    Apparently the UFC have "Absorbed 20 Affliction fighter contracts" and the names will be announced at the UFC's press conference on friday. Ben Rothwell and the guy his was meant to be fight on the Affliction card are rumoured to be fighting each other at UFC 104. It don't take a genius to work out it will mainly be fighters who had the more straightforward contracts. Belfort has been talked about but I guess it will mainly be fighters in the lower weight (Hordecki, D.Lauzon) and maybe even someone like Gilbert Yvel. Then there are the likes of Lil Nog (no way will the UFC match $120,000 to show, $30,000 to win) and Gomi but I dont know if they still have contracts will other orgs.
