Josh Grispi is out of his fight with Matt Grice at UFC 136...Nam Phan will be replacing him...Has anyone fallen faster since the merger? Grispi was supposed to have a shot against Aldo at UFC 125, but Aldo pulled out and ever since he's been free falling

I really hope Grispi gets better soon, he has a lot of talent

Phan didn't look hurt at all after the fight though, and I can't wait to see Phan again!

Being that he's only 22 he has a great shot to get back on the right track and contend at 145

The fact that he's only 22 is kind of scary. Like a 145 pound Rory ;)

Grispi has a lot of talent, but he needs to switch something up. I haven't seen him get better in his performances, if he stays static, the division will pass him by. I am rooting for Phan in that fight for sure.

I don't know I've heard of Matt Grice and never anyone that Nam Phan has beat so we'll probably take Grice here!

I'm actually going to go with Phan in this one. If he doesn't win this convincingly a cut would be warranted, Grice is just not a UFC caliber fighter.
