The UFC may need quite a few stars to align for the show to happen in Montreal though =/ It sounds like pure speculation but its got me excited – the first event in Montreal was a blast!

That starts this fall? What do you guys think? I think that booking shows this close together is an indacator that they may have a network TV deal. That starts this fall? What do you guys think?

The UFC may want to do a show on December 5th but as it stands now, that is a Friday and TKO Championship Fighting currently has the venue booked out for the date.

Silva-Jackson would be great but it's hard to say with Jackson in legal troubles and GSP has said he doesn't want to fight again until '09 which would make sense for the UFC. Superbowl weekend GSP-Penn is probably going to happen. So all the big names are taken. Nothing adds up as far as main events go.

That sounds like too short a training camp to rest and then prepare for Liddell. BJ-GSP on a Friday at Montreal? I guess there goes my Vegas plans trip for Dec 27.

The Montreal Canadiens play at the Bell centre on the 4th and 6th. The UFC won't be coming back to montreal untill at least sometime in early 09.
