So much for Liddell definitely not fighting anymore

Thompson is fleet of foot, compared to most post players in the NBA.Thompson is still a work in progress. But when he can pull everything together he is a nightmare for the opposition. Author's Note In my last article, I had been verycritical of Donte Greene. The Kings' prospect put up 10 points in limited action against the Jazz, and 17against the Warriors. He led the team in points coming off his first start of the season. Greene has made the most of his opportunities in recent games Hopefully this is just a sampling of what is yet to come Especially for someone as talented as Donte Greene.. No major stories coming out of the Friday weigh-ins for UFC 106 today in Las Vegas. Everyone made weight (even Phil Baroni who was rumored to be 20 pounds too heavy earlier this week) and there were no noteworthy shoving incidents or throwdowns.

Brian Foster Dana White and Cain Velasquez were at the pre weigh-in Fight Club Q & A session today. Here are some highlights: - Brock Lesnar is going to Mayo Clinic soon. 'He's very, very sick." (Note that Lesnar's camp posted a video earlier today that makes it seem like we haven't seen the last of him I'd bet on that - Some asked when the UFC will sign Fedor (Are you serious Aren't we past this yet Holy shit!). White said it takes two to make a deal and that they made a respectable offer that was turned down. - He was asked about creating a Super Heavyweight Division, but said that really came up when Randy Couture was fighting heavyweight but that Randy belongs at 205. He mentioned he's been unprofessional and unforgivable the last three fights. Said that Chuck and he haven't got to talking about his future and that Liddell has got one more finale dance for Dancing With The Stars and that after that, they will talk.

(So much for Liddell definitely not fighting anymore...why did we ever think otherwise)- Was asked about adding a bantamweight and featherweight division. White said he always get asked by the media about it and that they've talked about it internally, but there are considerations with Versus and their contract with WEC. - On Rashad/Rampage: if Rashad makes it out of January's fight with Thiago Silva, we'll see Rashad vs Rampage after that. He said his hesitation is that there are not enough good girls to fill out the division, a problem he sees is the same with women's boxing in that there are three or four that are good and a lot that aren't. He joked that maybe they should put guys and girls in the TUF house together but that would have to be on HBO. - On the scoring for Couture/Vera, he said he was sitting with Vera's wife and when she asked about what he thought, he felt Couture was going to get the decision which Lorenzo Fertitta and Joe Silva disagreed with. Someone yelled that he could fight Tito Ortiz and he joked that they were friends now AOL Fanhouse posted a nine-minute excerpt here.

There was some concern today when it was heard that main announcer Mike Goldberg went to the hospital today and couldn't work the Fight Club Q/A session. What was the problem Could he work Saturday night What if he couldn't Well, Goldberg is fine and Twittered that "The story of my demise has been overly exaggerated...I am sick from UK trip...Doc Stile gave me an IV...I'm going to sleep and will be ready". I wonder if he couldn't go, who is the play-by-play backup Not sure why Strikeforce put on a Challengers event Friday night considering the mass amount of UFC/WEC this week, but we'll get back to them Monday including a look at the event calendar they just released. MMA Weekly reported that Nate Marquardt's next fight will be against Chael Sonnen at February's UFC 109 in Las Vegas.
