We all know that EliteXC has an upcoming event on October 4th featuring MMA stars Ken Shamrock, Kimbo Slice, Cyborg, Gina Carano among others.  We all know that’s it for free, thanks to CBS Saturday Night Fights.  And well all know that this is competition for market share for the UFC.  So, just like last time, the UFC has responded with some free PPV airings.  Now… airing a live PPV and airing a repeat of a Pay Per View are two different things.  Most of us have already seen UFC 86, which will air for free on Spike TV, the same night, Oct 4th, that EliteXC will be airing live.  We also have seen UFC 87 which will air free, October 11th, the same night that Affliction’s canceled PPV event was suppose to show.  So why is the UFC going to these measures to air less competitive content?  Which station will you be tuning into on October 4th?  If you DVR or Tivo both airings, which will you watch in real time? I know that I’ll be sitting back watching EliteXC live rocking my Team Kimbo T-shirt.

It looks like Rampage is back to himself again, acting funny, dancing with the ladies and just having an overlook good time. BJPenn.com brought their cameras to UFC 87 for an inside perspective on how BJ participated in the event. BJ sat beside the Octagon with a number of UFC fighters including Rampage and Matt Hughes. Everyone seemed very kind to chat and say “hello” to BJ. Take a peek, it’s well worth a look.

Last night’s UFC 87 was quite an exciting event.  From Jason MacDonald proving that he can roll bjj with some of the best to Georges St. Pierre knocking Jon Fitch down multiple times, spectators were on their feet for many of the fights.  The UFC 87 fight results for the night are as followings:

• Georges St. Pierre vs. Jon Fitch - St. Pierre wins via Unanimous Decision
  • Fitch showed incredible heart being Knocked down multiple times and battered.  St. Pierre showed incredible stamina and passed Fitches guard, the first time anyone has every done so in the Octagon.  Overall GSP controlled the fight and clearly took the victory.
• Brock Lesnar vs. Heath Herring – Brock Lesnar showed up looking to win and opened up the fight with a flying knee.  Brock controlled the entire fight on the ground and standing up.  He landed a solid blow bringing Heath to the mat.  The fight went the distance and Brock beat Heath Herring by Unanimous Decision.
• Rob Emerson vs. Manny Gamburyan -
  • A 12 second highlight fight ending with Manny KO’d on the mat, while Emerson takes the victory.
• Kenny Florian vs. Roger Huerta – K-Flo takes the win via unanimous.
• Jason MacDonald vs. Demian Maia
  Result: Demian Maia defeats Jason MacDonald by Submission at the third.  MacDonald does a hell of a job defending Maia BJJ and performing some of his own.

UFC 87 takes place tonight, in just a matter of minutes. And to get you ready for the two big fights of the night, Georges St. Pierre vs Jon Fitch and Brock Lesnar vs Heath Herrig, we’re bringing you the official weigh in video from ESPN. Expect two outstanding fights. In my opinion, Georges is going to overwhelm Jon Fitch with his ground game and go the distance. Brock Lesnar’s going to step it up and show us more of his talent, but in the end, Heath Herrig’s experience in MMA is going to win the fight for him. Enjoy this video for now.

Here’s a pretty in-depth fight preview video for the upcoming UFC 87 fight match up between former WWE star Brock Lesnar and Heath Herring.  The event will take place this weekend, August 9th at the Target Center in Minneapolis, Minnesota.  Brock will match up with Heath and hopefully show that his BJJ ground game has improved since his debut/loss against Frank Mir.  Although the fight against Mir ended in a loss for Lesnar, he showed great force and power the first time in the Octagon.

UFC is really putting a lot into the UFC 87 “Seek and Destroy” fight card.  The event takes place at Minnesota’s Target Center, and the popular events of the night are Brock Lesnar vs Heath Herring in a heavyweight bout and of course Georges St. Pierre and Jon Fitch.  In addition to these two outstanding matchups, Cheick Kongo will take on newcomer Dan Evenson (10-2), Frankie Edgar takes on Hermes Franca, Kenny Florian takes on Roger Huerta, and Ben Saunders and Jared Rollins of The Ultimate Fighter will match up.  Sounds like a good night so far.

The UFC just announced that Brock Lesnar will fight Heath Herring in place of Mark Coleman at UFC 87.  The event will take place on August 9th 2008 in Minneapolis, MN.  The main event for the night will be a title fight between Georges St. Pierre and Jon Fitch.  it’s going to be an awesome night!

UFC 87 just took an interesting turn…  After sustaining a recent knee injury, Mark Coleman will no longer fight Brock Lesnar at UFC 87.  A fighter stepping in for Coleman is still to be determined.

Another exciting tid bit of news… After his recent win over Matt Serra, Georges St. Pierre already has a title fight lined up with Jon Fitch!
