He technically had a fight scheduled and fought with Pride, but at the moment I don't think he is under Zuffa contract. ALso, I was going to attend that GFC show with press credentials, but at the last second, I ended up not going to various reasons. Boy, am I glad I didn't take the drive down to Mohegan Sun only to get told 1 hour before the event that they were cancelling. @RJ,

Jeremy Horn will never stop, he has what 70,000 fights now. he will be 127 years old and still be a tough fight for anyone. Rizzo is a pretty big surprise i figured he would be sippin drinks on a beach in Brazil for the rest of his days. p.s.

He is fighting none other than PEDRO RIZZO in "The Art Of War" and I was a little confused on that. Also I was surprised to see Jeremy Horn returning to the fight game... wow that was a bit of a shocker, I thought he was done for good, as I thought of Pedro Rizzo. Dr J

I think the only thing they have with rampage is him saying hes gonna whoop chucks azzz.. I wanna hear more from Rampage!! let rogan interview him or something.. What ever happened to Rogans show inside the UFC? that was a great show too..

Randy vs Gonzaga.. wow! very unpredictable fight. GSP vs Kos.. its hard to say because Kos really impressed me in his last fight with Diego and GSP was lack luster vs Serra, one is on an all time high, the other at an all time low. I really think GSP is on tilt after losing his first title defence to an inferior fighter. Lets hope he doesnt follow in louiseaus footsteps.. Huerta vs Crane and Joe Daddy vs pellegrino? man.. why didnt they just have Huerta fight Stevenson??? great test for Huerta, because in my book hes yet to really be tested. Joe should be fighting for the title soon.. It should definately be a great night of fights Really looking forward to UFC 74 next weekend.. some great fights, very interested to see what will happen..
