Jan 1, 2012 - If 2011 was the year of change and transition - new champions took their throne and the UFC signed a blockbuster, seven-year deal with the Fox Media Company - then 2012 promises to be a year of building on these new relationships. We can always expect big fights, but in this new UFC-Fox world, the stakes are higher, the rewards are bigger, the platforms even larger and the challenges as great as they've ever been in the sport.
Here are four fights to watch out for in 2012 that could change the face of the divisions in which they take place and help define the trajectory of mixed martial arts as well as the UFC for years to come.

Century Fighting Championship Brings MMA Action to New Hampshire
Mixed Martial Arts action returns to the ICENTER in Salem, New Hampshire, for the first time in over 2 years with several featured fights that will give fans the opportunity to see some well-known Stars of MMA; a couple possibly for the final time.
SALEM, N.H., Feb. 13, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Fans of MMA action in New Hampshire will be pleased to know that Century fighting championship is holding an event at the ICENTER in Salem, NH, on March 31st, 2012. The Main Event pits 15-time UFC veteran Marcus "The Irish Hand Grenade" Davis against 2-time Bellator fighter Matt Sung Lee. The Massachusetts resident Lee is coming off of a "Fight of the Night" win in November over veteran Tiawan Howard, following a bloody battle at Bellator with Ben Saunders. The Maine native Davis is coming off of his first loss in 4 fights, following his UFC release; dropping a close decision to UFC/TUF 13 cast member Chuck O'Neil.
In the Co-Main Event, UFC veteran Dan "The Upgrade" Lauzon takes on 1xStrikeforce fighter Don Carlo-Clauss. Carlo-Clauss is a member of New York's Team BombSquad with UFC's Christian Morecraft and Bellator's Rene Nazare and holds a win over M1 fighter Joshua Thorpe and 12-2 New England prospect Calvin Kattar. He's coming off of a dominate 2nd round TKO win over John Ortoloni in January. 20-fight veteran Lauzon has rattled off 4 wins in a row since his release from the UFC, including first round stoppages in his last 3 bout. With a record of 16-4 and only allowing one fight to make it to the judges, the 23 years old Lauzon could be returning to the big stage with a decisive victory.
One of the most anticipated bouts in the region is set when New Hampshire's (6-2) Cody Lightfoot takes on New York's (6-3) Mike Stewart. Lightfoot's coming off a Doctor's stoppage (due to cut) loss to top ranked Greg Rebello. Unable to get a rematch, Lightfoot has signed on to face Stewart who is coming off of a win over Rebello.

Whats in The Future for the UFC in 2012
MEN VS WOMEN Is This a Taboo Subject??
both are skilled in MMA and are in the same weight class put them in a cage who would be victorious? would it be the man because he may be stronger or the woman because she is faster.I thought this would be an interesting subject.we may never know because it is very taboo.as a society we are raise never to hit a woman an many me would hold back and many people and would be up an arms saying this is not right.Kind of like women in football.Of a female doing a job that is normally done by a man.
I am more interested on the skill and ability in which sex will prevail women fought for hundreds of years to be equals in society and there is always will be a dispute on women doing certain fields that are dominated by men its a catch 22 what to you think on this matter? I posted a link from yahoo on this topic for more info click the title above...

UFC on FUEL Ratings: Debut Event Draws Record-Setting 217,000 Viewers
This artical was written By Shaun Al-Shatti - Staff Writer for MMA Fighting website.
Feb 17, 2012 - The UFC's debut event on FUEL TV, UFC on FUEL, averaged 217,000 viewers over the length of the three-hour broadcast, setting a new live-event ratings record for the fledgling network.
Wednesday's numbers mark a 46-percent increase from FUEL TV's previous ratings record of 148,000 viewers, earned by January's UFC on FX 1 preliminary card. UFC on Fox 2's live preliminary card averaged 144,000 viewers.
The massive leap in ratings can likely be attributed to several factors, but most notable among them is fact that the event took place during a FUEL TV free-preview week for numerous cable subscribers.Ratings peaked as 315,000 viewers tuned in to witness 26-year-old Jake Ellenberger force his name into title contention with a wild unanimous decision victory over Diego Sanchez. Beyond the headlining bout, four vicious stoppages lined the network broadcast, including Jonathan Brookins knockout win over Vagner Rocha which initially aired on Facebook.
"We fully expected the UFC was going to deliver FUEL TV extraordinary ratings, and now we're seeing it," said network Executive Vice President and General Manager George Greenberg. "We are beyond ecstatic about the audience and the impact the UFC is having on our network's growth thus far. The sky's the limit on where this network can go from here."
Meanwhile, Spike TV continued their counter-programming crusade to successful results, drawing 694,000 viewers for a replay of The Ultimate Fighter 13 Finale and 661,000 for a Diego Sanchez-themed episode of UFC Unleashed.
Spike TV is currently available in roughly 99 million homes around the United States, while FUEL TV's total rests closer to 35 million. Though recent trends have seen that number continue to climb since the Fox-family network switched to a UFC-centric programming schedule.
"If you want to compare (FUEL TV) to a platform like Spike three times our size, I can't help that," Greenberg recently said. "But I can tell you, If you look at the FOX ratings and last FX ratings for the fight, and you look at what it's done to this place percentage-wise, we are absolutely killing it."

The Top Fighters in the UFC
This artical Was Written by T.O. Whenham - 10/13/2011
1. Georges St-Pierre (1) - I’ve been saying for a long time now that GSP will occupy the top spot in these rankings until he loses. He has won nine fights in a row, and I expect that streak to be extended at the end of October when he faces Carlos Condit at UFC 137. Condit is filling in for the talented but flaky Nick Diaz, and it’s hard to believe that he is of GSP’s caliber. The problem the UFC has faced with St-Pierre and Silva continues here — it is getting harder and harder to find a worthwhile opponent.
2. Anderson Silva (2) - Silva defended his title for the ninth time in August and he was very impressive in the second-round win over an outmatched Yushin Okami. His incredible last-minute comeback win against Chael Sonnen last year was the fight of the year in the eyes of several publications, and if Sonnen has his way a rematch will come in February. Sonnen called Silva out very boldly after his win at UFC 136, and the trash talk was flowing like only Sonnen can do. Silva is seemingly hesitant to respond to the bravado, but a rematch is too logical not to happen.
3. Jon Jones (3) - Last time around I felt like I may have been a bit premature lifting the new light heavyweight champion all the way into the No. 3 spot. This time around I am very confident he belongs. At UFC 135 Jones didn’t just defend his title against Rampage Jackson. He gave an MMA clinic. It was a wildly-impressive fight from a wildly-impressive fighter. Jones is unquestionably the real deal — the first guy in a long time to have the GSP or Silva immortality potential.
4. Jose Aldo (4) - There was questions about the featherweight champ after a win over Mark Hominick in April that was far from overpowering. Those concerns have been quieted now, though. Aldo was very impressive in beating Kenny Florian at UFC 136 to extend his winning streak to 13 matches. Aldo owns his weight class.
5. Frankie Edgar (5) - I was not impressed with Edgar after his draw with Gray Maynard on New Year’s Day. Needless to say, I’m much more impressed with him now. At UFC 136 Edgar got his revenge over Maynard and earned the knockout of the night for his efforts. It was hard to take Edgar seriously as a champion when he first took the title from B.J. Penn, but the more we see him the more I have to respect him. He’s the real deal.
