According to Shane Carwin's last 2 twitter messages:
Looks like I'll be fighting October 24 in LA. Excited to know.
Oops I was not supposed to say anything. Got to get used to people watching me. No bout agreement yet. Looks like Cain and I if all goes.
Obviously, this is an extremely interesting matchup, and the winner could very well get a title shot. I'm sort of surprised they're matching them up this quickly, but at least no one can say the UFC is babying their up-and-coming heavyweights. My initial thoughts are that if Cain Velasquez (5-0) got dropped by Kongo, he's going to have massive trouble with Shane Carwin's (11-0) power.
