I also heard that Dana White plans to have Forrest Griffin defend his title on the December card against who I have heard. My guess would be the winner of Liddell/Evans. BUT...Dont be surprised if Anderson Silva wins tomorrow and that he gets a shot at Griiffin. It would be very much like Dana White to set up a fight that is a WIN-WIN. Either Forrest stays the champ or Anderson makes history. I heard that this card may feature BJ Penn against the winner of KenFlo/Huerta!…or possibly on the November card.

I'm gonna start saving my money for this now. Glad they arent gonna try to shove Hughes down our throats as a main event. I'm also glad its gonna be at the All-state center. Downtown Chicago is a major bitch to get around. I’m so there! I’m gonna start saving my money for this now. Glad they arent gonna try to shove Hughes down our throats as a main event.

Bonnar will likely be on this card though, given it being his hometown and the long lay-off he's been on. I'd like to see him up against a young stud like Goran Relijc, who should be due for a fight after his impressive debut. Bonnar vs. Wandy might happen also, although I remember reading something about Wandy not wanting to fight until November/Decemberish. Other possibilities for this card: Diego vs. Alves (now that it's been moved off of UFC89); and any number of lightweight fighters who are due for a fight: Gray Maynard, Kurt Pellegrino, Din Thomas (depending on his injury status), Rich Clementi, and Matt Wiman. Although some of these guys may end up on UFC 88, which is still far from fully-booked, and Guillard made it seem in a recent interview that he wants to fight on 88 in Atlanta as well. And how about a long overdue Joe Stevenson vs. Tyson Griffin fight to see who gets the next crack at the title after Huerta/Florian? I don't think either of them suffered any significant injuries in their respective fights at 86. Nate Quarry's a possibility too...I can see good matchups for him against Thales Leites, Marquardt, or Lister. MMAJunkie is reporting that Hughes versus Serra will definitely not be on this card.

If Rory Markham wins tomorrow night he'll probably be in a prelim fight on this card. Bonnar making his return makes a lot of sense for it being on this card.
