The Ultimate Fighting Championship is already preparing their next event on Friday, February 28, 2003.  UFC

41: Onslaught will feature eight fights that will take place in Atlantic City, New Jersey. 

Featured fighters for this event include UFC Heavyweight Champion Ricco Rodriquez against a fighter yet to

be named. Also expected to fight will be BJ Penn against Caol Uno for the vacant Lightweight

Championship. And the much anticipated return of David "Tank" Abbott.

Abbott was quoted as saying about the heavyweight division:

"I think it's kind of weak. There are a lot of sport fighters that are not true fighters. They're not necessarily

fighters, they're just athletes that are in shape and use fighting techniques. Obviously, I think I can beat

anybody out there or I wouldn't bother trying." according to the UFC newsletter.

We can't wait to see.
