It will be St-Pierre’s first bout since he regained his crown from Matt Serra at UFC 83 on April 19th. In Fitch, he will be facing a former Division I wrestler who has won eight consecutive UFC bouts without a loss, the longest streak in modern-day UFC history.

In other action on the UFC 87 card, heavyweight sensation Brock Lesnar returns home for a pivotal bout in his rise up the UFC ranks. Lesnar was originally scheduled to face UFC Hall of Famer Mark Coleman on August 9th, but a knee injury has forced ‘The Hammer’ to withdraw from the show. Lesnar’s opponent will be announced shortly.

Lightweight contenders Kenny Florian and Roger Huerta will also throw down in a highly anticipated bout that may determine a future challenger for the 155-pound crown.

St-Pierre vs. Fitch should be good.

Who will replace Coleman and fight Lesnar?

Randy Couture still officially holds the HW title and it can't really be given to anyone else until his contract expires....I think it expires in September. Big Nog is the Interim HW Champion.

As far as I know nothing has been scheduled for Anderson Silva as of yet.

Re: UFC 87 News

Herring is going to replace Coleman.

Interm belt is on hold because of the next TUF season which is Big Nog and Mir.

Silva will probably face Okami next however Silva really wants to face Roy Jones Jr in a boxing match but Dana won't let him.

Re: UFC 87 News

Herring vs Lesnar, should be entertaining. O'brian frustrated Heath by just holding him down.

This is a win that could silence a lot of Lesnar's critics if he pulls it off.

Re: UFC 87 News

Kongo also controlled him on the ground. Kongo. Like I said, this fight should let us know where Lesnar's at.
