Looks like Cain is not without an opponent for UFC 99 for long. Heath Herring is going to lace up the boots after getting steam rolled by Brock Lesnar last August to try and stop Cain’s winning streak.
This is a terrible matchup for Heath in every capacity. Cain is a better wrestler and a better striker.

It was recently announced by Dana White that Michael Bisping will in fact be facing Dan Henderson at UFC 100 on July 11th. Many have argued this will serve as the main event for the pay per view being that after the reality show both fighters will be in the public’s eye. I disagree and think this fight will serve as the third fight from the end behind Georges St-Pierre vs. Thiago Alves and the yet unannounced main event.
That being said I wanted to spend some time breaking …

Michael Bisping is finally going to get his shot at fighting a top 5 fighter in the division of 185 pounds…against felllow Ultimate Fighter Coach Dan Henderson.
UFC President Dana White today confirmed the long-rumored match up in an interview with Setanta.com.
This is going to be a pretty interesting matchup because Bisping has had problems with wrestlers before…Matt Hamil and Rashad Evans so let’s hope he shores that part up of his game.

In gearing up for UFC 100 on July 11th where Georges St-Pierre will meet his toughest test in Thiago Alves I think it is time we examine where Thiago came from and what wins have lead him to be the Number 1 contender in the UFC Welterweight Division.
Thiago on fight night will come into the ring at 190 to 199 pounds.  Now you may wonder how in the hell can he fight at the 170 pound division but come in the night of the fight at 199 pounds.  Well Thiago …

Not exactly earth-shattering news at this point, but for the first time news about current UFC Welterweight Champion Georges St-Pierre defending his belt against Thiago Alves at UFC 100 is coming from the mouth of the big man himself, Dana White, president of the UFC.  Here’s what he told Montreal-based CKAC Sports 730AM:
“I’m pretty confident that UFC 100 will have Georges St. Pierre on the card.  UFC 100 will more than likely have Georges St. Pierre defending his welterweight title.”
Accoding to MMA Weekly, White also confirmed that the promotion’s 100th …

“Oh, man. Holy s**t. I’ve told everybody, when people asked me before the B.J. fight, ‘I can’t even think about UFC 100 right now.’ Now we’ve sat down and we’ve talked about it, and I’m guaranteeing you now, UFC 100 is going to kick f**king ass.”

Expectations couldn’t be higher for UFC’s centennial event, thanks to the legions of rumors already swirling the event still five months away.  Some of the rumored matchups appear to be virtual locks (see Georges St-Pierre v. Thiago Alves), …

Recently on the Sherdog radio show Thiago Alves indictated that he would in fact face Georges “Rush” St-Pierre or GSP as most people call him.  To me this is a pretty dangerous fight for Georges early.  Thiago Alves will come into UFC 100 weighing somewhere around 195 pounds and posses plenty of ammunition to be troubling for Georges if he can not get the takedowns going early.

We will keep you posted on the matchups for UFC 100 as they come in.
