Brandon Vera vs Jon “Bones” Jones March 21?


jon-jones-vs-brandon-vera

Brandon Vera posted on his twitter account earlier today that he was scheduled to fight Jon “Bones” Jones on March 21st. Apparently, Antonio Rogerio Nogueira (Little Nog) suffered an ankle injury and was forced to withdraw from UFC 109:

just found out I’m firing Jon Bones Jones on March 21st in Denver Colorado. hope u heard it here first!!!!

The previous message has since been removed from Vera’s twitter feed, but the fight is rumored to happen at Ultimate Fight Night 21.

Both fighters are coming off controversial losses. Vera lost by decision to Randy Couture at UFC 105 which most fans thought Vera won. Jones was disqualified from his fight against Matt Hamill due to illegal elbow strikes. Since then, Hamill responded that Jones should have won that fight.

UFC 85: Fabricio Werdum vs. Brandon Vera NOT Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira


fabricio_werdum.jpg

Earlier we reported that Fabricio Werdum would get a title shot against Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira. That is not the case anymore. It seems like Fabricio Werdum (10-3-1) will have to settle for Brendon Vera (8-1). Both are scheduled to fight at UFC 85 on Saturday, June 7 at the O2 Arena in London according to TheFightNetwork.

Brandon Vera recently has lost to Tim Sylvia via unanimous decision at UFC 77: “Hostile Territory”. It was his first loss in his career. Fabricio Werdum is coming off a surprising win over Gabriel Gonzaga.

This is an exciting match up and a good start to UFC 85.
