Lorenzo Fertitta was the latest member of the UFC to engage in an online "fan chat". Some highlights from the chat include, (via Urdirt.com)

- UFC 102 will take place in Portland on August 29th. Couture vs. Noguiera is still rumored to be the main event. 

- UFC 101 is in the works for Philadelphia on August 8th. The UFC is hoping that B.J. Penn vs. Kenny Florian will be the main event. 

- There is a special surprise in store for TUF 10. 

- UFC wants to return to Chicago. 

- Japan is "impossible" to do business with.

Two shows in August is exciting news. Personally I am not surprised that the UFC is still having issues with Japan. 

What could this surprise be for the The Ultimate Fighter? Maybe they will rework the show into four camps and split 16 fighters between those camps. But the camps are real, like American Top Team, Xtreme Couture, Team Quest etc. Then the fighters all meet back in Vegas and fight tournament style. 

Ok that is never going to happen, but its March Madness so I can't stop thinking about tournaments.
