By Jason Powell Jul 14, 2009 - 10:32 AM Email This Article | Printer Friendly Page Send Us News & Results | Back to Main Listing The following is the lineup for the UFC 101 pay-per-view, which takes place on Aug. 8 in Philadelphia, Pa. at the Wachovia Center. -B.J. Penn vs. Kenny Florian for the UFC Lightweight Championship. -Anderson Silva vs. Forrest Griffin. -Amir Sadollah vs. Johnny Hendricks. -Kendall Grove vs. Richardo Almeida. -Josh Neer vs. Kurt Pellegrino. -Shane Nelson vs. Aaron Riley. -Tamdan McCrory vs. John Howard. -Thales Leites vs. Alessio Sakara -Matt Riddle vs. Dan Cramer. -George Sotiropoulos vs. Rob Emerson. -Jesse Lennox vs. Danillo Villefort. Powell's POV: Only the top five fights are scheduled for the pay-per-view broadcast. There's a big drop off from UFC 100 to UFC 101. That said, I'm looking forward to Penn vs. K-Flo, and Silva vs. Griffin. Those are a couple of strong pay-per-view matches, but the show just isn't as deep (and can't possibly be as newsworthy) as the UFC 100 event. HELP SUPPORT DOT NET!
