There are rumours that the UFC will hold a event in Dublin at the O2 on Jan 17th. According to reports, Rich Franklin will most likely fight Dan Henderson. Shogun and Chuck are other potential opponent for Franklin. Hughes vs Serra may also take place on this card.
I think I heard about this. Should do great business and the UFC has quite a few fighters with abit of Irish in them too.
I like the show any combo of Franklin,Hendo,Shogun,Liddell is fine by me but I thought Bisping was fighting Henderson ? Shogun vs Liddell makes perfect since right now.
UFC have now officially confirmed this event. 2 matches (both at 205) have been announced, Franklin vs Henderson and Shogun vs Mark Coleman. Looking forward to Franklin vs Hendo and it going to be good to see Shogun back in action.

There's no point. First of, it's a HW fight while Shogun is LHW. Second, his "loss" was because he FELL on his elbow and broke it. There is hundred and one fights better for him in 205.
It's not that attractive to me. IMO Henderson will manhandle Rich Franklin. Unless theres a strong under card I'll watch Affliction(especially if Fedor comes through).
