New Welterweight Fights At UFC 158

UFC 158

Yesterday, Rory MacDonald had to pull out of his fight with Carlos Condit, one that he asked for on national television, because of neck and back injuries. The UFC then pulled Johny Hendricks out of his fight with Jake Ellenberger to face Condit in a super duper number one contender fight. And Nate Marquardt will now face Ellenberger.

The top three fights now on that card are as follows:

Nate Diaz vs. Georges St. Pierre
Carlos Condit vs. Johny Hendricks
Nate Marquardt vs. Jake Ellenberger

The fight between Floyd Mayweather and Robert “The Ghost” Guerrero is no longer just a discussion. According to Ryan Maquinana, it is now a reality.

Not to be lost in the news of a Mayweather fight is the fact that he’s leaving HBO for Showtime/CBS. According to Dan Rafael on Twitter, it’s for 6 fights over 30 months.

According to Dave Melzer, the Undertaker was at the Nashville Predators hockey game on Sunday and Raw is taking place on Monday at the same building, so it suggests that Taker will be on Raw tonight. Is he there to jumpstart what we expect to be a match with CM Punk at WrestleMania 29?

There have been rumors that he might be too banged up to wrestle this year and could be taking a year off. Hopefully, this shows that he’ll be on the show this year. Because, what’s Mania without the dead man?
