New Fights Added to UFC 73
UFC 73 - Stacked is looking to be just that, stacked with great matches. First off, we have two Titles on the line, the Middle Weight and Light Weight. With the way favorites have been picked off in recent MMA matches, don't be surprised if we see both champions fall. My pick for most like to lose the title is Sean Sherk as I feel Hermes Franca is a better all around fighter. His one weakness against Sherk (besides being taken down at will)could be his cardio. There is no quit in The Muscle Shark and rarely gasses. Besides the two title fights, there is also Tito vs. Rashad Evans, which in itself could be a main event. UFC today announced a couple more fights to the Stacked card. Press Release from the UFC: "Antonio Rodrigo ‘Minotauro’ Nogueira will take on Heath Herring. * Former world title challenger Kenny Florian returns to action to face UFC newcomer Alvin Robinson in a lightweight swing bout. * The Ultimate Fighter 1 finalist Stephan Bonnar is also back in a light heavyweight contest, as he takes on season three’s Mike Nickels. * Brazilian lightweights will fight it out for local bragging rights when Jorge Gurgel squares off against Diego Saraiva. * Welterweight veterans Chris Lytle and Drew Fickett meet at the 170-pound crossroads in a three rounder. * Unbeaten Frank Edgar hopes to carry the momentum from his big win over Tyson Griffin in February into his lightweight bout with fellow unbeaten Mark Bocek. Along with Anderson Silva vs Nathan Marquardt and Sean Sherk vs Hermes Franca, this could be the best fight card of the year, in any organization.
