Another knee injury takes out a fighter of the UFC roster. “It never ends” the UFC president Dana White
said on Twitter. Shane Carwin (12-2 MMA, 4-2 UFC) is out of his fight against Roy Nelson (17-7 MMA, 4-3 UFC). They were expected to fight in the main event of the TUF 16 Finale on December 15 at The Joint at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas.
White said that Carwin blew out his knee and he has already begun searching a new fighter to face Nelson. Carwin and Nelson coached opposite teams on the current 16th season of “The Ultimate Fighter”.
The other main event remains Pat Barry (7-5 MMA, 4-5 UFC) vs

“I said it in Brazil, and I’ll say it again: Hell yes, they will (fight)” Dana White said Tuesday during MetroPCS online chat.
But it will not be easy, because both of them have other plans (watch Anderson Silva UFC 153 post fight interview) and Jon ‘Bones’ Jones (17-1 MMA, 11-1 UFC) said he wants to be a heavyweight as early as next year. Anderson Silva (33-4 MMA, 16-0 UFC) has always said that his desire is to fight welterweight champ Georges St Pierre (22-2 MMA, 16-2 UFC), who will make his most-anticipated return in the Octagon in less than 3 weeks (UFC 154: St Pierre vs Condit).
White, though, isn’t buying that argument: “I guarantee you that fight will absolutely happen. When people say that, it’s crazy because a lot of people believe that Jon Jones should be fighting at heavyweight anyway,” he said. “So to say that GSP vs Anderson Silva doesn’t make
Sometimes words speak louder than actions, and this can be the case: a living kickboxing legend will provide a deep reservoir of experience for the three-man commentary team that will be calling the action for fight fans around the world at the GLORY 3 Rome ‘Final 8’ event at the historic PalaLottomatica arena in Rome, Italy on Saturday Nov. 3 (Glory World Series quarterfinals). Ramon Dekkers blazed a trail for Europeans in the Muay Thai world at a time when it was thought none but native Thais could be successful in the sport and, to this day, if he enters an arena in Thailand, he will receive a standing ovation. Dekkers will provide colour commentary for the event, which will see one 70 kilogram (154 pound) tournament competitor walk away with a tournament grand prize of $300,000.
He will be supported by retired MMA legend and first-ever UFC Middleweight Champion Frank Shamrock, as well as former PRIDE Fighting

Now is official: Pat Barry (7-5 MMA, 4-5 UFC) and Shane del Rosario (11-1 MMA, 0-1 UFC) will meet on the main card of the TUF 16 Finale on December 15 at Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas.
The main event will be a fight between veteran “TUF 16” coaches Shane Carwin (12-2 MMA, 4-2 UFC) and Roy Nelson (17-7 MMA, 4-3 UFC).
Pat Barry, one of the UFC’s most popular heavyweights is just 2-4 in his past six fights. However, he fought always with great opponents, including Mirko ‘Cro Crop’ Filipovic, Cheick Kongo (five star match for one of the most unpredictable endings ever!!!), Stefan Struve and Lavar Johnsony, so his bad record is understandable. His last victory was a great bout with Christian Morecraft on January 20, 2012 (Fight of the Night – look at that punch!).
Shane del Rosario, the first American to become the
I know, I know. You don’t believe it. But what was at first a joke, than a fantasy, an unbelievable rumor, now seems to become reality. Roy Jones Jr vs Kimbo Slice will take place as part of festivities to celebrate Jamaica’s 50th anniversary in December. The match has an appropriate name: “Beauty and the Beast”; all the details for the fight are
