Thursday, November 5th, 2009

ProFighting-fans.com Editor-in-Chief Scott Dryden has news on the UFC Heavyweight Championship fight originally scheduled for UFC 106 between Brock Lesnar and Shane Carwin.

According to Shane Carwin’s official website, not only is the fight against Brock Lesnar off for UFC 106 but it will not happen at as scheduled for UFC 108 either.  The following is from Shane’s official website:

Guys my manager Jason Genet just told me that UFC 108 is not happening. Brock has Mono and what the UFC has told me is that I have earned the title shoot but I have to wait for the title holder.

I hope Brock gets well soon. I highly suggest he get into a Max Muscle store because they have the best advice and supplements to support that advice. It really is the only way to make it through the grueling weather and training we live through.

Here’s to spending some time with the family and eating as much as I can at Thanksgiving.

Thanks to my amazing sponsors Max Muscle, Beaver Buzz Energy, PerformanceMMA, Nightrider Jewelry, MTX Audio, and Warrior Wear.
