AL-TURK IN DOUBT FOR UFC 109 WITH VISA ISSUES

Rolles Gracie is still set to make his UFC debut on Feb. 6, but it may be against a new opponent. Mostapha Al-Turk has run into visa issues that could prevent the British fighter from making the trip to Las Vegas for the upcoming fight.

Sources close to the situation informed MMAWeekly.com about the visa problems on Friday, stating that if Al-Turk is not able to make the fight, Gracie would face an alternate opponent.

5 out of six correct but that Lawler punch came out of nowhere after he was getting chopped down. He could barely walk after the fight. I would love to Lashley actually fight somebody worth a flip just to see what he can do. Herschel impressed me with his takedown and sub defense but obviously needs more time at striking. Decent card but not spectacular. The refs are stopping fights way too early more and more and I hate that. Does Mazagatti run a reffing school nowaways?

Forgot to mention, this was an Epic Fail. The EA servers crashed. They didn't anticipate how many would log on to see this fight. Saw about 3/4 of the first round.
