Very happy about this as well, I knew there was a big announcement due today but have to agree with you, didn't see this coming at all.
 
Think it's great news for fight fans, this should really open up a lot of really interesting fights for the future.
Wonder if anyone the ufc will drop down to Bantamweight and Featherweight?
 
Amazing news on the Merger and hell yeah WEC should claim back there bonuses, and its good there getting paid correctly now.

I dont know how some of the other MMA organisations even function I see some strikeforce pay results and there like $2000? rather be a cleaner for a month or 2 lol must force these MMA fighters to work in Mcdonalds while training....

Anyhow this surely means were gonna start seeing 2 UFC events per month ? or even more TUF shows with more weight classes....

I certainly hope brock isnt out of the ufc for 6 months... hes gotta have at least a good 2-3 big name fights for 2011 before going against Cain :)
 
Well regarding TUF, I'm sure Dana was talking about a BW or FW TUF season earlier this year, but I saw a scroll on the bottom of the latest episode of TUF saying WW and MW tryouts are beginning for season 13.

So we might see the lighter weights TUF this time next year

Pretty sure I at least saw it for 8pm on Sky HD

Dana White was saying yesterday at a Q&A that UFC will be introducing a flyweight division soon, the roster is gonna be stacked !

Yeah, flyweight starts next year after WEC merged with the UFC. Jose Aldo is on the card for UFC 125 I believe.
 
^

I guess that's because of the ban of mma on german tv

As far as the UFC/WEC is concerned, I think I read that there were some feather and bantamweight matches booked for the TUF 12 finale, looking like a good card so far.
 
Duane Ludwig vs. Nick Osipczak

lol what the hell? how couldnt Ludwig finish Osipczak in the 3rd.... it was his golden chance since it looked like 2 rounds to Osipczak, he was gassed totally in the 3rd he had nothing.

But he won on spilt anyway lol...
 
I'm glad UFC 122 didnt get its own thread as it was an awful non-event, I hope Machida vs Page is better next week.
 
Disappointing event, but after watching Haye/Harrison it retrospectively looks great.

Undercard fights were good fun, was I the only one that thought Nate got robbed ?

And talking of **** judges, one gave a 30-28 score in the first match !!

Oh and gutted we missed out on Rivera/Sakara :/
