Ufc 96 jackson vs jardine recap


Background

The card was headlined by a Light Heavyweight bout between Quinton Jackson and Keith Jardine. Following the main event, Rashad Evans, training partner of Jardine and then-Light Heavyweight Champion, entered the cage and publicly challenged Jackson. It resulted in a long-standing feud between the two that would not be settled until 2010.

A Welterweight bout between Dustin Hazelett and Ben Saunders was originally scheduled for this card, but was cancelled when Hazelett was injured.

Saunders was then scheduled to face replacement Ryan Madigan, but that bout was also cancelled when Saunders suffered a shattered toe in training. Madigan eventually faced Tamdan McCrory on this card.
