The big end of the year card will take place ealy next year (Jan 2) and looks like the headlinner will be Silva vs belfort (UFC 108). The year end cards are usually pretty big but it's gonna be hard to see who else is gonna be on this card. Other champs fight too close to the date Machida(Oct 24) Lesnar(Nov 21) Pen(Dec12). GSP out till next year. There gonna need another name on the card Liddell/Hughes/Ortiz/Kimbo

Silva will know Belfort the **** out. Plain and simple.

We need an edit feature here.

i think it will be a good fight. Silva is king of the mountain now, but vitor is as dangerous and anybody when in the top form of his game

[The HOFF]

Henderson and Marquardt are both getting screwed over.

[THE_LOCKSMITH]

I thought Henderson was an automatic option after the record amount of people saw him KO Bisping at UFC 100. But Belforts wins over Lindland and Franklin give him a title shot.

This is a smart business decision for the UFC. I think ppl are more interested in a fresh match for Anderson rather than a rematch. With him only having a couple fights left on his contract, they arent going to rehash some rematches until they have to. Plus, if/when Henderson signs a new contract it sets up a great matchup between Marquardt/Hendo which is what I would like to see.

[shady610]

I agree that this is a fresh matchup and will be more exciting to fans. Hendo and nate should fight each other first.

I dont think there is any interest to see Silva fight either of 2 guys he had already handled rather easily

Agree! Does anyone know why Nate dropped out of ADCC... I wonder if he is injured right now.

[brooks85]

the matchup is fresh but a horrible matchup for vitor. Id much rather see hendo, the only guy to win a round against the man, the only way you can beat him too, ground control.

All i read about nate is he "might-not" be there, I can't find any reason as to why.

Oh man, I love the sound of both fights! Silva vs Belfort, and Hendo vs Marquardt... very wise move on behalf of the UFC
