    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>UFC’s huge announcement won’t be made tomorrow

    Dave Meltzer at the Wrestling Observer website is confirming that the UFC’s merchandising deals announced Tuesday on CNBC are in fact not the huge announcement promised by UFC President Dana White last week during an ESPN.com interview.

    However, those anticipating that the announcement will be made tomorrow will be disappointed to hear that Meltzer has also confirmed that the announcement in question now is not expected to be made until next Tuesday.</div>
