UFC Signs Croatian Goran Reljic for UFC 83

Continuing its international shopping spree, the UFC has signed Croatian light heavyweight Goran Reljic (7-0 MMA, O-O UFC) to a multi-fight deal that will likely put him on the fight card for UFC 83, which is tentatively scheduled for March 8 in London, England.

Reljic, a Brazilian jiu-jitsu ace, is undefeated in his career, which has included five victories via submission.

The 23-year-old, who is associated with the Gracie Berra UK team, splits time training in his native Croatia and with Roger Gracie in England. He recently won the 2007 European Gracie Championship in the 93-kg (205-lb.) weight class.

No details of where the event is taken place have been released but right now it's looking like the UFC is leaning towards Denver, Colorado.

The crowd turned on him after the Hamil fight. He is still popular there, but not as much as before the fight. Give those Limeys Chuck or Rampage and they will go nuts.

not just for bisping. ufc is popular there. more people was at ufc 75 than any of the shows in the us. not sure if that was a one off being the first in london and all with that great card with rampage etc but i think they should at least be able to draw as big crowds as in the us

i'd go again if they put together a strong card but ufc 83 doesnt look that good and i prefer london over manchester as theres so much more to do there

Rampage was already there? Doesn't make sense to put on a great card over there cuz we don't get it live. Give them the shit cards.
