From MMAWeekly:

Canadian fighter Jason Day has had to withdraw from his planned UFC 88 match-up on Sept. 6 with Jason Lambert. A source close to the fight informed MMAWeekly.com that Day suffered an elbow and biceps injury that will require him to have an MRI to determine the extent of the injury that will keep him out of the fight.

No replacement has been announced for the Jason Day vs Jason Lambert fight and with two weeks left it will be very short notice for somebody to step up.

UFC Results will bring you full results on September 6th.

Jason MacDonald vs. Demian Maia

Round 1
The exchange for about 20 seconds, then Demian Maia pulls guard. MacDonald tries to pass, but Maia has him in trouble...triangle, no, he doesn't have the arm...MacDonald rolls nad gets Maia's back. Demian gets out and MacDonald is back in top position. MacDonald almost nails a guillotine, but them Maia takes his back. Maia complains that MacDonald is doing something with his hand and the ref stops it. They continue from the same position. Maia almost gets MacDonald by rear naked choke, but MacDonald survives the round.

Round 2
A little Mui Thai to start off and Maia takes down MacDonald. Demian Maia is in full mount throwing elbows. Except for the last 10 seconds of the round, Maia spent the round on top in full mount landing punches and elbows. Round 2 definitely goes to Maia.

Round 3
MacDonald starts out on top, but Maia soon reverses and gets mount, then takes MacDonalds back and chokes him out (rear naked).

UFC 87 Winner : Demian Maia

Kenny Florian vs. Roger Huerta

Round 1
A good first round, highlight is Kenny getting full mount, then Huerta getting out. I'd pretty much call the round even.

Round 2
Not much action for the first 1 1/2 minutes of round 2, they almost seem to be feeling each other out. Florian goes for a takedown and Huerta counters with an attempted Kimura. Forian pretty much dominated the second half of round 2 rocking Huerta several times.

Round 3
Kenny Florian won the 3rd round with some outstanding stand up. I give Florian the fight.

UFC 87 Winner : Kenny Florian

Manny Gamburyan vs. Rob Emerson

Round 1
Less than 30 seconds for Rob Emerson to nail Manny twice...KO

UFC 87 Winner : Rob Emerson

Cheick Kongo vs. Dan Evensen
Kongo scores a big body kick and follows it up with a big right hand to knock down Evensen. Then to the ground and Kongo finishes with a bit of GNP.

UFC 87 Winner : Cheick Kongo

Brock Lesnar vs. Heath Herring

Round 1
Lesnar lands a huge shot early which might have crushed Herrings orbital. Then an attempt at a gullotine which didn't pan out, followed by 3 minutes of lay and pray. Lesnar definitely won the round, maybe even a 10-8

Round 2
Brock Lesnar controls the action and easily takes an un-eventful round 2.

Round 3
Dominant and boring decision by Brock Lesnar

Georges St Pierre vs. Jon Fitch
The site was going nuts during this fight, so I wasn't able to do a live update. GSP won a unanimous 5 round decision. He dominated Fitch in the standup and on the ground. St Pierre was on his back once for about a minute before reversing on Fitch.

In other fights:
Tamdan McCrory def. Luke Cummo by Unanimous Decision (30-27, 29-28, 30-27)
Jon Jones def. Andre Gusmao by Unanimous Decision (30-27, 29-28, 30-27)

UFC 87 is happening August 9th, UFC Results can't wait!

I just read Jon Fitch's week 4 on UFC.com and was a bit taken back by the following comment:

I’ve heard some talk over the last few weeks about BJ Penn moving up to 170 to fight GSP at the end of the year. Of course, they’ve forgotten that GSP has a fight with me first. But that just shows you where some people really are still in this sport and how they still have no idea what’s going on. There are a lot of so-called experts out there, but they know nothing about the sport. They’re spectators on the outside watching the sport through a telescope, and they think they’re on the inside and know everything, but they don’t. You can’t let that stuff bother you though. I think it’s funny and it’s just that little extra pleasure at the end of the day when you win and all those people are exposed.

I like Jon Fitch, but comments like this are not going to make him any friends. Who exactly does he have a problem with here, is it GSP? Is it BJ Penn? Is it the "so called experts"?

I guess we'll all see on August 9th whether Jon Fitch should be mentioned in the same sentence as GSP and BJ Penn. I'm personally taking GSP in this fight and I'll give Fitch credit where credit is due, he's been pretty impressive as of late, but a split decision victory over Diego Sanchez is not the same as dominant victories over Karo, Hughes, Kos and Serra.

This is Fitch's first bout against a real top 5 guy at welterweight. Is he the real deal?

August 9th, return to this site to see what happened at UFC 87.
