I'm really not looking forward to Matt Hughes vs Chris Lytle. They might as well not have even booked the fight. Anyway, I hope they surprise me.

I know what you mean but it could've occurred anyway, if Lytle got the decision over Serra and Matt had beaten GSP.

Undercard Bouts Added to UFC 68

By Thomas Gerbasi

A mix of seasoned veterans, up and coming prospects, and Octagon newcomers will comprise the undercard of UFC 68: The Uprising, which will take place at Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio on Saturday, March 3rd.

In the main event, Tim Sylvia defends his UFC Heavyweight title against former two-time champion Randy Couture. Also featured will be the returns of former UFC middleweight champion Rich Franklin (who takes on Jason MacDonald) and former UFC Welterweight king Matt Hughes (who will battle Chris Lytle).

Rounding out the pay-per-view portion of the card will be an intriguing light heavyweight matchup between Jason Lambert and former world title challenger Renato ‘Babalu’ Sobral and a middleweight clash between 185-pound bangers Martin Kampmann and Drew McFedries.

In preliminary contests, welterweight contenders Jon Fitch and Luigi Fioravanti square off, TUF3 light heavyweight Matt Hamill takes on former national wrestling champion and UFC debutant Rex Holman, and lightweights Jason Dent and Jamie Varner look to move up the 155-pound ladder when they face off in bouts against Gleison Tibau and Jason Gilliam, respectively.

Pete Spratt told me he was fighting in april...I wonder what happened

Do you think he'll still fight in the UFC?

It seems he's lost too many in a row for UFC to bring him back until he gets back on winning track from other lesser known leagues.

It looks like Pete Spratt is fighting Marcus Davis for UFC 69 in April.

I'm looking forward to seeing Rich Franklin's come back.

Thanks for the reminder. I'm hoping I can get enough interest.... 15 people shouldn't be too much to ask, is it?

OK. The contest is up and running.

The participant requirement for UFC 67 was 20 but I reduced it to 15 for UFC 68. Good luck.
