Anthony Johnson Really Wants to Fight John Howard:
"I'm trying to fight in March. I'm trying to fight punk a** John Howard, but I don't think he wants to fight. He got his win over Dennis Hallman. He got the credit to fight me, so why don't he do it? He signed the contract once to fight me and then he backed out and now he's renegotiating or his managers and agents are, whatever, are being dumb about the renegotiating process. Just come on and sign the fight; sign the contract and fight me and stop running like a little b*tch. I want to fight him. I really do. I seen this interview where he said he was going to make me pay for what I said, so I'm looking forward to seeing that. John Howard, put your dukes up lets do this and I'm going to knock your other tooth out because I know you got a f*cked up grill. I'm going to give him the business."

You don’t mess with someone who is going to give you the business! That’s some scary stuff right there. Make the fight happen, I want to see Rumble destroy someone again.

I like Rumble
But “he got the credit to fight me”? He just won and you just lost, so you’re not exactly sitting on a perch, hombre..

This whole interview sounds strange/fishy to me.

Johnson sounds pretty bitter
But that matchup does make sense at this time. The UFC’s young WW studs need to stop calling out dudes like Matt Hughes. The only guy Hughes will be fighting are guys like Renzo, and maybe Hallman.
Honestly, If I were Hughes, i’d be calling for that Hallman fight to try and get some kind of redemption from those 2 earlier sub losses (unless he knows that Dennis has his number)

Seemed pretty evident to me that a few of these signings were tailored for Hughes, but then they kept signing guys that seem fit to fight him (first Trigg, then Hallman and now Renzo). Pretty strange stuff..

and Baroni!
they’re building a pretty decent WW senior circuit… there’s serra too…
there’s another one on LHW too.. chuck, tito, randy, coleman, (could include bonnar too), and Wanderlei if he loses against bisping?

Okaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay
Let me get this straight
Rumble gets arrested for domestic Violence.
Than he gets hurt and cant fight Matt Brown
Than he doesnt make weight for his next fight
Than he gets beat up badly by Josh K.
While John Howard never lost as a Welter Weight and is 3 – 0 in the UFC.
Main event type stuff here if you ask me. So when is the UFC/WEC going to be on NBC???
NBC ratings would soar on Sat or Friday nights.

![John Howard (13-4, 3-0 UFC) vs Anthony Johnson (8-3) This March:
After a lot of smack talk and some genuine bad blood between both guys, it looks like the two will finally meet in the octagon.
John Howard on Twitter: "Me and Anthony crumble Johnson will be fighting. Time to shut him up. See u soon crumble. ur ass is mine Here comes the Doom!"
He also says the fight will happen this March. They have two cards planned on that month, the UFC card on Versus, and UFC 111 on New Jersey about a week later.
[UPDATE]: MMA Junkie reports that the bout will take place on the main card of UFN 21 on Versus
