Another injury hits card...
Tyson Griffin (14-2 MMA, 7-2 UFC) has pulled out of his UFC 108 fight with Jim Miller (15-2 MMA, 4-1 UFC) due to an injury. No word yet on how long Griffin will be out or who will replace him on the UFC 108 card. Griffin's manager did say, however, that Griffin won't be out too long beyond January.
UFC 108 is set to be headlined by Rashad Evans vs. Thiago Silva. The show will take place January 2nd in Las Vegas.

Man, this show is jinxed. So much for the original concept in '09 about making the January show a "Wrestlemania-type" event.
We should finally see what the lowest possible buy-rate for UFC is with 108. I haven't missed a PPV since I started watching around the time of the first Ultimate Fighter, and this will be the first PPV I'm skipping.

They should cancel the main event, make a whole new card and put it on Spike. Let Rashad fight Rampage at 110 or 111.
Rashad v Silva is not going to have a lot of buys anyway.

"They should cancel the main event, make a whole new card and put it on Spike. Let Rashad fight Rampage at 110 or 111."
