    With Nogueira off, this card becomes one of the worst in the last 5 years or so. Absolute garbage. This has to be a free card now.

    "just found out I'm firing Jon Bones Jones on March 21st in Denver Colorado. hope u heard it here first!!!!"

    However, Vera on Tuesday night posted a bulletin via his Twitter account, which he later deleted, stating that he had already been assigned a new opponent, the fast-rising Jon Jones, in an unannounced card on March 21 in Denver.

    Additional sources said Nogueira could be headed for UFC 111 on March 27 against an opponent to be determined.

    Rolles Gracie Can't wait to see the line for this fight. You can't go wrong with a 6'4 Gracie with sick BJJ comeing out of Greg Jacksons camp one can only Mostapha Al Turk is a heavy favorite.

    Coleman is the man. I went too his wrestling camp in our hometown long ago. Few years back I went to an mma event him and bo cantrell hosted, a fight broke out down below( i was on the 2 floor,) coleman started walking through the crowd, snatched the two guys and dragged them out. ****ing hilarious.

    "Top welterweight contender Josh Koscheck will be unable to exact revenge on the man who temporarily derailed his title aspirations, Paulo Thiago, at UFC 109: "Relentless" on Feb. 6, 2010, because he suffered an undisclosed injury in training"

    Mike swick will replace him

    The UFC today officially announced a recently reported contest between welterweights Mike Swick (14-3 MMA, 9-2 UFC) and Paulo Thiago (12-1 MMA, 2-1 UFC) for February's "UFC 109: Relentless" event.

    Swick stepped in as a replacement for Josh Koscheck when his teammate was forced off the card with an injury.

    While Koscheck and Thiago were originally scheduled in the evening's co-main event, the organization has promoted a middleweight fight between top contenders Nate Marquardt (29-8-2 MMA, 8-2 UFC) and Chael Sonnen (24-10-1 MMA, 3-3 UFC) to the co-feature slot.

    Ok, I call you crazy How would he win exactly?

    I'm even thinking of taking a shot at Couture finishing the fight before time... I doubt he wants to clinch with Coleman, as his boxing is faaar superior.

    If nothing else, Coleman will gas well before Couture. Ensuring a victory for 'The Natural'.

    I think he will gas for sure also. It wouldn't be a huge surprise if Couture finished this fight.

    Don't see Couture finishing fight. Shogun fight could have easily gone distance and Coleman was badly gassed. Not saying his cardio will be that much better, but have to give consideration to the fact that this is his third fight since comeback/injury, so should have a little more in the tank. Couture seems to have lost a lot of his explosiveness since his year long hiatus.

    He did go the full 3 with Bonnar too.
