Rampage Jackson Reconsiders Career Change
"I’m a fighter, but I tried to go into a whole new adventure and didn’t even know anything about tours and stuff in a movie. I had no idea I had to do this," said Jackson. "I was just focusing on this fight and I wasn’t even worrying about (the other movie offers). I got to make a decision because it looks like it would be hard to do both if you’re gonna take time off and fight guys accountable here in the UFC…I’ve just got to think about which one I want to do."

Dan Lauzon tells the Boston Herald that his brother Joe and other coaches have given up on him, just two weeks before his UFC 114 fight with Efrain Escudero:
"This is going to be the first fight I don’t have them in my corner," Dan Lauzon said last week. "They’re not going to be there to support me. It (stinks). I don’t really know what I did to deserve this. I wouldn’t do that to anybody. I wouldn’t do that to my brother, I wouldn’t do that to anyone in my gym. It’s not right."
"He trained better than he did before (the ultimatum), but he still didn’t fulfill everything we wanted him to do," Joe Lauzon said. "We said you need to train 10 or 11 times a week, and he didn’t do that. I don’t think he’s done that one time."
Dan Lauzon disputed that account, saying that no specific guidelines were ever presented to him.
"In my eyes, I was doing everything right," he said. "I was making it to the gym; I was training hard two times a day. I was doing everything right. I was completely blown away."
"I was completely hurt by it, especially my brother Joe. I don’t think anybody would ever do that to their brother. I can’t think of anyone else that would ever do that to their brother and just tell them, ’Hey, you’re on your own.’"
"I think I’m going to be pretty much looking for a new gym and new coaches to train with," he said. "People I can actually count on and rely on and not somebody that’s going to halfway through a camp say, ’Hey sorry, you’re going out there alone, good luck.’ "
Lauzon scrambled to find new cornermen and will have WEC fighter Josh Grispi, "Ultimate Fighter" alum John Clarke and training partner Brandon Chase with him in Las Vegas.

Thiago Tavares is pulling out of his UFC 114 bout with Melvin Guillard due to an elbow injury suffered in training, according to BJPenn.com, who spoke with his manager. No replacement opponent for Guillard has been named yet.
"The information was disclosed exclusively to BJPENN.COM while on the phone with Alex Davis, the man who represents all of the ATT fighters. He stated that Tavares recently "hyper extended" his elbow in training. Which is the second injury of this sort to plague the lightweight prospect and as a result he will not be able to compete on the "Rampage vs. Evans" card."
[UPDATE] - Waylon Lowe in:
"Waylon Lowe (8-2) comes to the UFC on a 6-fight winning streak including his last victory in King of the Cage over UFC veteran Steve Berger by knockout."

Speaking with MMAFighting.com, UFC light heavyweight Jason Brilz discusses getting the call to step in and face Antonio Rogerio Nogueira on the main card of UFC 114: "Then I got home, put the kids in the bath and thought, you know, I'm going to have that beer now. I cracked the beer, had about two sips, then a Virginia number pops up on my phone. It's Joe Silva. I was like, well, I guess I'm not going to be able to finish this beer." Still thinking it was a preliminary card fight, Brilz agreed to step in before Silva told him who he'd be facing. Only after he asked whether it would be Cane or Diabate or someone else on the prelim portion did Silva tell him he'd be facing top 10 light heavyweight Antonio Rogerio Nogueira, who'd been left without an opponent after former UFC light heavyweight champ Forrest Griffin pulled out with an injury. "I thought, okay," said Brilz. "I already said yes to the fight. I'm not going to back down now." "At this point in my career, I don't really care who I fight. I just want to be tested. And Little Nog, you know, he'll definitely test me. What the heck. I'm thinking, co-main event in Vegas? Sign me up." "Just like in my other fights, I'm going to come right at him. I'm going to worry about his game, but I'm not going to deviate from my game to accommodate him. I'm going to throw my game plan out there. If it works, great. If it doesn't, well, I haven't thought that far." UFC 114: Rampage vs. Evans coverage Photo HT: MMA Weekly
