According to Wiki, Dana has plans of moving this fight to another event in November. If this is right, free title fight really was too good to be true.

Maybe it will be free in November. Fedor is rumored to fight that same month.

1) The event that Dana said he's looking at headlining Penn/Sanchez with would be a third event in November, one that he said would not be on PPV, Spike, or HBO. That's fueled speculation that he's closing in on a network TV deal, because that seems to be the only other possible destination.

2) Dana also said that Hendo has been lobbying to get a rematch with Silva to take place at UFC 105. But Dana wants to wait and see what happens between Maia/Marquardt this weekend before committing to anything. My guess is if Maia wins and comes out relatively unscathed, he gets the next shot, but it probably wouldn't be at 105. But if Marquardt wins or Maia gets banged up, I'm betting there's a good chance Silva/Hendo headlines 105.

Regardless, it's still virtually guaranteed we're getting one free title fight in November. And now there's a very real chance we see both Penn/Sanchez and Silva/Hendo free in the same month.

Sanchez imo is one of the most interesting athletes in the world. That fight he had with Guida a while back was one of my favorite fights of all time. So damn intense, I love it!

I highly doubt he will win against Penn, but on the flipside I think of all the current champions right now Penn is the most vulnerable to lose his belt.
