Dana White Talks Rampage, Houston Alexander and Gracie vs. Hughes

I am calling it an early night here as I have to go watch the Steelers lose rip defeat from the jaws of victory. Before I go here is the latest update from Memphis, Tennessee courtesy of Ariel Helwani

Dana White Rampage is back in the UFC and if Rashad Evans defeats Thiago Silva at UFC 108 the two rival TUF 10 coaches will meet at a later date. WKR definitely thinks that no matter what happens at 108 these two will fight next. Check that, as long as Rashad doesn't have a repeat of Lyoto Machida they will most likely fight next.

- Not a big surprise here but Houston Alexander has been cut by the UFC. Incidentally we have bought the rights to "Watch Houston Run" so stop riding out coattails!

- Renzo Gracie will fight Matt Hughes in the UFC's AARP division in early 2010.

Watch Houston Run

I think what Dana White said was very important . . .

“They destroyed everything that was great about Houston Alexander.”

So true. I know you have to come in with a strategy and game plan but Alexander has to realize something. He was 2 and 3 in the UFC. 3 consecutive losses in the UFC, allowed to fight on smaller shows BUT not cut.

They offer him a huge opportunity against a guy that’s not a great MMA fighter, far from it. Everybody knows Alexander for being a fierce, courageous striker. And what does he do? he makes Kimbo look like a competent grappler with BJJ skills. I like Alexander but good luck in the smaller shows and vaya con dios!
