UFC Fight Night 17

Just one day away from UFC Fight Night 17. Tomorrow will be a night full of non-stop action as up and coming star Joe Lauzon takes on heavy handed Jeremy Stephens. Jeremy Stephens is a late replacement for fellow UFC veteran Hermes Franca. Franca was sidelined just two weeks ago with a hamstring injury. Stephens stepped up with only two weeks notice to take on a fight that could launch him into the top of the heap of the UFC's lightweight division. The winner has everything to gain, yet the loser will fall back down the ladder of the lightweight division.
The co-main event is between UFC reality star Mac Danzig vs. Josh Neer. Mac Danzig is a phenomenal wrestler with great jui-jitsu skills. His opponent Josh Neer is a hard hitting lightweight, nick named the "Dentist" because he has been know to knock out his opponent's teeth. This fight will be exciting and full of suspense, so don't blink!

The other two fight that will air on the nights main card will include San Jose's own Cain Velasquez who takes on Denis Stojnic. This fight will be quick! Two heavy handed fighters with something to prove. Should be fireworks. In the last televised card Anthony Johnson, who is a San Jose resident as well, takes on Luigi Fioravanti. Luigi is an ex-Marine with exceptional jui-jitsu. If Anthony can keep this fight on his feet he should be able to KO Luigi, but if Luigi takes Anthony to the ground, then it will be lights out for Anthony.

UFC Fight Night 17 starts at 7:00 p.m. live on Spike TV.
