On Fight Night 22 in Sept. Maia vs Belcher will headline .

Thats a v.good main event for a fight night, UFC really going all out with these.

Its fair enough they have this rematch I guess, it must be so heart breaking to do all that work for training camp then just get done by a ref.

two fights added to this Fight Night 22 card,

Jim Miller/Gleson Tibau

Cole Miller/Ross Pearson

Maia/Belcher should be interesting. I think Belcher gets too cocky and gets submitted. Then again Belcher is "one of the best fighters to ever fight".

Danzig/Wiman for the co-main event doesn't make much sense to me.

This card has not been finalized, but it could end up like this,

Alan Belcher vs. Demian Maia
Mac Danzig vs. Matt Wiman
Jim Miller vs. Gleison Tibau
Cole Miller vs. Ross Pearson
Efrain Escudero vs. John Gunderson
Nick Catone vs. Tomsz Drwal
Jared Hamman vs. Kyle Kingsbury

Those two Miller fights are awesome additions. A little disappointed that Tibau's the best they could give Jim, but Cole's in for a rough fight. Eee.

Tibau has been sneaky good lately. He's 4-1 in his last 5, including wins over Neer, Clementi, and Uno. I'd have liked to see Miller fight a bigger name as well, but Tibau will present a challenge.

True. And everyone will recognize Tibau, even if there's never been talk of him as a contender.

Miller/Pearson will be awesome.

Some excellent fights there. Pearson's looking awesome and Miller is one of my old favourites, but I'd like to see Pearson win. Don't care to see Danzig/Wiman. Danzig was getting dominated before the fight was wrongly stopped. It wasn't like it happened in the third round... It happened in the second minute.

Knowing Danzig he'll win a decision and somehow stay on the roster. I liked him on TUF but he's not upto standard imo.

Belcher out vs Maia.

Was looking forward to that fight.

Lots of time to get a replacement. I don't want Maia against a striker.

Would not be at all surprised to see them give Leben the call once again.

Similar style matchup, probably a step up in name value, especially since it's a Spike show (they love their TUF alum).

Damn, I was looking forward to Maia destroying Belcher.

The card is confirmed.

Main card

Nate Marquardt vs. Rousimar Palhares
Efrain Escudero vs. Charles Oliveira
Jim Miller vs. Gleison Tibau
Ross Pearson vs. Cole Miller

Preliminary card

Jared Hamman vs. Kyle Kingsbury
Tomasz Drwal vs. Dave Branch
Rich Attonito vs. Rafael Natal
Anthony Waldburger vs. David Mitchell
Brian Foster vs. Forrest Petz

Prelims are hot garbage. The Pearson and Tibau fights interest me.

The Miller fights do look pretty awsome, hopefully we get to see Escudero fight he always brings it.

Anyone else interested in this card? I really hope the fights are entertaining, I need an MMA fix.

Or maybe its just a UFC fix since I watched a bunch of MMA this past weekend?

The main event will be a close, but boring fight, I think. Pearson's boxing looks really good and he's pretty exciting. Tibau/Miller might be boring too.

It's a so-so card that I'm hoping comes out better than it looks on paper.

Marquardt over Palhares TKO
Escudero over Oliveria
J Miller over Tibau
C Miller over Pearson
Edwards over Gunderson

Hamman over Kingsbury
Branch over Drwal
Anttonito over Natal
Foster over Petz
Mitchell over Waldburger


Pretty bland card, Belcher/Maia no longer on this card as is Danzig/Wiman rematch. But I'll watch free fights anytime.
