Insignificant fight.

Serra also stated he would very happy to fight in the future at a catch weight of 160 or 165 pounds if the UFC were interested in promoting more catch weight bouts.

Right Matt, the UFC is going to invent a new weight class to circumvent your lack of willpower in cutting weight to where you belong. Just retire.

Truth, JJ. The only people interested in this are hardcore Serra and Trigg fans. WTF.

Ok Mac

couldn't agree more

I don’t know, it could be interesting to see and Matt’s too old these days to make the cut. If BJ is serious about fighting at WW again a CW with Serra (if he beats Trigg) would be a good fight.

BJ is top 5 in the world

why would a Serra fight be good?

by Robert(1) on Nov 20, 2009 4:23 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs

Gracie vs Hughes is off

by frosnt1 on Nov 20, 2009 7:56 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs

Gracie/Hughes isn’t happening at this one.

And they haven’t booked a main event yet. Maybe an interim HW title fight is in the works. Belfort is supposed to be fighting on this one as well.

It’s not the best card in the world, but the top 4 fights all interest me. I like Serra, so I like this fight as long as it is not a headliner. I also am cutting the UFC slack due to the number of injuries to the top guys.
