UFC Fight Night: Thomas vs. Florian
UFC Fight Night: Thomas vs. Florian referred to by the media as UFC Fight Night 11 was a mixed martial arts (MMA) event held by the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) on September 19, 2007 at The Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas, Nevada. The main event was originally expected to be a rematch between The Ultimate Fighter 1: Team Couture vs. Team Liddell contestants Chris Leben and Mike Swick. Leben, however, declined the fight offer (Leben later claimed that his managers turned down the fight without his knowledge). Swick was then scheduled to face Jonathan Goulet. Swick later pulled out of the bout due to a rib injury.[5]
The card was rescheduled to feature a lightweight main event bout between Din Thomas and Spencer Fisher. Fisher withdrew from the event due to a staph infection in his knee. Kenny Florian replaced Fisher in the main event.
