I think in the case of Mayweather, he's a huge draw. He would draw MMA and boxing fans for at least one fight. Now, it's not going to draw all boxing fans, but plenty would watch. It would draw almost all MMA fans, depending on who he fought.
BUT, this WILL NOT happen. It's a PR stunt by Cuban.
UFC Fight Night 13, April 2nd
Florian vs. Lauzon
Bonnar vs. Hammil -- only rumored at this point
I am interested to see Lauzon after all his time training with Penn, since we didn't get to see much against his last opponent. Should be a great test to see where Lauzon is at.
Former UFC heavyweight champion Andrei Arlovski, a 28-year-old fighter who hasn’t competed professionally in nearly nine months, will likely be added to a UFC fight card sometime in the next couple months.
UFC President Dana White mentioned the timetable during Saturday’s post-UFC 79 press conference.
“We’re talking to (Arlovski) right now,” White said. “He’ll probably fight in a couple months.“

Not a bad card at all for a smaller org...
Davis Loiseau ........Dude has never recovered from that Tanner beating...
This really is a solid small show card. Especially if it had been 3 years ago. It should be labeled "Career revival"
Sobral might be the most active fighter of 08 that isn't being pushed to death by the IFL.

UFC 81
Nate Marquardt vs Jeremy Horn
http://mmajunkie.com/2008/01/09/jere...rdt-at-ufc-81/
Man I am so excited
so kongo beats crocop and fights a bum? he should fight AA
AA is having a contract issue.
Thank Dana and his "1 fight left on your contract" freeze play...
HH isn't a "bum"...he's still a tough guy and a hard guy to finish. Kongo better not screw around going into that fight...hitting HH with 4 or 5 nutshots will help his cause too...
Heath is an elite fighter who doesn't know how to train or create a game plan.
Franklin added to 84 and Lutter moved from 82 to 84...

cAnadA..representA!
Maybe I am confused about cards, but I thought 83 was in Canada and Serra vs GSP was on that card?
and the rumors are
Shogun vs TBA
Franklin vs Lutter
I figured out what happened...there was a mystery event in London in March, which is now shown as UFC 83...
Corrected 2 posts up...
