Chuck Liddell (c) vs. Jeremy Horn (UFC LHW Title)
-Randy Couture vs. Mike Van Arsdale
-Frank Trigg vs. Georges St. Pierre
-Diego Sanchez vs. TBA

(Tim Sylvia and David Terrell are also rumored to be on this card)


trigg v st pierre should be a war - match of the year candidate

also delighted to see horn vback in the big shows - arguably top 5 fighter but has not foguht in the 'big two' since 2002

This is going to be a great event.. Trigg & Georges St. Pierre is a must happen fight. Horn is going to have his hands full with Chuck this time around. Chuck has come on alot since they last fought but in fairness, so has Jeremy. Jeremy is probbaly the most respected fighter in MMA today and not one person is questioning why he is getting his shot. I think that's cool. I wonder who they'll have Diego up against? I'm pretty sure it will be at 170.

Liddell`ll (!) crucify him this time.
He`s waited long enough for the belt, don`t think anyone is gonna take it from him for a LONG time...

Pierre - no contest. i reckon he`ll dominate the welter. division once he gets the belt.(i`m absolutely certain he`ll get it soon enough!) that man has serious skills.

Couture just because i don`t know much about Van Arsdale and Randy is a UFC veteran.

If they don`t put in a first-timer to match him what about Sanchez vs. Lawler/Rivera/Baroni?

Diego won't be fighting at 185.. I'm sure of it. He'll drop down to 170.. They are all 185lb fighters.

dont agree with a few of your points - liddell crucity horn - he may ko him 9though noi one has yet - and just thionk of horns record) - i genuinely thing that he is as dangerous a fighter that liddell will ever face

as for pierre - i agree he is something special but as much as i dislike trigg, he is more than capable of taking anyone out - i dont see it as a no contest - at all

baroni is now signed with pride so i dont expect to see him in there, lawler is a posibility, esp with tko falling through
