(Carlos Condit — huge John Cleese fan.)
After starching Dan Hardy at UFC 120, welterweight contender Carlos Condit was preparing to build on his momentum with another slugfest against Chris Lytle at UFC 127: Penn vs. Fitch (February 26th; Sydney, Australia). Unfortunately, the Natural Born Killer has reportedly withdrawn thanks to a knee injury. Damn, it’s been a bad month for that sort of thing.
Though a replacement has yet to be formally announced, fightnewsaustralia.com is claiming that Brian Ebersole — a 44-15 American journeyman who currently competes and trains in Australia — will face Chris Lytle on the card. Ebersole has won his last seven fights, and holds victories over Matt Horwich, Nick Thompson, and Carlos Newton.
The current UFC 127 lineup is after the jump…
MAIN CARD
Jon Fitch vs. B.J. Penn (WW)
Michael Bisping vs. Jorge Rivera (MW)
Dennis Siver vs. George Sotiropoulos (LW)

You put your left hook in, your left hook out, dude just KO'd Hardy and won the bout.
I think we need a post to calm us down.
Or some weed.
Make one of those happen, please.
if so, I will likely not bother...
also, what's up with the email requirement? are we back to the old days when we could just post under what ever name we want? If so, let's all post under "TUF Guy"
Somebody tell me I just misheard and that it actually said, "exposed powder-puff" or something.
