I wonder which Belfort will show up.

Everytime Vitor fights in Brazil he seems like a man posessed. Rockhold getting thrown to the lions... Stylistically it should be a good fight right?

Hell yea. I'm all for the international cards regardless of who's fighting. I wonder too if Belfort will hulk up for this one.

Jacare-Philippou is on this card as well now.

Yeah, I'm liking this matchup a lot.

Same here. I think Jacare should get the W, but Costa is no joke. He has good striking and awesome TDD. I wanted to see Jacare-Weidman more, but with Rashad losing i'm guessing Weidman will be getting a title shot soon.

You read my mind, every time Vitor fights in Brazil he is virtually unstoppable..

Manny Gambuyrian is off the card.......he is injured AGAIN. Nik Lentz is taking his place.

Phillipou had to pull out of the fight because of a cut above his eye. I was really looking forward to that one, so it's a bit of a bummer for me. It must be a hell of a cut, I'm kind of surprised they'd pull him with this much time until the event.

I still want to see Jacare fight though, so hopefully they give him a replacement. I'm just not really sure who would be available on this short of notice and still be a worthy contender for him. I don't think the UFC would want to match him up with just anybody.

Jacare is fighting Chris Camozzi now.

Jacare is fighting Chris Camozzi now.

And Rafael Natal, who was originally slated to fight Camozzi, now meets Joao Zeferino.

I have no idea when the last card was but I've been like a fish out of water waiting for the next one.

At this point I don't even care who's on this card. I just want to see some damn fights.
