The long-rumored Aaron Simpson (11-3) vs. Jon Fitch (23-4-1) welterweight fight appears to have a date.

During a Q&A session, Simpson said he'll make his welterweight debut in July against Fitch.

Simpson, a two-time NCAA Division I All-American wrestler, fought once for the WEC and eight times for the UFC as a middleweight, and he posted a 7-1 record in the process. But following a close split-decision defeated to Ronny Markes at UFC on FUEL TV 1 in February, the 37-year-old announced his intentions of dropping a weight class.

Fitch, meanwhile, fights for the first time since his disappointing 14-second knockout loss to now-top contender Johny Hendricks in December. Prior to the defeat, the American Kickboxing Academy member and former Purdue University wrestling captain was on a 5-1-1 run that included wins over the likes of Paulo Thiago, Mike Pierce and Thiago Alves.

UFC on FUEL TV 4 takes place July 11 at HP Pavilion in San Jose, Calif.

UFC fighter Nick Diaz no-showed a scheduled World Jiu-Jitsu Expo superfight with Braulio Estima on Saturday in Long Beach, Calif.

Diaz's absence understandably left fans and Estima steamed.

Diaz, who reportedly was going to donate his purse to charity, initially offered no explanation for skipping the event, which was sold online as a $9.95 pay-per-view.

The event included five other jiu-jitsu bouts – Kyra Gracie outpointed Strikeforce's Alexis Davis, for example – but world champion Estima was left standing on the mat as he awaited Diaz, who never showed for the featured attraction. Event organizer Renzo Gracie later announced the superfight had been scratched because Diaz didn't arrive.

"For Nick, I gave up a lot of things to make this happen," Estima said afterward. "I came here to fight. You said that you were going to gave this all to charity, make all these speeches and stuff. I'm here now. You let everyone down. You let me down.

"I think this is very disrespectful. I didn't expect this from you."

Estima, who previously hinted at a possible move to MMA, said he would fight Diaz in the cage, assuming he shows up.

"I will fight him any time, and I'll make sure I'm there," he said.

While both camps argued about the other making weight, Estima assured reporters and fans he made 180 pounds on Saturday. He said no one saw Diaz make weight.

Diaz is currently suspended after failing a post-fight drug test in February following a UFC 143 loss to Carlos Condit. He cost himself a title shot back in October when he no-showed a pair of pre-event press conferences for a scheduled title shot with welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre.

"He has a problem," Estima said. "He has a social issue. This isn't his first time doing this.

"This isn't letting me down. This is letting the kids down. This is like out of order."

James Wilks, a British welterweight who won season nine of the UFC's Ultimate Fighter just three years ago, has elected to retire after seeing his career set back by a slew of injuries.

The 34-year-old made the announcement on Twitter over the weekend.

Wilks, who is from Leicestershire, England, represented his home country in a 2009 season with international flavor, dubbed TUF: United States vs. United Kingdom.

During the competition, he beat recent UFC 145 co-main event fighter Che Mills, Frank Lester twice and then tapped out DeMarques Johnson with a rear naked choke in the final to win the trophy.

Memorably during the season, Johnson offered Lester money to knock out Wilks' teeth, and as it turned out, Wilks knocked out four of Lester's teeth with a knee from the clinch.

He went 2-2 in four official trips in the octagon. Aside from his victory over Johnson -- the final is the only TUF bout to be sanctioned as an "official" fight -- he won a UFC 115 bout against Peter Sobotta, but lost matches against Matt Brown and Claude Patrick.

Wilks' last time in the cage was well over one year ago, when he fell to Patrick at UFC 120 in October 2010.

He was supposed to fight against Amir Sadollah last March but was forced out due to a serious knee injury.

Wilks retires with a 7-4 career record.

He has said he will spend his future concentrating on his gym, Lightning MMA in Laguna Hills, California.

Light heavyweight Seth Petruzelli has been forced out of his Bellator 68 fight against Carmelo Marrero with an illness.

Petruzelli made the announcement on Twitter and Bellator officials confirmed the cancellation of the fight just before the preliminary card was set to begin. Petruzelli had fluid in his lungs and the commission doctor would not clear him to fight.

