- After getting fired and then rehired by MMA’s major leagues, it was
announced light heavyweight Brandon Vera will make his return to action
against Eliot Marshall on October 29th at “UFC 137: St-Pierre vs. Diaz.”
“The Truth” was released from the promotion after losing a convincing unanimous decision to Thiago Silva at UFC 125. The defeat marked his third straight, and we all know what running the reverse trifecta typically means…
Fortunately for Vera, he was offered a reprieve when Silva
subsequently flunked his drug test. UFC president Dana White later
offered the Filipino-American his job back.
Speaking of previously being shown the door, Marshall finds himself
in a must-win predicament after he was allowed back into the Octagon.
The former “The Ultimate Fighter 8″ contestant started off his second
stint with the UFC by posting a TKO loss to Luiz Cane in March.
Marshall holds a 10-3 professional record, but is a mundane 2-2 under the UFC’s banner.
UFC 137 takes place inside the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las
Vegas, Nevada. Georges St-Pierre puts his 170-pound crown on the line
against former Strikeforce welterweight champion Nick Diaz in the card’s
featured attraction. 5th Round I can't wait to see Vera back in action and against some one who isn't juicing! I expect we will see some good Muay Thai exchanges, which is always fun to watch! | |

| I don't think Vera should even be working at the popcorn stand. He's not a fighter, he's a trainer. | |

| Srrs man, the guy has the heart of Bob Sapp, the aggression of Arlovski's tampon and the killer instinct of a 3 day old snot rocket you forgot to kick dirt over. | |

| Yes of course, because Sherk is the future LW champ. | |
