Every once in a while rumors start to circulate that the UFC President Dana White will have a huge announcement during shows on Spike TV. This weekends replay of UFC 84 that will coincide with EliteXC on CBS will be no different.
The UFC is expected to announce on Saturday that UFC 89, which is scheduled to take place from England, will air on Spike TV. The event takes places on Oct. 18th. A few inside sources close to the possibility of the show being on Spike TV have confirmed to MMANews.com that this will most likely be the announcement that will made on Saturday.
Although it has been rumored for a while now, things seem to be heating up on the BJ Penn Vs. Georges St. Pierre rematch fight.
Fiveouncesofpain.com is reporting that they have heard from several sources that the rematch between two of the top pound for pound fighters in the world could take place on the UFC’s year end show, Dec. 27th.
The only thing that appears to be standing in the way of this fight is the outcome of the GSP vs. Jon Fitch Welterweight title fight scheduled for August 9th. Should GSP come out on top in that fight and successfully defend the title, the announcement of GSP vs. BJ Penn 2 most likely won’t follow to far behind.