Petruzelli tweeted:

"Guys, I have unbelievable news. The doc wouldn't clear me to fight. I have been feeling sick for past week but haven't told anyone. When the doc checked me he said he heard weezing and fluid in my lungs. Got a 2nd doc for another opinion and he said same thing. I am so sorry...I feel like I'm in a nightmare."

Petruzelli (14-6 MMA, 1-0 Bellator) was set to fight for the first time since knocking out Ricco Rodriguez at Bellator 48 in August 2011. Since being released from the UFC following consecutive losses to Ricardo Romero and Karlos Vemola in 2010 he is since 2-0 with a pair of stoppages.

The main card is set for this month's Titan Fighting Championship 22 event.

As previously announced, Anthony Johnson (10-4) makes his first post-UFC appearance in a headliner with fellow middleweight and fellow UFC vet David Branch (10-2).

Five other bouts, which include a handful of big-show veterans, also are slated for the May 25 broadcast.

Titan Fighting 22 takes place at Memorial Hall in Kansas City, Kan. The entire main card airs on HDNet following an untelevised preliminary card that features amateur bouts.

The other televised bouts include bantamweights L.C. Davis (15-5) vs. Bill Kamery (10-2), bantamweights Jose Vega (10-5) vs. Andrew Whitney (7-1), bantamweights Fabio Mello (10-7) vs. Nick Mamalis (13-8), welterweights Rudy Bears (13-10) vs. Nick Nolte (5-3), and lightweights Willie Mack (2-2) vs. Mirsad Bektic (3-0).

Ronda Rousey will defend her Strikeforce bantamweight title for the first time later this summer.

According to sources close to Strikeforce, Rousey will meet top contender Sarah Kaufman at a yet-to-be announced Strikeforce card in August. No date or location has been finalized yet.

Rousey (5-0) defeated Miesha Tate in March to capture the Strikeforce women's 135-pound belt. The win capped off an impressive year which saw her win her first five fights in a combined time of 7:15.

Kaufman (15-1) secured her spot as the No. 1 contender when she defeated Alexis Davis on the same card in March. The Canadian has won three in a row since losing the 135-pound belt to Marloes Coenen in Oct. 2010.

The card will air on Showtime.

Strikeforce returns on May 19 with an event headlined by Daniel Cormier vs. Josh Barnett and Gilbert Melendez vs. Josh Thomson.

A devastating knee injury has knocked out yet another UFC champion.

Bantamweight champion Dominick Cruz, currently a coach on "The Ultimate Fighter: Live"  who was set to co-headline UFC 148 and conclude his trilogy with rival Urijah Faber, tore his ACL  during training.  According to MMAWeekly.com, the injury occured on the set of the FX reality show. Phytegurus.com was the first to report the injury, and it was later officially confirmed via Twitter by UFC President Dana White.

"It's true Cruz blew his ACL. Stay tuned for more info," White tweeted.

It has yet to be determined whether Faber will face an interim opponent and new coach on "TUF: Live" or wait until Cruz is healed. Faber's last fight came in November, so waiting for Cruz could mean a layoff somewhere around 18 months.

UFC 148 takes place July 7 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. The main card airs on pay-per-view with the preliminary fights expected to air on Facebook and FX. Cruz vs. Faber III was originally slated to headline the event before the middleweight championship bout between Anderson Silva and Chael Sonnen was moved out of Brazil due to logistical issues.

East Rutherford, N.J. -- For a pair of world-class wrestlers, Johny Hendricks and Josh Koscheck can sure rearrange some faces.

Their three-round, welterweight war Saturday left both fighters with facial injuries prompting indefinite medical suspensions by the New Jersey State Athletic Control Board.

Hendricks, who outpointed Koscheck via split decision to earn a title shot at 170 pounds, is out indefinitely pending an ophthalmological exam on his right eye. Koscheck developed a mouse around his right eye that brought back visions of his title fight with Georges St. Pierre in which the current champ broke Koscheck's orbital bone. Koscheck insisted he wasn't hurt during the post-fight press conference, saying it was just swelling with no blurriness in his vision. Still, the commission suspended him indefinitely pending a CT on his facial bones.

