Sources close to CanadianProFighter confirm that Sam Stout is out of UFC 126 and will be replaced by "the Cowboy" Donald Cerrone to face Paul Taylor. Cerrone recently defeated Sam's Stablemate in Chris Horodecki at WEC 53, which resulted in the eventual release of Horodecki.
Bocek who has been quietly been making a run in the UFC lightweight division, recently submitted Grappling Standout, Dustin Hazelett at UFC 124 in Montreal. Post--fight Bocek made the claim that he has "the best BJJ in the Lightweight Division" and called out George Sotiropolous. Apparently he will be fighting "Smooth" Ben Henderson instead.
Anthony Pettis’ highlight reel kick off the cage at the last WEC event in history was Henderson's last fight. The two fighters put on a Fight of the Year performancebut in the end "Smooth" lost his WEC title, a shot at the UFC Lightweight title and his first fight in 11, likely all because of the "Showtime Kick"
