The rematch between Chuck "The Iceman" Liddell and
Renato "Babalu" Sobral is now official. Tickets are announced to go on
sale this Sunday at 10 a.m. PST at all Ticketmaster outlets.
It's interesting to note that Zuffa does not appear to
have donned this show with a separate moniker, and has instead chosen
to promote the show as "UFC 62: Liddell vs. Sobral." It has been only
on the rare occasion that Zuffa has sidestepped its usual naming
system, and this has typically been done only for the most high-profile
fights, such as Liddell vs. Couture, etc.
Also rumored, but not
yet confirmed to be on the UFC 62 card are match-ups of Sean Sherk vs.
Kenny Florian for the vacant UFC Lightweight Title, which Jens Pulver
vacated, but never lost in a fight; David Loiseau vs. Mike Swick; and
David Terrell vs. either Anderson Silva OR Nathan Marquardt in a
middleweight contender's match.
