Yea you read it right. Lee Murray is out of UFC 52. He has Visa problems again. Joe Doerksen has signed to fight Patrick Cote. This fight will most definately be a prelim now. All credit goes to MMA Weekly for breaking the story. Although reps will be appreciated for the tedious work of posting for everybody here to see.

i saw this earlier on mmaweekly.com. what the fuck is murray's deal? how hard is it to get a visa for a week? i've never heard of this much trouble for any other fighter. now the fight has just entered, "don't give a rat's ass" stage. they better make it a prelim.

fuck that. no reps for you. lee murray was gonna lose anyways. he should keep his ass in england cause hes never gonna have a career anywhere if his criminal background gives him this many visa problems. doerkson vs cote will probly goto prelims, and also watch it end up being the fight of the night like most prelims. i really hope not. oh yeah, i was kidding about the reps. here u go.

Pwned by police record - I know how he feels. It's bullshit tho. Paranoid Yanks - he could be a terrorist.

I was lookin forward to seein him fight.

Here is the big question. He has had this problem before, so why in the hell would the UFC sign him if he had not got that shit cleared up? If he ever gets it cleared up, Dana should make him fight Arlovski for punishment.

On a side note; When Murray fought Rivera one of my buddies was like "Murray vs. Rivera... the winner gets to eat something!" Could you immagine that skinny guy fighting the Pitbull? Man that would be brutal.

the winner gets to eat something haha. thats kinda what i thought when i saw murray fight the first time. i was thinking "muthafucka eat a fuckin sandwich or something, shit." him fighting arlovski would be nothing but entertainment for the bloodthirsty.

FUCK! This sucks man, how incompetent is his manager or whoever fixes this for him? You really should figure these things out more than a week in advance or is it the immigration or whatever that has messed this up? Damn, I want to see Murray fight again! Here's to hoping it will be a good fight nonetheless.

Or Tito.

I also can't believe that he has the same issue. I wonder if he told the UFC that everything was taken care of?

i just want to see Murray lose again because he isnt all that talented a fighter. he packs a punch but it seems thats about it. there is other aspects of his game he needs to work on. i dont care for him much just because of his steamrolling bandwagon of hype he had prior to the anderson silva fight. btw, it probly is our fucking immigration & naturalization services that is fucking it up for him. 9/11 all over again wooooooo watch it. letting lee fucking murray into the country to get a fight isnt gonna hurt anything.

sherdog was a quiet place about Lightning Lee after that fight. it was a good silence.

Haha true, it was really quiet.

Perhaps we get to see what Cote can do though.

Hell yeah, I was at 38. It would sell out within hours. Zuffa should fuck going to Japan, they will never be able to compete with Pride but the European market is just waiting to explode. On a side note, I'm no Murray nuthugger but he would have sparked Cote out cold.

Cote @ 185 should be a lot to handle and I still do not feel Joe Dork can handle him much liek Lee wouldnt have been able to.

Cote by JD.
