The Writer's Guild's loss might be UFC's gain:
WrestlingObserver.com posted: CBS is talking with UFC about producing one or more prime time network specials. The writers strike is making the talks more serious, because the network would be in need of first-run unscripted prime time programming when the shows on the schedule run out of fresh episodes.

From WrestlingObserver.com:
--UFC has sued Randy Couture for breach of contract. The story is at www.lvrj.com/sports/13794082.html They are seeking in excess of $10,000 in both compensatory and punitive damages. They are also seeking a restraining order to prevent Couture from participating in any way for any competing organization. This is designed more regarding him being coach of Team Xtreme Couture in the IFL, although obviously would include if he were to want to fight elsewhere. The company is claiming Couture's false public comments about the organization have led to significant financial losses. They also claim a conspiracy, without naming names, perhaps trying to extent the suit to other promotions who they believe may have tried to persuade Couture to leave his contract. They also note Couture's contract has a one-year non-compete clause.

Ok everyone UFC 82 is coming up in two weeks. Pride Middleweight champion Dan Henserson vs. UFC Middleweight Anderson Silva. who gets both belts? My pick is Silva. Henderson is no joke but Silva is the most accurate striker in the sport today.

I'd pick Silva, but I'd love to see Hendo win just to shake things up. That way we can get a Silva-Henderson II.
If Silva does win (by stoppage), I really don't know who could beat him, at least not in the next year+ (2-3 fights).
After that maybe someone will emerge, but right now he just looks to be in a class all by himself. Again, if he stops Hendo that is. If it goes the distance they might be able to put together a rematch after they each fight someone else in between just so they could build it up more.

I like Dan Henderson. Watched his fight with Quintin(sp?) Jackson and was really impressed. His strikes are just vicious. Perfect form and alot of power because of his stocky frame.

I think that GSP is the best fighter in UFC. He defeated Serra with ease.

GSP and the Spider are both the best in all of UFC period. They're unstoppable now. Anyways can't wait to see BJ vs. Sherk. Man that's going to be a huge lightweight matchup. Kind of funny since they both went down to lightweight cause they both got smoked by GSP.

There's talk that Spider may move up to the light-heavyweight.

And face Rampage, yes I know. And I hope he does and puts Rampage in his place. Rampage is a damn good fighter, but I hate his attitude.

If Forrest doesn't beat Rampage I think Chuck eventually will. Chuck has said he's gonna keep fighting Rampage until he beats him.
