UFC 106: Ortiz vs. Griffin 2 was a mixed martial arts event held by the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) on November 21, 2009 at the Mandalay Bay Events Center.[3]

Background

As with UFC 103 and UFC 104, a portion of the preliminary card aired live and commercial-free during an hour-long block on Spike.[4] Tito Ortiz was originally scheduled to fight Mark Coleman; however, on October 5, 2009, the fight was cancelled as Coleman was suffering from a knee injury. UFC confirmed that Forrest Griffin would step in to face Ortiz.[5]

On October 26, UFC Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar pulled out of his fight against Shane Carwin due to an illness that kept him from training.[6] The UFC therefore had the Ortiz v. Griffin fight headline the UFC 106 card.[7]

Previously announced match-ups of John Howard vs. Dennis Hallman[8] and Kenny Florian vs. Clay Guida[9] were moved to The Ultimate Fighter: Heavyweights Finale[10] and UFC 107[11] respectively.

Tom Lawlor was originally scheduled to fight at UFC 106 but he was moved to UFC Fight Night: Maynard vs. Diaz.[12]

Jon Fitch was originally set to fight Ricardo Almeida but Almeida was forced off the card with a knee injury. Fitch was moved to the UFC 107 card to fight Mike Pierce.[13]

Dana White confirmed on November 19 that Karo Parisyan had pulled out of his fight against Dustin Hazelett for undisclosed reasons. Hazelett was paid his full purse including show and win.[14] As a result, the fight between Paulo Thiago and Jacob Volkmann was promoted to the main card.[15] Parisyan was also cut from the promotion following this incident.
