he posted this in a bulletin on myspace:
Just spoke with Joe Silva UFC matchmaker. IT'S ON FOR UFC 59
Jeremy Horn is definitely out. I got the call from the UFC on Friday morning.
I just got off of the phone with Joe Silva, the UFC matchmaker. He said he was up until four in the morning, but he finally found someone to fight me at UFC 59. Awesome! That's great news to me. I have been training like a madman and I can't afford to sit out another show.
I was asked not to name any names yet. It is the weekend, and everyone is out of the UFC office. Contracts can't be signed until early next week. I will say this: It is not Ivan Salaverry.
Just wanted to let everyone know that everything is back on track.
Thanks everybody for the support.
See you in April.
