Default Jorge Rivera vs Kendall Grove

Apparently this fight is going to happen at UFC 80. I think Grove should take this, but you can never count out Jorge Rivera. He is one tough dude.

Grove is still an average fighter in my opinion. Then again, so is Jorge (also in my opinion). It could definitely go either way, but I'm glad we get to see Jorge fight again... I thought the UFC dropped him

Great stuff..i like them both.

Rivera is a banger and if Grove learnt his lesson from the Cote fight..i pick Grove.

This can be a good fight. I'm looking forward to it. I predict Grove will get the decision win, and I hope he does. But Rivera will probably make it a tough fight for him.

This fight should be a war, imo I think someone is getting KO'd.

It will be good to see Jorge back in the cage.I remember when he lost to Lee murrey in the UK.Shortly after Lee was attacked outside a club in London and nearly died-Jorge was on the UFC shortly after and he made a point of wishing Lee a speedy recovery and then thanked Lee for looking after him when he was in London.

In my opinion Jorge is a good fighter and a true gent.I wish him well in what will be a tough match up for him.I feel he will struggle against Grove but he certainly has a chance.

Yeah Im pretty sure Jorge trained with the London Shootfighters when he was in London. Lee Murray does some guest commentary on the Rivera/Anderson Silva fight at Cage Rage and during the fight he talks about the techniques they'd been working on for the fight.
