Thomas Gerbasi, UFC - With legal issues preventing middleweight contender Chris Leben from being able to prepare sufficiently for a June 7th bout with Michael Bisping in London, England, Canada's Jason 'Dooms' Day has stepped in to face 'The Count' in a featured bout on the UFC 85: Bedlam card at the O2 Arena."Obviously I was looking forward to the Leben fight but I guess it wasn't to be," said Bisping. "You have to respect Jason Day for stepping in on even shorter notice than myself. I am looking forward to really putting on a great performance in London."
Thomas Gerbasi, UFC - On June 21st, just days before Independence Day, the fireworks will get started a bit early at The Pearl Arena inside The Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas when some of MMA's top prospects and contenders clash on the undercard of The Ultimate Fighter: Team Rampage vs Team Forrest Finale.
Las Vegas, NV (USA) - In the upcoming premiere of "El Octágono del UFC" (The UFC's Octagon), renowned sportscasters and UFC commentators Troy Santiago and Victor Davila will take viewers through some of the most thrilling battles and over-the-top mixed martial arts action ever seen in the Ultimate Fighting Championship. "El Octágono del UFC", featuring Santiago and Davila as hosts, launches tomorrow night, Saturday, May 10, 2008 at 8pm ET/PT (7pm CT) on Galavisión.
On Saturday, May 31, the best mixed martial arts programming on television will be on Spike TV, as the network presents a special night dedicated to UFC® superstar Chuck "The Iceman" Liddell. The homage to Liddell will feature two Spike TV premiere events not to be missed by true UFC fans.
Dan Cramer, Team Rampage - I always get people telling me I don't look like a fighter, but all the comments about being in the Abercrombie catalog and stuff like that doesn't bother me at all. It's actually funny to me. For me, I just don't feel the need to get caught up in the prototypical image of a fighter.
CAUTION: SPOILERS INCLUDED - Team Forrest's Matt Brown will get his wish this week when he takes on his rival from Team Rampage, Jeremy May. Yeah, it's a grudge match, but even more is at stake for Quinton Jackson's squad, as they currently trail in The Ultimate Fighter: Team Rampage vs Team Forrest competition 3-0.
