The French website, fightsport.fr, is reporting that Fedor Emelianenko could end up facing former UFC heavyweight champion Andrei Arlovski at the next Affliction show. In the article, Fedor mentions that the next Affliction show is set for November, but he has asked to move the card up to October so he has time to train for a New Year's Eve fight with DREAM (possibly against Mirko Cro Cop). Fedor also mentions that he would like to face Josh Barnett in early-2009. Affliction won't make anything final until they figure out the contract status of Randy Couture.

A lightweight clash between Kurt “Batman” Pellegrino and Thiago Tavares will headline the preliminary portion of UFC 88, according to a new report on UFC.com.

UFC 88 will take place on Sept. 6 in Atlanta, GA at the Phillips Arena and will be headlined by a light heavyweight bout between Chuck Liddell and Rashad Evans.

Both Pellegrino and Tavares will be attempting to rebound from losses.

Pellegrino last competed in April, submitting to a triangle choke against Nate Diaz at UFC Fight Night 13. He is 3-3 lifetime in the UFC and 15-4 overall.

Despite being the favorite, Tavares was knocked out last month by Matt Wiman at UFC 85. The loss dropped Tavares’ career record in the UFC to 3-2.

Cote and Silva is on for UFC 90 in Chicago. Looks like we might have another good card...them which Silva will win for obvious reasons, and Sanchez-Alves!

o vs Babalu for the next affliction card. Babalu will walk though him….

[djohn14]

OOOO...BABALU!!! And the paychecks just keep getting larger.

[dallaskd]

o vs Babalu for the next affliction card. Babalu will walk though him….

why do you say that? i like o in this

[Evan]

why do you say that? i like o in this

Babalu is a badass, far advanced from o.

I don't believe this fight will happen until I see it officially announced though. Too big of a risk for o. Another loss is a disaster for o. Its been since 2006 since he had a legit win unless you buy into Ken Shamrock.

Doesn't make sense for him to take it right now and I can't imagine o will be easy to sign...he will probably want some crazy pay structure and I am not sure affliction can afford another Fedor'ish type pay out.

I can see them fighting eventually but it would seem like o would want a couple easier fights to get his name back up a bit.

Josh Gross of SI.com has a very interesting article about the health of Quinton "Rampage" Jackson up on the popular sports magazine's website right now. In the article it mentions that Jackson has fired longtime manager, trainer, and friend Juanito Ibarra. It also mentions that Jackson is out of psychiatric observation and is attending outpatient treatment daily and that the UFC is interested in having Jackson fight Wanderlei Silva in November depending on Jackson's health.

Graciefighter.com is reporting that EliteXC is very interested in putting a Nick Diaz/KJ Noons rematch on the October 4 EliteXC CBS show. Diaz is very interested in the fight, however it is unclear if KJ Noon's camp will accept the bout. If Noon's camp does not accept the fight it is very likely that Diaz could end up facing Hayato "Mach" Sakurai at the September DREAM event. In another interesting note, DREAM has yet to pay Diaz for his victory over Katsuya Inoue back in May.

I guess this is my own personal topic now!!!!!!!!...anyway I really like this fight, and this card is shaping up to be steller!


The latest bout added to UFC 90 on Oct. 25 is a middleweight bout between Brazilian Thales Leites and Croatian Goran Reljic, according to a report on MMAjunkie.com.

Leites had been rumored as scheduled to fight Dean Lister during UFC Fight Night 15 in September, but the match was scuttled after Lister reportedly pulled out of the fight.

Leites could become an eventual number one contender for the UFC middleweight le currently held by Anderson Silva, as he has won four consecutive fights in the UFC.

He has just one blemish on his 13-1 overall MMA record, having lost his UFC debut to Martin Kampmann during the live season finale for the fourth season of “The Ultimate Fighter.”

Since the loss, he has bounced back with wins over Pete Sell, Floyd Sword, Ryan Jensen, and his most recent win, a controversial split decision against Nathan Marquardt at UFC 85 this past June.

Reljic made his UFC debut at UFC 84 this past May as a light heavyweight. He upset Wilson Gouveia with a TKO at 3:15 of round 2 and improved his record to 8-0 in the process. Dropping down to 185 pounds, Reljic is someone who could possibly shake up the division.

UFC 90 will take place just outside of Chicago in Rosemont, Ill. and will emanate from the Allstate Arena. The card will be headlined by a UFC middleweight le defense by Silva, who is set to face challenger Patrick Cote. A welterweight bout between Diego Sanchez and Thiago Alves is expected to take place on the card as well.

don't worry...sometimes I have gone 3 pages without anyone posting but myself. Everyone reads everything...just sometimes you nod your head and don't comment.

The “Big Frog” is coming for Torres.

Yesterday, Jeff "Big Frog" Curran announced that he was going to reinvent himself as a 135lb fighter in the WEC and said he deserves to have the WEC le around his waist. Jeff also stated that he should be fighting in December again although there is nothing official.
