I heard a rumor about a possible Werdum match. But i just don't see that happening. As far as i know he's still under contract with Pride. Also the UFC is not known for throwing new fighters right inot the mix. Wedum would likely get an easy first match. But i have my fingers crossed for this one. AA vs Werdum would be exciting.

On one hand it looks like York beat a bunch of hacks but at least he desposed of them fast, like in the first round.

This is worse than a bad rumour, it's a scam. Some jackass took a Jim York interview and changed it and added crap, just to put one over on MMA fans. Someone needs to get a life.
