Matt Wiman vs Mac Danzig rematch possible for UFC Fight Night 22 on Sept. 15
Matt Wiman and Mac Danzig are headed back to the future on Sept. 15.
The lightweights have reportedly been booked to rematch immediately at UFC Fight Night 22, which is scheduled to take place at the Frank Erwin Center in Austin, Texas, according to Heavy.com.
Wiman and Danzig first met on the undercard portion of UFC 115: "Liddell vs. Franklin" that aired on Spike TV on June 12 from the GM Place in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
It had all the ingredients to be an exciting contest; however, it ended in controversy as "Handsome" was awarded the submission (guillotine) victory in the first round even though Mac didn't, well, submit.
There was a miscommunication between the referee, Yves Lavigne, as well the fighters, which caused the early stoppage. Wiman thought Danzig was choked unconscious, Danzig apparently didn't respond effectively enough when questioned about his condition, and the rest is history.
Now we get to see history repeat itself .... on Spike TV ... again.
UFC Fight Night 22 is expected to feature a headlining bout between middleweights Alan "The Talent" Belcher and Demian Maia. Staunch lightweights Jim Miller and Gleison Tibau are also in talks to hook 'em up.
Stay tuned to MMAmania.com for more updates on this still-developing fight card.

That's what I am wondering...
Do they really need recovery time and a whole new training camp?
Bullets dodge Fedor.
yea no shit..leben fights 2 weeks after his last one and these guys wait months and months for an entire new camp?
the brockness monster grinds up teenagers and puts them in his protein shakes..and uses razor blades to chop toddlers up into lines to snort like meth...the reason no one can find bigfoot is because the brockness monster found him years ago and now has him in numerous ziplock bags in the back of his freezer...

Cut danzig and be done with it.
This is soooo lame and boring! Big deal, it was a matter of time. This match up sucks to begin with
travis leutter was gone pretty quick

yep...lutter got the axe after the franklin fight i think
That was some of the worst gassing I’ve seen in the ufc…he was so tired he could barely stand…totally unacceptable for that level of competetion.
