Yahoo Sports has recently confirmed three huge fights for UFC 92 through Dana White himself. UFC 92 is set to take place on December 27th from the MGM Grand Garden in Las Vegas and with this recent announcement promises to be on of the most stacked cards to date.
As promised Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira will defend his UFC interim heavyweight championship against Frank Mir in a bout where the winner will face the man left standing in the upcoming Randy Couture/Brock Lesnar matchup to decide once and for all who the true heavyweight champion of the UFC really is.
Forrest Griffin will defend his newly acquired light heavyweight championship against “Sugar” Rashad Evans. These two former TUF champions are both coming off of the biggest wins in their careers and both are looking to prove to the world that their last victory was far from a fluke.
Wanderlei Silva will face Quintin “Rampage” Jackson in a bout that many fans have been begging for. This will be the third matchup between the two with Wanderlei finishing Rampage in spectacular fashion in both previous bouts. The winner of this fight will without a doubt be in the title picture sooner rather than later.