The complete list of medical suspensions include:

• Johny Hendricks (indefinitely pending opthalmological exam)
• Josh Koscheck (indefinitely pending facial CT scan)
• Alan Belcher (indefinitely pending X-ray of right hand)
• Lavar Johnson (indefinitely pending X-ray of left hand)
• Tony Ferguson (indefinitely pending X-ray of left forearm)
• John Dodson (indefinitely pending X-ray of left hand)
• Pascal Krauss: (indefinitely pending X-ray of right foot)
• Louis Gaudinot: (indefinitely pending X-rays of both hands)
• Danny Castillo (indefinitely pending X-ray of right hand)
• Nick Denis (indefinitely pending head and facial CT)
• Rousimar Palhares (30 days for TKO loss)
• Pat Barry (30 days for TKO loss)
• John Lineker (30 days for submission loss)
• Dennis Bermudez (60 days for facial laceration healing)

East Rutherford, N.J. -- Lavar Johnson, Nate Diaz, Louis Gaudinot and John Lineker each took home $65K bonus checks for their standout performances during Saturday night's UFC on FOX 3 card here in the Garden State.

Johnson earned the 'Knockout of the Night' honor, Diaz won 'Submission of the Night' and the flyweight scuffle between Lineker and the victorious Gaudinot was the 'Fight of the Night'.

UFC President Dana White announced the bonuses during the post-fight press conference, which was attended by MMADieHards.com.

Johnson gave the UFC the start it was looking for when, in the first fight on the FOX-aired main card, he dismantled accomplished striker Pat Barry with a barrage of heavy punches along the cage late in the first round.

Diaz's guillotine choke submission against Miller - the first submission loss in the veteran's career - earned him an additional $65,000. Amazingly, it is the ninth performance bonus for Diaz overall and his third in a row after nailing down 'Submission of the Night' and 'Fight of the Night' bonuses for his wins over Takanori Gomi and Donald Cerrone, respectively.

Gaudinot and Lineker's flyweight battle sent a surge of energy through what had been an otherwise ornery crowd by continuously trading blows in the pocket with reckless abandon. The pair combined to throw 409 strikes in just under two rounds of action, according to statistics provided by FightMetric. Gaudinot locked in his signature guillotine from a standing guard position late in the second round and choked Lineker unconscious for his inaugural UFC victory. At the time of the stoppage, Gaudinot was ahead, 10-9, on two of the three scorecards.

Following his loss to Bellator lightweight champion Michael Chandler at Friday's Bellator 67 event, Akihiro Gono (32-18-7) announced his retirement from the sport.

The Japanese veteran made the announcement in a post-event press conference following the MTV2-televised event.

At Casino Rama in Ontario, Canada, Gono proved no match for recently crowned titleholder Chandler in their headlining non-title fight. Chandler connected with a straight right that floored Gono, and he then unloaded a lightning-quick flurry of punches to prompt the TKO stoppage just 56 seconds into the fight.

An emotional Gono received a standing ovation when he made the retirement announcement afterward.

Gono, 37, made his pro debut way back in 1994. He fought for some of his country's biggest organizations – PRIDE, Shooto, Pancrase and World Victory Road/Sengoku – while mixing in some North American appearances with the UFC and Bellator. Although he never held a major title, he earned a strong following thanks to his crafty fighting style and sometimes-over-the-top ring and cage entrances.

Gono, who's also kickboxed professionally, fought as light as lightweight and as heavy as middleweight while racking up notable wins over the likes of Hector Lombard, Gegard Mousasi and Hayato Sakurai during his 18-year career. He's one of only two men to defeat Lombard and one of just three to defeat Mousasi.

Gono had pieced together a three-fight win streak from 2009-2010, but he wraps his memorable career with a three-fight losing skid.

Edmonton's Ryan Jimmo (16-1) will make his Octagon debut close to home, as the Canadian light-heavyweight will take on Anthony Perosh (13-6) at UFC 149 in Calgary, a source told Sportsnet.

The 30-year-old Jimmo was originally scheduled to fight Karlos Vemola at UFC on FX 1 in Nashville on Jan. 20, but he had to pull out with an injury. The Maximum Fighting Championship 205-pound title-holder is on a 16-fight win streak since losing to CFL player Adam Braidwood in his professional MMA debut.

Perosh, 39, is on a three-fight win streak and coming off a TKO of Manitoba’s Nick Penner at the UFC show in his native Sydney, Australia in March.

UFC 149 takes place July 21 at Calgary's Scotiabank Saddledome.
