MMAWeekly is reporting that Leonard Garcia and Nam Phan will meet again at UFC Fight Night 24 on March 26th in Seattle. Many fans and analysts feel the judges made a bad decision which awarded the “Bad Boy” a win over Phan at The Ultimate Fighter 12 Finale in early December. With Dana White giving Nam Phan his win bonus, there were rumblings of a necessary rematch.
Another controversial fight, in which White awarded both fighters their win bonus was Frankie Edgar vs Gray Maynard for the Lightweight Championship at UFC 125. The fight marked the second time the two met in the Octagon and now a third meeting is expected to take place at UFC 130 in Las Vegas. The rubber-match is tentatively scheduled and will depend upon if Frankie Edgar, who was given six months for medical clearance, can be cleared before then. Both Edgar and Maynard were medically suspended until at least February 16th; whereby it was noted, Maynard would be cleared and Edgar could be medically cleared as early as that date.
