Not a bad event afterall. Lots of action as well as the WWE style drama with people talking shit and calling others out to set up a story line for future fights.

UFC has releases a date for UFC 52 on April 16, 2005 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, NEVADA. Headling the fight will be Randy Couture vs. Chuck Liddell (part 2) for the light-heavyweight championship title. Below is the promo poster. Also there is a rumor that UFC 53 will be in Japan.

I'll have a full detailed report in our ezine once our reporter gets back and emails us her review and pictures.

This was a good event, and I look forward to seeing UFC 52 especially the return of Babalu, and Lee Murray. I hope this all works out

UFC will be in Japan in june for UFC53..... says Dana White... however we all know how that goes. It wont happen till it happens.. 51 was definatly a good event. I really believe slamcock was in the wrong calling out tito like that. Ken got his ass handed to him and he knows itll happen again. Ken has no place fighting Tito right off the bat. Who cares if tito accepted his challenge. Tito is now wanting 300k just to show up for the fight. Tito did well vs belfort and I think he has the resources to be champ again after randy retires =P. Ken sure has a lot of confidence you know after beating kimo(can). I just wanna see Arlovski vs Mir. I definatly will be betting money on arlovski.
