Question about the next UFC card
 
I have to assume Dana knows the card already, why not release it??

I would think that these fighter need some time to prep for there fights, or am I totally off here??? Tell me if I am, I can take it

I imagine that when it is guaranteed, the card will be released. I’m not sure what all goes into it, but I imagine that since fights are usually announced in bunches, that some sort of negotiations or thinking has to go into it first.

I hear you though, I would love to kill the suspense and find out who is fighting on the next card as well. If nothing else, I would like to know who is fighting on the Ultimate Fight Night.

I seriously dont think he knows what the complete card is until every guy shows up for the weigh ins.

Yeah its bad to release a card too early because there is usually always someone dropping out from injury or other reasons. You don't want to hype up a card too early only to have it fall apart.

got this, but probably old now, for ultimate fight nite june 28

For his long-awaited UFC debut, Jorge Gorgel will face TKO star Mark Hominick. Hominick put himself on the map at UFC 58 when he submitted Yves Edwards. In his next bout, Hominick was upsetted by Hatsu Hioki at TKO 25. Gorgel is coming back from reconstructive knee surgery.

Chris Leben will meet PRIDE FC and Cage Rage veteran Anderson Silva. Silva is an experienced fighter making his first appearance in the UFC.

Leben won't be the only TUF 1 fighter facing an experienced veteran. Josh Koscheck is set to fight former UFC Middleweight champion Dave Menne. This marks Menne's first trip back to the UFC since his loss to Phil Baroni at UFC 39. Koscheck will make his fourth UFN appearance in the octagon

Ultimate Fight Night 5 is live from the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas on Wednesday, June 28. The show will be broadcasted on Spike TV at 8pm ET.
