The Ultimate Fighting Championships announced today that Mark Coleman (15-8) will not fight Brock Lesnar (1-1) at UFC 87, due to an knee injury he suffered in training. A replacement has not been named, but one is expected soon.
Also announced, UFC welterweight champion Georges St. Pierre (16-2) will take on former Purdue wrestling team captain, Jon Fitch (16-2) in the main event on August 9 from the Target Center in Minneapolis, MN.
GSP:
“He’s a very, very tough guy….I’m going to have to train hard and be very well prepared because he may be my toughest fight yet.”
its about time fitch get this sht but idk if he can beat GSP but it will be good but GSP all the way
Dang dang dang!
I was looking forward to seeing Lesnar-Coleman. Probably because I think it would be an interesting match up, a little bit of a freak show and I've watched/liked Coleman from the old days of UFC and Pride.
I wonder who there going to put in there with Lesnar now.
Hmm…
that might be good for lesnar, i don't think beating coleman at this stage would have said alot other than getting him a win, and if he would have lost it would have looked pretty bad for him.
