Chris Leben was supposed to fight Michael Bisping at Ufc 85 - That would’ve made a hell of a fight, but sadly it seems like its not gonna happen. Chris Leben was sentenced to 35 days in jail due to an old DUI issue.

That leaves him with not enough training time for the fight wick is June 7th.

There has been a replacement, Jason ‘Dooms’ Day will take over for Leben. Jason Day last fought in Ufc 83 where he TKO’d Alan Belcher.

UFC 85

Matt Hughes and Michael Bisping saves the day.

When Chuck ‘The iceman’ Liddell had to pull out of the fightcard, there were many british ufc fans that was sad about it.

But, Dana called his friend Matt Hughes and asked him to take a fight in London, and he said yes to fight Thiago Alves - If Thiago is able to win this one, he is most likely next in line for the title shot after Jon Fitch.

Also, a great matchup Homeboy Bisping Vs. Leben - two standup fighters, theres most def. a knockout here.

Jeremy Horn is BACK!

When Thales Leites had to pull out of the match against Nate ‘The Great’ Marquardt because of a broken hand - Jeremy Horn stepped up to the plate and became a great replacement.

They are scheduled to fight at UFC 81, February the second.

This will be a great middleweight matchup.

TUF 6 Winner

admin — Tue, 11 Dec 2007 07:58:46 +0000

No big surprises really, the winner of The Ultimate Fighter season 6 is Mac Danzig.

Tommy Speer was overwhelmed by Mac’s technique. It went quickly to the ground where Tommy was submitted by a rear naked choke in the first round.

Other notable fights was Warmachine against J-Rock wich really was a war - it went back and forth till’ finally Warmachine got a TKO over Rollins. Maybe a fight of the night.
