It looks like Tito is rumored to fight Jardine at UFC 71. I was hoping they would toss Babalu in the mix but after two lackluster performances in a row I doubt that will happen for a while. I am still skeptical of the Liddell/Rampage matchup, because everyone seems to be saying he wants at least two warmup bouts, but maybe Dana is getting impatient. Karo is always exciting, and is going against another top ten guy who he should beat in Burkman. Should be a decent event. 69 looks on the weak side but they are picking it up atleast a little bit with 70 and 71 IMO

I bet we won't see Liddell on that card. It sounds like he is really sick with Pneumonia right now and won't be able to have enough time to get in shape after he gets over his illness. At least that what the Fight Network said when talking to Randy about possibly filling in on May 26th.
