They're all citing the same same.

Uncle Dana said it wasn't true. That is more of a confirmation than anything.

At long last, Georges St-Pierre appears headed back to the UFC.

St-Pierre, the former UFC welterweight champion, is on the verge of signing a new multi-fight contract with the promotion, multiple sources confirmed with MMA Fighting.

After months of on-and-off negotiations, both sides have agreed to terms on a new deal, MMA Fighting has learned.

While St-Pierre's return fight has yet to be finalized, the current plan is for him to compete later this year. A return in the third quarter of 2017 is currently being targeted, sources say.

UFC officials declined to comment on the impending deal, though, UFC president Dana White, and others, have dropped some clues as of late.

Doesnt "comeback" imply they were once somebodies? Most of these guys barely got through their season of TUF.

Yeah, I'm bummed too.
Had hoped for some folks that are a bit higher caliber and want more spotlight.
But fighting for free is a tough sell.

They should just do a year of following amateur fighters and people dipping their toe in.Their story and why they would want to fight.

They should have got all the guys from TUF 4 on, a comeback comeback season if you will.

I can see CM getting a win over Shonie Carter.

When do they announce Bisping and GSP as coaches? Or is GSP part of the cast?

The winner will be lucky to get one fight in the UFC before father time forces them to retire.

Well thats just not true. Hector urbina and ramsey are young enough to dropped after this resurgance and still get called a "comeback" for TUF 30
 
Fedor fights Mitrione tomorrow. How times have changed. Cant believe how the russians and Zuffa couldnt come to terms for Lesnar/Fedor during a time when it actually mattered.

I still think a 31-1 Fedor vs. HW champ Brock would have been the biggest fight in MMA history. Dana said in one of the interviews at that time that Fedor would have fought Brock straight away for the belt (he was scared of him losing hype when he lost).

We missed out, friends!

there's an "old" UFC fighter in almost every fight on bellator's main card

koscheck, kongo, thompson, and mitrione

nice strat

Freakshow fights are the only way they can compete, honestly. What they need to do more often is if they make a main event of [old MMA/UFC fighter] vs [old MMA/UFC fighter] is to make the undercard full of their potential young stars. They do it a bit, but not enough.
 
GSP about to do an Anderson and tarnish the shit out of his legacy. At least let him fight left hook Larry for the belt before feeding him to the young guys

He'll probably fight Anderson Silva first. He's back for money fights. that's it. Can't see him caring about anything else at this stage of his career.
