UFC LightHeavyweight, Stephan Bonnar invited the folks down at RawVegas.tv to sit in on a Strength and Conditioning session at Philippi Sports Institute in Las Vegas. Bonnar talks about the creative spelling of his TUF 12 Finale opponent, Igor Pokrajac and how he’s preparing for their December 4th bout. He also explains his thoughts on fighting teammates and why Josh Koscheck and Jon Fitch may be so opposed but adds that he would definitely fight Forrest Griffin again, saying he grew up with lots of brothers and suggesting it’s no different than fighting with them and getting over it. Bonnar tells us he is signed on for Color Commentating the upcoming WEC: Faber Vs. Mizuyaki November 11th fight in Las Vegas but is unsure about his future commentating with the new UFC/WEC merger.

(Stephan Bonnar: He will stand there all day like that.)

The finale show for The Ultimate Fighter: Team GSP vs. Team Koscheck — slated for December 4th at the Palms in Las Vegas — just picked up its first two official matchups. According to a press release sent out by Spike this morning, the event will feature a middleweight contest between former title contender Demian Maia and TUF 3 winner Kendall Grove. Maia most recently outpointed Mario Miranda at UFC 118 in Boston, while Grove is coming off a split-decision win over Goran Reljic at UFC 116.

Also on the card, Stephan Bonnar will try to follow up his TKO victory/Fight of the Night against Krzysztof Soszynski (also at UFC 116) when he meets Igor Pokrajac, the man responsible for choking James Irvin out of the UFC. With his 1-2 Octagon record, Pokrajac isn’t exactly a step up in competition for Bonnar after the K-Sos fight. But it’s a fight that Bonnar can win, and if you don’t like seeing Bonnar win fights, we have one question for you: Why do you hate America so much?

Related: According to an MMAJunkie report, the TUF 12 Finale will also host a welterweight battle between Johny Hendricks (9-0, 4-0 UFC) and Rick Story (11-3, 4-1 UFC).

Let’s face it, UFC on Versus 2 is not the most star-studded fight card the UFC has ever rolled out, even on cable TV. You’ve got also-rans taking on almost-weres, and has-beens facing off against probably-won’t-ever-bes.

That means several men will most likely be fighting for their jobs on Sunday night, and the Cut List is here to tell you who they are and what their chances for continued employment look like. Let’s start from the televised portion of the card and work our way down:
