UFC 62, some rumored fights on the card - Fight Forum - MMA - UFC - Boxing - K1

I have found 3 matches that are rumored to happen in UFC 62. All three fights are amazing so far, and if they are true, I cannot wait at all.

Chuck Liddell vs Babalu
BJ Penn vs Karo Parysian
David Loiseau vs Mike Swick

Any other fights, please announce

This just sounds like the rumour mill to me. I thought Babalu and Chuck was a lock. Karo is already fighting Sanchez, so I doubt they'll have his next match planned.

If that is true, it will be a very exciting card. I would go just because of those three fights. I would love to see the Loiseau and Swick fight. That has the makings of Fight of the year.

I'd rather see Swick fight Leben and have the winner face Franklin. I like Loiseau, but this could cause problems if he wins. Then he will be the #1 contender again, unless Nate Marquardt gets involved.

That being said, Swick vs. Loiseau would be a lot of fun to watch. I'm excited for it, but like the guy above said, it's still a rumor.

As for BJ fighting Karo, bring it on!

Swick vs The Crow would be a huge test for Swick especially because David will be coming into his next with something to prove. If swick won that he'd get his title shot for sure.

I wish they'd sort out the contender status in MW. There's a bunch of guys who could be contenders, but it's not at all clear where they rank in relation to each other. Leben beat Swick, so Swick should have to prove he deserves to move ahead of Leben. And where does Quarry fit in? It's almost like Rich KO'ed his career in that title fight.

None of those guys are ready to challenge for the title though. The UFC MW division has even less depth than HW.

That's interesting. Sometimes they've preplanned fights or discussed potential matchups but seems too soon to give the go-ahead for Karo v. BJ.

Good fights though, rumor or not.

Karo is sure going to have a busy summer... fighting daydream and BJ in the same month and BJ second -- poor fella.
As for Swick and Elbowz... awesomeness. I'd love to see that one, and Chuck/Babalu should be pretty fun.

wow swick vs the crow...i havent even thought of that combo yet. what an interesting fight that would be..

I'd definitely like to see Swick take on Loiseau. That'd be a good one and I want to see how Swick will do against top competition. But I'm with Thrash I really want to see Swick and Leben go at it again before anything.
