Rumor: Cain Velasquez vs. Heath Herring

Cain Velasquez vs. Heath Herring has been rumored for UFC 99 as part of the main event.

Thanks to MMAmania, who has the scoop:

MMAmania.com has learned that the match up is expected to be a featured bout on the main card on fight night.

Velasquez most recently mugged Denis Stojnic at UFC Fight Night 17 for a round and a half en route to a second round technical knockout victory. It marked just the first time that a Velasquez opponent has made it out of the opening frame.
