I wonder if Antwain Britt is fighting at the TUF 8 finale. He is a beast in person and it looked like he won his fight pretty easily on the show. Ryan Jimmo is a good fighter, he just beat Rick Roufus this past weekend so that says alot on how good Britt might be. It would be to see him fighting in the UFC.

Everyone is replaceable. They shouldn’t look a gift horse in the mouth.

They want to be able to use him in video games in case he ever gets a belt…they can then use him as a past champion in future releases of the UFC game.

The NFL does the same thing, except the players are unionized so they don’t get cut.

Un real none the less Justin, where is he to go? StrikeForce!! Affliction?? O ya there is some things going on in Japan aren’t there..?. How will Kos and Swick react, isn’t Fitch on the cover of Ultimate Comebacks that I’ve been seeing being displayed on SpikE? Interesting we shall see in due time yet to let go of one of the top 3 or 5 WW in the world slightly shocking to say the least

I have to believe that part of the reason for them wanting lifetime rights is for THQ, and UFC, not just UFC. And because if it wasn’t a lifetime license, they may have to later pull the game. Not a good situation, I hope that they can revisit the contract so that more fighters don’t leave because of this. I also hope this is just a rumor.

I just read on the Bloody Elbow that the UFC has just cut Jon Fitch. He would not sign his likeness and name away to them for the new video game.

Burns v Johnson is a hell of a backstory does it not, the story of redemption que no, who can’t get behind that… Could the UFC put bigger stars out there for us perhaps but with all the great fights coming up and all fighters needing to earn their money why not put a story of redemption outthere?

Seriously, Mcdonald vs. Gouveia would have been a stronger main event. I don’t understand how Burns vs Johnson II is the main event here. Compared to previous main events (Tanner vs. Grove, Huerta vs. Guida, Penn vs. Pulver) Burns vs Johnson does not suffice.
