The Ultimate Fighting Championship on Thursday, via its Ultimate Insider web series, announced several bouts for its April 30 Toronto debut.
Aside from the highly publicized UFC welterweight championship between Georges St-Pierre and Jake Shields, UFC 129: St-Pierre vs. Shields will also feature the debut of former WEC featherweight champion Jose Aldo.
An opponent has not yet been locked in, but UFC president Dana White last week declared, “If Mark Hominick wins (his fight at Saturday’s UFC Fight for the Troops 2), he gets a shot at the title with Aldo.”
The Ultimate Insider announcement firms up Aldo’s participation. Now it’s a matter of Hominick getting past George Roop on Saturday, or leaving it up to the UFC to move to “Plan B,” which White said included a trip “back to the drawing board.”
Other UFC 129 bouts confirmed on Thursday include a middleweight showdown between undefeated Phil Davis and “Ultimate Fighter” alum Matt Hamill, former WEC lightweight champion Ben Henderson vs. Canadian Mark Bocek, Jason MacDonald vs. Ryan Jensen, and Brian Foster vs. Sean Pierson.
Absent from the announcement was another high profile bout that has already been confirmed by both fight camps, UFC Hall of Famer Randy Couture against former light heavyweight champion Lyoto Machida.

If Hominick were to lose...What do you guys think Plan B would be?

Maybe Roop gets the shot?

I dont think he would deserve it...If that were the case then Poirier would have gotten a title shot for beating Grispi right?
I think they would just have to reschedule Aldo to May (which would be disappointing for a card like 129 which many feel needs a better co-main) and wait for Mendes/Omigawa

If Hominick loses I'd go with the Mendes/Omigawa winner, assuming they don't suffer a nasty injury in the process.

It's hard to believe how good the coming up UFC-cards are, 126, 128, 129, 130 already looking incredible.

if he makes it past roop. Roop is no joke. Both have a punchers / kickers chance at ending the fight at any minute.

It will most likely be Hominick as I dont see Roop getting through him at all. His head kick KO of the zombie was impressive but I think anyone throwing headkicks at the zombie has the chance to KO him :lol:
even still.....

Hahahah :lol: This is true but dont forget Aldo is a terminator and feels no emotion therefore he can not be affected by the home town advantage of Hominick.

Aldo is going to massacre anyone in his division doesn't matter who it is but I will pay to see it.
