Report: Dean Lister to return to the UFC in December

August 31, 2007 by Sam Caplan  

MMAWeekly.com is reporting that Dean Lister will be training at Xtreme Couture in Las Vegas and will be returning to the UFC on the fight promotion’s December 29 card (which is expected to be held in Las Vegas).

According to Lister’s manager, Jerry Villasenor, Lister would like to fight the winner of the middleweight title fight between Anderson Silva and Rich Franklin at UFC 77. I don’t see that happening until Lister gets 1-2 wins under his belt.

    Uh, why? Wasn’t Lister a big disappointment as far as MMA is concerned?
