Yeah this blows. Chicago fans are getting screwed big time. They might as well move the date back so they could have bigger fights. At this point it wouldn't surprise me if they changed it from UFC 90 to a UFC Fight Night.

I believe you are right.....and if a fight between Rampage/Silva was sanctioned in the future..and Rampage lost again....you gotta ask yourself what would that do to Rampage's mental health recovery...not much...if losing to Griffin was that much of a mental blow...I fear to think what another loss to Wandy would do to his fragile psyche....I like and respect Rampage but I really do think whatever the legal ramifications are because of his recent mental breakdown.....he should just retire from fighting period.....for his own and the public's safety and wellbeing.....

My favourite bit of that interview:

"For me, no problem," Silva said. "I'll fight with everybody."

That wasn't broken english. He didn't mean 'anybody.' Those were his sentiments exactly!

it has more to do with their marketing approach...the december event is always their biggest, so i think they'd like to stack it with as much talent as possible. if wand were to fight before then and get injured it would suck. and i think theres enough interesting matchups already lined up over the next couple of months, its almost better to play the wait and see game.; you got fights like liddell/rashad vera/jardine machida/t.silva, a fight between wand and the winner of any of those fights would awesome. so yea it does suck that we're not gonna see wand fight until december but imo its worth the wait.

Jackson's fight career is over kids. His next job will be tossing the salad in a federal facillity.

Wandy vs ??
It doesn't really matter, 'cause Wandy the wrecking machine is back!!!111
This very well could be the case with quinton.

I hate how the UFC has been having fighters fight less and less. Too much time in between for Wand to fight again.
