with all the cutting now i think there are some fighters going into the sat night fights that are on the bubble
fighters like terry etim
i would have to say unless nakamura has a great fight, if he fights like he did against machida i see him getting cut as well
maybe also christian wellisch if he loses
ivan salaverry if he loses
i don't think war machine is on the bubble but who knows
i still think heavy weight division is missing a piece or couple of them to build back up but with lesnar, velasquez and carwin they are the future next year. i wouldn't be surprised if one isn't ufc champ by end of 2009
i still am hoping andre gets resigned, there still is hope since afflication hasn't said anything yet they still might be waiting to annouce it or the ufc might make a deal within the hour glass

I agree with terry etim getting cut if he loses and nakamura if hes loses and has a horrible performance also christian wellisch if he loses and
ivan salaverry is close to retiring so this might be his last fight anyways. Possibly jason tan if he loses bad

Definitely Salaverry. I think they need Etim for the UK fans so he's probably OK for a few more fights.

i think we're going to see more cuts after this event and basically after each event the ufc holds. this isnt really anything new, its just that now that there is so much more interest in the ufc and more fighters are gaining exposure every time one gets cut there are 10 different websites out there reporting it as well as each cut fighter mentioning it on their myspace blogs. youve got to win to stay on top and the ufc is easily the top in the mma game.

Salaverry.....and if people think tito is getting cut then i would think again he knows he has a whole lot of fans and any organaztion would love to have him.if he told the fertitta bros or dana he wanted to come bak they would want him bak .

I think the bridges are pretty well burnt in this situation... It's pretty much a done deal... Hope he goes to Affliction and fights Lil Nog and/or Babalu

Salaverry and Etim if they lose, they'll probably send at least Etim to the WEC even though Ivan would be a bad addition either as he is very experience.
Possibly even Wandy ONLY if he gets schooled and/or completely destroyed which won't happen which is a great relief.
Oh and Tito... (But if he wins I'd do my best to sign him for a Rashad rematch to keep hyping up Rashad and keep him fighting hot new up and comers)
