Nogs Staph infection is back so fight with Cain is off...

OK so youd think Cain vs Carwin is Logical but Carwin is getting Knee Surgery and wont be fit to go for a while.

It puts Frank Mir in a good situation, He could perhaps scrap the Kongo fight and fight Cain for an interim Title? Its hard to know what to do with the mess now!

One things for sure Strikeforces Hw Scene is looing good in comparison!

That is quite scary. Especially this part:

"[Lesnar] is in bad shape, and the reality is they don't really know all that's wrong with him," White said. "He owns a bunch of property in Canada. He went up to Canada just to get away from his house, to go up there and just kind of chill out up there.

"He [expletive] dropped. He went down, and he had to go to the hospital. They ran every test on the planet on him, and they ended up finding out something else was wrong with him."

I dislike Lesnar as much as anyone but I really hope he comes out of this ok.

This injury epidemic is insanity.

Crazy! Fighers are dropping like Flys! I really hope Brock and Nog are alright. Brock sounds in a bad way.

If he really is this sick then he needs to start suing some of the doctors that have been misdiagnosing him!

I still don't think he looked sick in any of his public appearances and i still think there's something odd going on.

Gutted for Cain, biggest fight of his career is off now.

Wonder who'll step up. 108 is gonna be a weak card. Strikeforce's cards are wiping the floor with the UFC ones.

This sounds very worrying, regardless of whether you like him, or like his style, when anybody is in his position you have to feel sorry for them.

My prediction is, with Lesnar and Nog out, and the high possibility of Lesnar relinquishing his title, a fight between Carwin and Velasquez would be the best way forward to crowning an interim champion.

Generally though, this has all been very unlucky for UFC, all these serious injuries and illnesses right when Strikeforce is beginning to challenge them.

Carwin has just had knee surgery and is out until February. Maybe Dos Santos vs Velasquez interim title bout for now, then Nog vs Carwin for number one contender spot?

This is very worrying news for both fighters. We dont know what exactly is wrong with Brock but for Nog having Staph aureus infection in your blood is very serious business.

If the infection is not treated adeaquatly and develops too sepsis and septic shock then it has a very poor prognosis. especially if its MRSA he has.

According to Dave Meltzer, Brock Lesnar's health status is way more serious than had been previously reported. Lesnar went to Canada last week for rest, as he is recovering from Mono, and while there collapsed and was rushed to the hospital. There is a major health issue that he is not letting out, but to kill rumors that may pop up, he does NOT have cancer HIV/AIDS. It is said that Lesnar will not fight for a very long time, if ever again. Dana White will head to Minnesota to meet with Lesnar, and will also try to get him into the Mayo Clinic, or some other top notch medical facility.

It sounds pretty bad, I really hope he recovers. I like Lesner unlike most people and it would be sad if he had to retire so early in his MMA career.

As for Nog, things don't look too good either. Thats two stalp infections inside a year I beleive, that shits screws you up. If it keeps happening he will have to retire, I really hope that doesn't happen. Both of them should take as long as they need to recover, there permanent health is whats important and hopefully we can see both back in the octagon.

As for the HW situation, the HW division was just begining to look promosing again. Ok so those two and Carwin are out for the time being. Duffe is out as well.

That means we have Gonzaga vs Dos Santos and Mir vs Kongo with Velasquez in the mix as well. If Carwin can get back sooner rather than later he should fight Cain and the winner of that fight so take on the winner of JDS/Gonzaga for the title. Nog will hopefully be back after that and he should take on the winner of Mir/Kongo for the next number one contender.

The UFC need to sign some HWs as well, Arvloski is an easy one to sign, he is a good fighter who can draw a crowd. The winner of TUF 10 (probably Nelson or Madsen) can take him on or AA could face Mir and possibly even the forgotten man Cro Cop, if he beats Rothwell. The winner of Buentello/ Struve will also be in the mix. Thats just what one fighter could bring, Dana should probably consider signing Sylvia right about now. Also Randy might have to move back up in weight.

I was just going to say, i would expect Randy to move back up if the situation is as bad as they are saying. Randy vs Cain would make sense.

According to Dana "he went to Canada and some bad stuff happened to him. He doesn't want to talk about it".

Would you care to be a bit more vague Mr. White??

I've come to expect this from Dana White, I particularly like the 'some bad stuff' part.

I can't imagine Randy against Cain, based on his less than impressive performance last night, he can't be put up against any top contender. Sorry guys, but he's past it big time

From what Dana said it sounds like Brock got interfered with by some bigger boys!

Hahaha, brilliant

Have heard that it has been diagnosed as Mono, yet,




He doesn't look too shabby there.

I have a feeling that there is more to this than meets the eye.

Maby he has messed up his HGH/Roids cycle? He coulda told Dana he isnt going to test clean and needs time to clear his system?
