    White said as much when confirming that the UFC is pairing Johny Hendricks with Martin Kampmann. Hendricks vs. Kampmann would don the UFC 154 undercard in support of a Georges St-Pierre vs. Carlos Condit main event.

    St-Pierre’s rehabilitation, which he has been posting updates about on YouTube and Facebook, has been going well. He recently posted a video of his workout, commenting that he was feeling no pain at all in his knee.

    If both fights come together for Montreal, it would become a welterweight blockbuster similar to UFC 146’s heavyweight focus.

    Kampmann vs. Hendricks is very interesting. Hendricks has competent standup, with a lot of power, but obviously the advantage goes to Kampmann on the feet. It's actually a pretty similar matchup to the Ellenberger fight, but Hendricks may have stronger wrestling, and they have opposing power hands.

    Kampmann fights are ****ing hard to predict. You can never count that guy out.

    I like the idea of having the #1 condenders match on the card also, should an injury happen someone will be able to jump in. Hopefully they have a card full of ww's like the HW 146 card it also helps sort out the next condenders.
