I am absolutely stunned. I knew full well when buying tickets the card is at risk of being changed at any point, but I never imagined this could happen to the UK fans, esp with chuck. I am so so so down it's unreal. I have paid over my budget regarding the tickets, just because the ufc had chuck for the first time over here, and it's the only venue near me really. I agree that the Newcastle card could have been better. As for Dana doing ppv for free in the US, what about us who have paid more this time for tickets than the last ufc event at the O2? they were cheapest at £25 last time, this time the cheapest is £45 Kind thought that chuck maybe had something to do with the price, just a maybe, but no free programmes or merchandise vouchers our way eh?? ha ha. Still, altho I am well sad chuck is not fighting, I have had chance to simmer down and respect it all. I just hope they put someone very good in aswell as Verra, he is brilliant but I cannot deny that Chuck was the steal of the show for me and probably loads of others. I would like to see Franklin maybe vs Bisping, as said before by someone. What has Tim Sylvia got infront of him at the moment? I would like to see him alot. I dunno, I guess my imagination is just in topsturvy state as from the news of chuck. I hope it truly does turrn out an outstanding event. I guess my chance to see chuck will never materialise now, I am crushed. Get well soon Chuck. well, I am devastated at the news of chuck not attending. I am absolutely stunned.

Me and my freinds have spent a future on Flights, Hotels & Tickets - without Chuck the card sucks - replacing Chuck with irvin as a main event would be a joke and very disrespectful to UK fans!!! And Vera v Werdum is never a main event - Especially in front of 20,000 fans at the O2!! Best outcome here is a co-main event with Tito fighting Evans (if the UFC change the Mancida fight)and Bisping fighting either Leben or Franklin... I know s*** happens... but very dissapointed to not see Chuck fight! What an absolute load of s***!!

Bonnar can argue his injury hurt him in the first fight, I know it was a snooze fest but both fighters have improved, and it'd sell tickets.
