hughes is an easier fight for swick then kampmann, even though i know swick wanted hughes because he is a bigger draw; winner should get next title shot if gsp wins because who wants to see fitch vs gsp II already

UFC 103 is expected to take place on Sept. 19 at the American Airlines Center in Dallas, the promotion’s second trip to the Lone Star State. The event has yet to be announced by the UFC.


WTF? I thought Swick was facing Hughes?
WTF why would he fight Hughes? Hughes fought once in like a year and had a rough time with Serra it seems. Kampmann knocked off WEC champ Condit, beating Kampmann would bring Swick up much higher than KO'ing Hughes. Did you not see Alves-Hughes? It was hard to watch.

Alves and Swick are the only foreseeable opponent to give GSP trouble.

Wow...It seems ever fight is labled as GSP's toughest fight.

GSP over both via stoppage in the 4th.

Actually, we will probably see Hughes - Hardy now.

Man, I can wait to see this fight! Been wanting to see it for a long time now. Like both guys. Dont know who will win. I'll go for Kampmann.

Winner should get a title shot.

Man, I don't know what Kampmann has to do to impress people. He had a great run in a weight category where he was routinely outweighed by like 20lbs. He's usually finishing people within one round and is just coming off a win vs Condit, an excellent fighter in his own right. Will beating Swick do it? Of course not! Leading leading up to the title shot, there will be countless threads on here in which people will be hating on him and claiming they're not even intereted in the fight...

Gotta go Mike Swick on this one. Kampmann is a tough guy but he recieved an early present in the form of that decision against Condit. I'm far from a Condit fan as well.
