It's official. UFC heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar will be defending his title in a rematch against Frank Mir at UFC 98 on May 23 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena is Las Vegas, Nevada.
The UFC officially announced the fight as the headliner on a card that will feature the long awaited Matt Serra vs. Matt Hughes fight and also Frankie Edgar vs. Sean Sherk.
All 3 fights are very interesting match ups. In the main event, you have Brock Lesnar seeking his revenge against Frank Mir, who submitted him with a knee bar in the first fight. Brock blamed bad reffing for the loss, but he will have to be careful not to get caught again by Mir, a submission artist who is coming off a big win over Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira.
Matt Serra vs. Matt Hughes is a grudge match to end all grudge matches. These two guys genuinely hate one another and neither wants to lose this fight. I'll be talking to Matt Serra about the fight as we get closer to the event.
And Frankie Edgar vs. Sean Sherk. Damn, this is going to be sick. Both guys have great wrestling skills, so it's sure to be a competitive match.
Another great card being put together by the UFC!
