It could be a Spike show. That was the rumor as of late February. But yeah, looking at the cards after that, there's nothing they can move up.

nah.... i think the TUF finals are like a week or two later.....Spike in the past has passed on adding these european shows when they are so closely placed to a pre-existing spike show......... but who knows i may be wrong...

It's mostly gonna be the really lower card guys though. Maybe 1 or 2 major names, but no big deal. They do have a shitload of guys signed and I can't imagine how hard Joe Silva's job is.

well that was fast, that performance by Kablib Starnes at the last ppv cost him his job, UFC let him go according to Yahoo...

"He just doesn't belong in the UFC and after his performance the other night, he should consider a new line of work," the UFC President told Yahoo.

Remember TUF? He couldn't fight b/c he cracked a rib. Dana should have known something then.

I've heard rumors that they're trying to get Evans matched up with James Irvin...wow if that ends up being the main event I'm pretty sure that show will do the lowest buy rate for UFC since the boom period started for them...

Evans vs. Irvin has no appeal and does nothing for Rashad.

Din Thomas sounds like he could be dropping down to 145 and heading to WEC.
