| UFC 85 card final: Rashad Evans will NOT fight Quote: “After more twists and turns than a Hollywood thriller, June 7th’s UFC 85: Bedlam show has finally been set with 11 fights. Included is a move of the intriguing middleweight clash between Nate Marquardt and Thales Leites to the pay-per-view portion of the card, and a scrapping of the Rashad Evans vs James Irvin bout due to a broken foot suffered by Irvin. Evans, who was originally scheduled to take on Chuck Liddell on the card before ‘The Iceman’ tore a hamstring in his right leg, will not be fighting on June 7th.”
Stay tuned for more on this soap opera.

Looks like someone got emotionally hurt.

Thats smart that Rashad didn't fight, it would of been a waste for him to fight Luis Cane at the last minute.

Dana should let Rashad face Thiago Siva in the near future.

why would he give up easy money? Or maybe a highlight reel? I understand that an upset could happen but come on, you have already been training all this time.

That fight card has some bad Mojo. I wouldn't want to be a LHW on that card.

UFC 85 is having some bad luck theres going to be an upset or a death or something.
I'm not even impressed with this card anymore.

Can't say I blame him. What number would it be if he took the fight? 3? Having to train for three different fighters for one, single, fight? Can't blame him/the UFC one bit.
