| Tommy Speer to Face Anthony Johnson at UFN 13
Fightline's not always the most reliable news site, but I'm pretty sure this is legit. Sorry if its already been brought up. Quote:
It looks like Tommy Speer (9-2) will be back to the octagon April 2 for UFC Fight Night 13.
Speer recently made a name for himself by storming through the TUF 6 competition; making it all the way to the Finale where he was submitted by veteran Mac Danzig. He will reportedly face highly regarded prospect Anthony Johnson (4-1) according to MMAJunkie.com.
Fight Night 13 is slated to take place on April 2 in Denver, Colorado and will feature a number of big fights. Below is a look at the rumored card so far:
Kenny Florian vs. Joe Lauzon
Stephan Bonnar vs. Matt Hamill
Marcus Aurelio vs. Spencer Fisher
Anthony Johnson vs. Tommy Speer

Speer is a freakishly strong 170...I think he'll pound Johnson out.

Yeah tommy should def take the fight to the ground and gnp him to a tko victory. I am really looking forward to this card. And to think i actually paid for ufc 78,,, in my opinion this fight night card is better than 78 and its free. Awesome. Hopefully more future fight nights will be more like this one.

This card looks a lot better than some of the craptastic cards they charged us for in the past.
As for the fights, I hope they really are what they are reporting and aren't just hype rumors. I say good for Tommy, I hope that farm boy does his pappy proud.

If Johnson has half a plan he'll take Speer out. It's a mental game, and as exhibited by Speer's last fight, well, uh... yeah.
