JDS vs. Stipe Miocic will co-main 173. I've always thought Miocic was an elite level heavyweight. Now he has a chance to prove it. I would be surprised if it lasts more than one round.

Should be a easy win for JDS
Also Matt Brown vs Erick Silva has been announced as the main event for a yet to numbered UFC fight night card.

Should be a easy win for JDS Unfortunately, however, it doesn't get him any closer to that heavyweight belt. JDS is basically the ultimate heavyweight division spoiler in that he'll likely beat everyone in the division, bar Cain. They're destined to dance forever it seems, and to likely diminishing returns.

I'm not so sure also that it's an easy win, either. Miocic has been deceptively good as of late.

Hendricks vs. Lawler being this Saturday snuck up on me. That has the potential to be an awesome fight. Robbie Lawler could be an undisputed UFC champion in 2014.

Well never a dull moment. Hendricks misses weight by 1.5 pounds. He has 2 hours to lose the weight. If he can't, it's still a 5 round fight, Hendricks cannot win the title if he wins the fight. Lawler though, will still be fighting for the title and will be champion if he wins. We'll see what happens in about an hour and a half.

For a guy who runs his mouth as much as Hendricks, you'd think he'd make weight for a fight where most consider he's being gifted the title.

That's about as unprofessional as it gets. Seeing as how fighters missing weight is one of his biggest pet peeves, Dana must be especially fuming right now.

Isn't Hendricks' walking weight around 210 pounds? That's just insane. Nearly ruined the main event.

Melvin Guillard has been released from the UFC. Also I think this shocker at Bellator 113 is a clear early candidate for worst late stoppage of the year.

Man, remember when Melvin was on the cusp of a title shot?
