Joe Daddy is the best choice. If the UFC feels like changing around some more match-ups, a rematch with Tyson Griffin makes a lot of sense for both guys at this point.

UFC is cursed right now

How many injuries have there been for upcoming shows the past few weeks?

Ive heard that Alves has a PCL tear, so don’t look like he will be fighting Fitch, injuries keep piling up =|

Man, Pell's one of my favorites

but this is good for Edgar, he deserved to fight higher competition. With Guida and Florian tied up, Stevenson might be the best, but it’s a short notice fight.

Give him Kimbo.

Give him Kimbo

Edgar will still win the decision

I thought the Houston vs Kimbo is on for UFC 107?

MMAJunkie has it rumored for the finale.

God I hope it’s not Veach. Nothing against him. He’s undefeated and all, but he’s not someone Edgar should be fighting to get to a title right now. Hope Matt Veach’s friends/family aren’t reading this…

He tweeted that He's fighting Matt Veach now...
Due to pelligrino pulling because of injury, looks like I will be fighting the tough Matt Veach Dec 5th.

Man, shouldn’t Edgar be getting someone a little higher profile than Pellegrino or Matt Veach? I’d understand if he was coming off a loss, but the guy just beat Sean Sherk!

I agree. Lot of matches that don’t make sense to me happening now. Jim Millar vs Tyson Griffin springs to mind also, Griffin should be fighting tougher people. Brian Stann vs Rodney Wallace anyone?

Not a lot of slots for guys from the show…

He’s right you know.

This shirt is "dry clean only", which means it's dirty.

Houston Alexander vs Kimbo Slice is going to end quickly. I honestly don’t feel that it is a safe fight at all for Kimbo Slice, and I can see him getting marauded by the Assassin. Sucks about Pellegrino vs Edgar. The thing is that there is no one readily available (unless someone takes a fight on short notice) in Lightweight. Coming off a win over Sean Sherk, Edgar needs to be fighting the top competition out there.

by chrisbboy82 on Oct 30, 2009 7:24 PM EDT reply actions  

Wow, Edgar is going to destroy Veach.

by jafotinatos on Oct 30, 2009 9:24 PM EDT reply actions  

Well at least hes fighting the tough Matt Veach and not the super lame weak version.

Seriously though I’m bummed it’s not Pellegrino. That fight was gonna be sweet

by MauiPimpin on Oct 31, 2009 12:09 AM EDT via mobile up reply actions  

Surely they could find someone better than Veach. Go and get Gomi…
