News Items We Missed Yesterday
Wow! A lot of news popped up in the later half of the day yesterday, so we're going to do our best to catch you up in one post.
It has been confirmed on BJPenn.com that BJ Penn and Diego Sanchez will be fighting at UFC 107, which will take place in Memphis on December 12th. Now here is a fight I can't wait to see, though if I'm being honest, a portion of this excitment is due to the knowledge that this means Diego Sanchez is going to be doing interviews. Bring on the crazy!!
Matt Hughes signed a multi-fight deal with the UFC, though we don't know how many fights, nor do we know who he'll be fighting first. Hughes is pretty close to the top on the list of fighters we loathe, ever since we watched him on TUF Seasons 2 & 5. We felt he came across as a real douchy asshole, and we could do without having to listen to his "Matt Hughes is the end all be all" spiel.
Fighter's Only Magazine is reporting that Rogerio Nogueria will be making his UFC debut at 105. Rogerio is the twin brother of Rodrigo. We are, of course, mandated to support these guys, since we are also twins. It's sort of the same principle as those of us who grew up on Long Island being required to love Billy Joel. Tickets for 105 will be up for sale to the public on September 14th, with Fight Club sales beginning on September 11th.
