The UFC 119 fight card will feature the rematch between former heavyweight champions Frank Mir and Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira on Sept. 25 at the Conseco Field House in Indianapolis, Ind.
Rodrigo Nogueira’s twin brother, Rogerio, will also be action in the co-main event, in a light heavyweight showdown against The Ultimate Fighter winner Ryan Bader.
The fight card is below.
The UFC has announced today that the promotion is moving forward with the expected rematch between former champs Frank Mir and “Minotauro” Nogueira, for September 25th in Indianapolis. Why not right?

The UFC has announced today that the promotion is moving forward with the expected rematch between former champs Frank Mir and “Minotauro” Nogueira, for September 25th in Indianapolis. Why not right? Both dudes got bombed out in their last bouts (Nog by Cain Velasquez / Mir by Shane Carwin); both guys continue to be threats in the heavyweight division, and of course, there’s a little bit of drama in the background to make things that much more interesting. You may recall that after Nogueira was throttled by Mir at UFC 92 in December, 2008, the legendary fighter announced afterwards that he had been suffering from a knee injury, as well as a staph infection, heading into their bout. You may also recall that Mir wasn’t really down with the whole ‘excuse’ thing…
In the press release announcing the rematch today, Dana White was quoted saying:
“Ever since Frank Mir beat Nogueira for the heavyweight title in 2008, Minotauro has asked me for this rematch because he wants to prove that the first fight was a fluke,” said UFC President Dana White. “On September 25th, he gets his wish, and I don’t think there’s any fighter more motivated than he is to even the score. As for Frank Mir, he wants to get back in the title picture, and if I know him, he was the first man to knock Nogueira out at UFC 92, and now he’ll want to be the first man to make him tap out.”
So, just a thought, but if you’re Nogueira, maybe this time it might be wise to drop out of the fight if you get seriously injured or sick again no?

Dana White confirmed with MMAFighting.com over the weekend that Brock Lesnar‘s expected title defense against Cain Velasquez will come at UFC 121, slated for October 23rd at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California. The meeting will come nearly four months after Lesnar’s comeback submission win over Shane Carwin at UFC 116, and eight months after Velasquez stormed through Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira at UFC 110.
Though betting odds for the fight opened with Lesnar as a minor favorite (-125 to Cain’s -105), Lesnar has already moved as high as -160, due to money flooding in on the champ. At this point, the only other matchup reported for UFC 121 is a lightweight scrap between Sam Stout and Paul Taylor. In other booking news…

A welterweight rematch between Chris Lytle and Matt Serra has been booked for UFC 119.
The news was first reported by MMA Junkie on Saturday and MMA Fighting has confirmed with Lytle that the bout will take place in Indianapolis on Sept. 25 – in front of Lytle’s home crowd.
The fight is a rematch from the Season 4 finale of “The Ultimate Fighter,” which Serra won by split decision. That win gave Serra a shot at Georges St-Pierre for the 170-pound title, which he won with a shocking first-round TKO. That win is considered by many to be the biggest upset in the history of the UFC, and possibly the sport. He would lose the title back to St-Pierre in his first defense a year later.
