-Karo Parisyan (#5 Welterweight in the World)* vs. Josh Burkman (#10 Welterweight in the World)*
-Tito Ortiz (#9 Light Heavyweight in the World)* vs. Keith Jardine
-Chris Leben vs. Kalib Starnes
-Eric Schafer vs. Sean Salmon


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.

Chuck can't get healthy in enough time to train for a fight in May? How long does it take to recover from pneumonia?

If the Tito fight happens then I see it going Titos way, Tito will ground him early and keep him there, maybe stopage by gnp

Well pnemonia is wicked but I think what most are saying is that if Liddell does indeed fight it wont be agaisnt Rampage just yet until Jackson gets another fight under his belt.

I like this quote...

"Tito Ortiz: I'm in the top 3. I will fight any of them. I fought Liddell and made some mistakes but that won't happen again."

I doubt they'll ever be a third fight. And if there is, unless Tito becomes a K1 level striker, Chuck will stop him again.

Cool, well there it is... Tito vs Jardine in May. I'd love to see Jardine pull an upset but I dont see it happening.
