-Ryan Jimmo vs. Rameau Thierry Sokoudjou

-Terry Martin vs. Allen Hope

-Richie Whitson vs. Kajan Johnson

-Adam Lynn vs. Curtis Demarce

-Mukai Maromo vs. Sabah Fadai

-Ryan Chiappe vs. Cody Krahn

 

that's sneaking up on us, should be a nice little show. Always like the MFC stuff. Be interested to see how Sokoudjou looks, he's a constant disappointment but maybe he can pull out one of those special moments. Jimmo is one of the most underrated fighters in MMA, if he wins this the UFC has to come calling surely. He's a karate based fighter and i read not long ago in a quote from Jimmo that he's been hit something like 5 times in his last 10 fights, madness.

Yeah I like MFC, some good little shows they put on and a nice mix of names and newcomers. I'll be watching that.Just seen this on Tito Ortiz's twitter aswell. Apparently UFC 140 in December is getting a new main event. Had a feeling Nog vs Mir 2 wouldn't headline. Sounds like a big fight is in the works.

Former pro wrestler turned MMA fighter Bobby Lashley has his next fight set. The former Strikeforce fighter will face Darrill Schoonover in the main event of a Shark Fights show on November 11. Schoonover is the reigning Shark Fights Heavyweight champion (though he has not defended the title since winning it in 2009), and the bout will be a title fight.Bloody Elbow

new quote from Chael Sonnen

"You tell Anderson Silva I'm coming over and I'm kicking down his backdoor and patting his little lady on the ass and I'm telling her to make me a steak, medium-rare just how I like it."

I'm more worried about him 'kicking down Anderson's back door' than anything with Mrs Silva

Jon Jones vs Rashad Evans for the LHW title is planned as the main event for UFC 140

The fight is not yet official, but appears likely to be announced within the next 24-48 hours. UFC president Dana White told MMA Fighting that he could not yet announce a UFC 140 main event, but might possibly be able to do so by the end of the day.Before that can happen, at least one hurdle must be overcome. Evans has to be cleared from a hand injury suffered in his recent UFC 133 win over Tito Ortiz. That injury required pins to be inserted into his hands, but Evans' coach Mike Van Arsdale told MMA Fighting that he was scheduled to visit the doctor on Wednesday and expected Evans to be cleared.

source - http://www.mmafighting.com/2011/10/05/ufc-...140-main-event/Tremendous. Called it in the UFC 135 thread. This is great news

Sonnen really is great. I don't know if you guys are familiar with it but Chael was on Bruce Buffer's radio show - also available as a podcast - a few weeks ago and he was a great guest; very interesting, very funny and seems like a genuinely cool guy too. I just hope he gets back in there and gets rid of Anderson sooner rather than later.

Sneaky edit there Tilde.

 

 

 

Anyway this is what Dana said on Twitter about it:

 

Don't listen to these HACK shit websites!! Jones vs Evans is not true.

 

Just did a 2 hour press conf at 11 this am and told ALL the media that jones vs Evans would NOT happen @140. Then HACKS say it is.

 

Neil Davidson was the ONLY reporter that called me and asked if it was true b4 running story and I said no it's not! #realreporter

 

For the media guys who live on some other planet and didn't know Rashad Evans has pins in his thumb and is out for a while!!!!

Matt Mitrione pic from his twitter. This has to be a photoshop. Right?boRCu.jpgHe's been on the Dolce Diet recently but fuck me..surely that pic isn't real.

He does look immense, I get the feeling though he is just one of those people that has the body type to get into that sort of shape so it shouldn't really come as a suprise.

Holy Shit Meathead must have really got his training together if hes dropped that much weight. Very excited to see how he performs in his next fight. Wasn't Dolce saying he could get Big Country down to Light Heavyweight?
