USA vs. Brazil:
– 265 lbs: Heath Herring (USA) vs. Pedro “The Rock” Rizzo (Brazil)
– 145 lbs: Urijah Faber (USA) vs. Fabio Mello (Brazil)
– 155 lbs: “Razor” Rob McCullough (USA) vs. Fabiano Iha (Brazil)
– 205 lbs: Lyoto Machida (USA) vs. Alex Stiebling (Brazil)
– 170 lbs: Carlos Condit(USA) vs. Jose “Pele” Landy-Johns (Brazil)
One of these things is not like the other!
with BoDogFight holding their PPV event in December in Vancouver, BC, could that be the place for UFC to make a Canadian advance on?
Is that a typo? What is Machida doing on Team USA?
It’s obvious the writer got the names mixed up and meant Steibling as USA and Ryoto as Brazil.
I really didn’t expect such a strong card from WFA with everyone else also deciding to run in December. Bodog looks semi-interesting as well. Will probably have a look since it’s on PPV(GET THE HINT AREADY STRIKEFORCE!!!).
OK
