I´m really looking forward to see what Babalu has to offer, he has really impressed me in the few fights I have seen of him. He has an old lost against Liddell if I remember correctly, so they could go with a revenge mode with him. Both fighters are aggresive so a rematch between Babalu and Liddell would probebly be an exiting fight.

Vera-Eilers Added to UFC 57

 

By Thomas Gerbasi

 

Heavyweight prospect Brandon ‘The Truth’ Vera will look to keep his unbeaten record intact when he battles former title challenger Justin Eilers on February 4th’s UFC 57 show at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, Nevada.

 

UFC 57, which is headlined by the light heavyweight title showdown between Chuck Liddell and Randy Couture, will be available on pay-per-view, and tickets are on sale now.

 

San Diego’s Vera made his UFC debut in October, halting Fabiano Scherner with a devastating attack of knees in the second round of their Ultimate Fight Night bout.

 

The 27-year-old Eilers is looking to regain the form he showed in knocking out Mike Kyle at UFC 49 in August of 2004. In his last bout, on June 4th’s UFC 53 show, the Idaho native fell short in his challenge of heavyweight champion Andrei Arlovski, getting stopped in the opening round after suffering a knee injury.
