Howdy. I'm Jim Genia. You might recognize me from such great literary works as "I, Armbar" and "Tito Ortiz's Head: Friend or Foe?" While Maggie Hendricks is covering some sort of athletic event called the "Olympics", I'll be filling in here at Cagewriter.� Yes, it's a temp job, but please think of me as that really cool substitute teacher you had in high school, the one who said nothing when you disrupted class and set fire to the lab, yet did not hesitate�to plant drugs in your locker and call the police.� Heh.� Anyway, here's some news to start your day:
- Cesar Gracie, coach to the ultra-talented UFC top welterweight contender Nick Diaz, tweeted that there will be an announcement on Graciefighter regarding Diaz's career today�at 4:00 p.m. (PST).� If you'll recall, Nick Diaz... yeesh.� The big question mark these past few months has been whether Diaz has truly�retired or if he'll get in the cage once more.� Therefore, we can expect Gracie's announcement to be one of the following: "Nick Diaz is not going to fight again", "Nick Diaz is going to fight again", and "Can someone tell Nick Diaz to call home?� No one's heard from him in a while and everyone's pretty worried about him."� Stay tuned!

- According to ESPN, UFC middleweight champ and untouchable superstar Anderson Silva wants to fight UFC welterweight champ Georges St. Pierre next.
Of much more interest to Silva are the blockbuster fights that can earn him big money as he nears the end of his career. St-Pierre v Silva undoubtedly would make the biggest Pay-Per-View in UFC history, but while Guimaraes says Silva wants the fight, he admits it has not been offered.
Of course Silva would like St. Pierre in a big-money superfight�next.� Who would you rather fight?� A welterweight champ whose knee could explode at any time, or�UFC light-heavyweight champ Jon Jones, who sports an eleven-foot reach�and has�murdered everyone put in front of him?� Silva is no dummy.
- Just yesterday Travis Browne was sad.� Ben Rothwell, who was to be his opponent at next week's UFC on FOX 4, fell prey to the injury bug, and Browne was without a dance partner.� He was subsequently booted from the card.� But it's�a new day, and with this new day comes the�news (courtesy of the good folks at MMAJunkie)�that Browne will now headline UFC on FX 5 in October, facing off against Antonio "Bigfoot" Silva.� Hooray!� If you'll recall, Browne is big and dangerous and beats people silly - and being big and dangerous and�beating people silly�is good for main events.

- There may be no offerings from the UFC, Strikeforce or Bellator this weekend, but that doesn't mean there isn't a way to get your MMA fix.� Invicta Fighting Championships, the all-female MMA promotion, will be having their second installment in Kansas City, KS, and the event will be broadcast for free on their website.� Here's a video promo courtesy of MMAFighting.� There are some extremely skilled and capable female MMA fighters out there, and a bunch of them are on Saturday night's card.
That's all for now.� Now excuse me while I go plant drugs in your locker.
