---------------------------------
After a nine-month layoff in which he wrapped up his collegiate studies, welterweight prospect Tamdan McCrory (8-1 MMA, 1-1 UFC) will return to action for a bout with veteran Luke Cummo (6-5 MMA, 3-3 UFC) at UFC 87.

The UFC confirmed the long-rumored bout earlier today.

The fight will take place on the preliminary card of UFC 87, which takes place Aug. 9 at the Target Center in Minneapolis.

I like Cummo but I am surprised he hasn't been cut yet. He's less than mediocre. I must say, this fight has to be a must win for him. Then again, the UFC may be looking to build McCrory off of him.

a fight of useless factors in the UFC WW division. id imagine the loser is sent packing, as a lot of these "loser leaves town" kind of fights are happening lately so the UFC can determine who to cut or not. i cant stand either of these two, but i especially dislike Cummo, and hope that the Barn Cat puts him away with some good old fashioned Thai Knees or something along those lines lol

Cummo will win this.

He's still a damn good fighter with an iron chin and KO power. He's got plenty of heart and has never been KO'ed or submitted.

He suffered recent losses to both Luigi Fiorivanti and Joe Stevenson who are both excellent fighters and neither were able to put him away for good while also looking "bad" in the process.

Cummo just needs some better training partners.

If Cummo joined a decent camp, he would be a star IMO.

Pee drinking notwithstanding...

I hope Cummo takes this, I still enjoy his fights.
