WEC 36 Postponed Due to Hurricane Ike

Sherdog has the scoop:

Hurricane Ike -- a Category 3 storm with sustained wins of 115 miles per hour that could threaten South Florida by the middle of next week -- forced the postponement of WEC 36 on Friday in Hollywood, Fla.

The event, originally scheduled for Sept. 10, was moved to Nov. 5

That's a total drag, let's hope this is the worst damage Ike causes. I don't know about you, but I'm sick of hurricanes.

Dude...

Two months? That seems pretty wild. Sonnen is never going to get his rematch.

This sucks. I was just getting psyched for this show when I saw this at MMA Junkie. I am glad that the WEC and officials in Florida are acting early in taking precautions.

This Blows....

How many UFC 90 commercials do you think we’ll see during the Nov. 5th broadcast?? I say 20. Are you taking the over or under????

Haha, maybe Ike's taking orders from Dana.

Don’t want to make light of the situation, people get killed in these storms, yada yada yada, but this really does make for a picture-perfect scenario in which WEC can pimp UFC 91.

There is no such thing as innocence, only degrees of guilt.

Damn

I was really looking forward to this.. probably more than the next UFC fight night. Pulver/Garcia, Rosholt, Faber, Filho/Sonnen II.

This is a joke, right? 2 months? Did Fightlinker write this? Filho at -160 was gonna pay for my kid’s college fund. Now what the eff am I gonna tell little Timmy?

I’m sick of hurricanes too. Now I’m off to go get my plywood to cover my windows.

You're sick of hurricanes?

I live 10 miles from the Gulf Coast – My house was the only one not to flood in our neighborhood during Gustav. The sheriff essentially locked down our parish after dusk to prevent looting. We were without power, water, or sewer systems for days. The scary part is we were lucky to have this little damage! Now Ike’s in the gulf scaring the crap out of us and already caused WEC to be canceled! How much worse will it get?
