Who's he fighting?

hasnt been announced. i am not even positive that he is fighting. are u sure ccb? That is a stacked card if it is, hughes-GSP, Sylvia- Monson, Mir-Vera, and Joe Stevenson vs Hominick, and Bisping! That would be the best UFC card I recall, ever.

Rob S · 09-30-2006, 04:35 PM

just saw that nick diaz was on that card too :shock: a must buy imo

XxXdragonXxX · 09-30-2006, 04:36 PM

Ok, I just looked around a little to see who he was fighting and all I could find was Bisping vs. TBA...maybe they will put Hamill up against him.

I also saw something about Nick Diaz being on the card as well...I hate Diaz, so I hope they throw someone good at him so he gets whipped.

EDIT- Diaz will be fighting Graison Tibau, who I've never heard of...

Hamel fights petruzelli too close to that fight, They will more than likely have bisping against a Can so he can build up some momentum. Its been rumored in this thread gouveia and sakara are two rumored opponents.

Yeah, probably is too close...although they have Hughes fighting just under 2 months after his fight with Penn.

I think if UFC ever does Bisping vs Hamel they will play it up like Griffin vs Bonner and make it a full fledged rivalry. They are gonna have both fighters fight some cans get some win which will cause momentum to build than they will have them fight and that way they can have it as a Co Headliner on a PPV event. They will probably have Hamel destroy some people than he will come out like "I am the real ultimate fighter" and take shots at Bisping.

Yeah its all marketing Dana will do whatever he can to make a buck and a good rivalry gets peoples attention better.

From Bisping at Sherdog

"hi guys,
i'm fighting on the 11th of november. Cant say who against just yet, but no doubt it will soon be common knowledge.
I would of been fighting sooner but I injured myself training for my last fight. Cant wait to get back in there."

"I wouldnt call the guy im fighting a can. He won his last ufc appearance quite easily in under 3 minutes.
Yeah its at light heavy. Thats my natural weight class and I have no desire to drop down."

Thats why it's been said he's fighting Gouveia or Schafer

Well if it's between Schafer and Gouveia and the guy won his last fight in under 3 minutes, it's gotta be Schafer cause Gouveia's last fight went 3:23.

Going through the list of light heavy's at UFC.com, the only other guy that won his last fight in under 3 minutes is David Heath.

I'm pretty sure Hamill, Groves and Herman are all fighting at the Ortiz/Shamrock, free UFC event on spike. Oct 10 I think.

Not surprising really.

XxXdragonXxX · 10-04-2006, 02:09 PM

Yeah...not a very exciting card at all...but I'll watch it anyway.

Tito vs Dana White in a boxing match

http://www.insidefighting.com/betwee....aspx?uid=3171

That will be hilarious. Tito doesnt have a great stand up but im sure he will make a full outta dana. Does anyone know anything about Dana's capabilities in the ring/octagon? Does he train for nething...bjj, boxing muay thai etc..

He used to teach boxercise, if that helps

Actually it appears Dana did indeed do a bit of boxing, from wikipedia:

"I boxed before getting into submission fighting and got hooked. Actually, I owned three boxing gyms in Vegas. I trained and managed fighters and had a sports management company. One day I met Tito Ortiz and Chuck Liddell, whom I started representing, and I got into this huge contract negotiation with Bob Meyrowitz, the former owner of Tito Ortizs contract. Through that, Bob and I developed a mutual respect for one another, and I discovered he was selling UFC."
