UFC President Dana White finally promoted B.J. Penn vs. Nick Diaz the Main Event of UFC 137. George St-Pierre was scraped from defending the Welterweight Champion Belt from Carlos Condit because of some injury issues.
UFC 137, originally was scheduled for a (GSP) St-Pierre vs Nick Diaz. This was known to be one of the greatest match this year between the two fighters. Nick Diaz was an undefeated champion in the Strike Force league and has challenged to get the belt from St-Pierre, but it turned out to be a major change fro the upcoming fight scene.
I finally came into finalization, for the match on October 29, 2011; UFC 137 is scheduled to be starred by B.J. Penn vs Nick Diaz. B.J. Penn as we all know is a very experience and a very strong fighter, either of the two could face George St-Pierre in the next scheduled match, but they are already making ready that the "natural killer", Carlos Condit, can take on George St-Pierre.
UFC 137 will be held at Las Vegas Nevada on Oct. 29, a match between Penn vs.Diaz live on Pay-Per-View.

Jon Jones opted not to have a surgery but instead he chose to rest and rehabilitate, which for him in theory will not further damaged his hand injury.
