“UFC Fight for the Troops” card is taking shape

That card the UFC is putting on in December for the “troops” has really started to take shape over the past couple of days.

My thoughts exactly, Mike.

These appears to be some confusion but it appears that Mike Swick will headline the card so far, against a fighter I’m not very fond of for some reason in, Jonathan Goulet. The confusion lies in that up until recently no one could really decide whether these two were on this card or the TUF 8 finale.

Other bouts added to the card include:

• Steve Bruno vs. Luke Cummo
• Frankie Edgar vs. Matt Wiman
• Luigi Fioravanti vs. Brodie Farber
• Eddie Sanchez vs. Justin McCully
• Dale Hartt vs. Corey Hill
• Nate Loughran vs. Tim Credeur
• Ben Saunders vs. Brandon Wolff

The card is looking pretty thin at the moment with the only fight I’m very excited for being Edgar vs. Wiman. The UFC could be spreading themselves pretty thin in December, with three events set to go down.

Hopefully some “oomph” can be added to these cards in the coming weeks.

Also of note, according to Bloody Elbow’s Grand Dragon, Luke Thomas, Ft. Bragg – the location announced by the UFC for the December 10th show – has not been approved yet by the military.

Tis a bit strange.
