UFC 130: Rampage vs. Hamill is an upcoming mixed martial arts event to be held by the Ultimate Fighting Championship on May 28, 2011 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, United States.
This event was to be the third meeting between Frankie Edgar and Gray Maynard and their second meeting for the UFC Lightweight Championship. The two met earlier this year at UFC 125: Resolution with the fight ending in a split draw, and Edgar retaining his title. Their first encounter at UFC Fight Night: Florian vs. Lauzon saw Maynard win via unanimous decision.
It was later announced on May 9 that injuries to both forced the fight to be removed from the card. Edgar suffered broken ribs, while Maynard has suffered a knee injury. Anthony Pettis was originally contacted about replacing Edgar, but Maynard’s injury prevented the possible replacement.
On February 9, it was rumored that Thiago Silva had been forced from his bout with Quinton “Rampage” Jackson and could be replaced by Rashad Evans. Silva stated that he was not injured and was looking forward to his bout with Jackson. Instead, information surfaced that Silva may have failed a pre-fight drug screening at UFC 125, which could result in his suspension. It was then announced that the proposed Rashad Evans bout was never close to being signed, and that Rampage would face Matt Hamill.
Former Sengoku Middleweight Champion Jorge Santiago has confirmed he has signed a contract with the UFC and will return to face Brian Stann at this event.
On April 20th, Brad Pickett was forced to withdraw from his bout with Miguel Torres. Demetrious Johnson, who was set to fight Renan Barao on the undercard, has stepped in as Pickett’s replacement while Barao will face Cole Escovedo.
On April 27th, Norifumi Yamamoto was forced out of his bout with Chris Cariaso due to injury. Michael McDonald, who was scheduled to take on Nick Pace at UFC 133, has stepped in as Yamamoto’s replacement
Cody McKenzie was set to fight Bart Palaszewski in this event, but an injury forced him out of the card. UFC president Dana White later announced that Gleison Tibau would step up to replace McKenzie. Palaszewski was also injured and replaced by return UFC veteran Rafaello Oliveira.
UFC 130 will feature two preliminary fights live on Spike TV, and that the remainder of the preliminary bouts will stream on Facebook.

UFC 120: Bisping vs. Akiyama is an upcoming mixed martial arts event to be held by the Ultimate Fighting Championship on October 16, 2010 at the O2 Arena in London, England. The first ever UK UFC Fan Expo will coincide with this event. This event will air on the same day, via tape delay, on Spike TV in the U.S. The event will be the fourth the UFC has hosted at the O2 Arena in London, England and the first since UFC 95. It is also the ninth event held in England and the first since UFC 105.
Dan Hardy was originally scheduled to fight Dustin Hazelett at this event before Hazelett pulled out because of his wedding in September. Hazelett instead faced Rick Story at UFC 117. Carlos Condit replaced Hazelett as Dan Hardy’s opponent.
John Hathaway was also expected to fight Dong Hyun Kim. However, Kim was forced off the card with an injury and replaced by Mike Pyle.
Tom Blackledge was originally set to fight James Te-Huna. However, Te-Huna withdrew after an injury in training. Blackledge, an assistant coach for Team Rampage on The Ultimate Fighter: Heavyweights, was then scheduled to fight TUF 10 semi-finalist, James McSweeney.
However, on September 28, 2010, Tom Blackledge withdrew from the matchup with James McSweeney for unknown reasons and was replaced by Fabio Maldonado.
According to the UK president of the UFC, Marshall Zelaznik, UFC 120 is expected to break the European attendance and gate receipts records,[9] having sold out the original seating plan. The gate record prior was 16,693, set by UFC 105, with the record gate receipts coming in at $2.7m at UFC 75.
Steve Cantwell was scheduled to fight Stanislav Nedkov, however the fight was canceled 48 hours prior to the event, after Cantwell suffered a knee injury.

Travis Pastrana. Still out of control. Still amazing. A legend of FMX. Possibly his last time running freestyle in competition.
This is his winning run at X-Fighters Madrid 2007, held inside the Las Ventas bull fighting arena.
