UFC Rookies bring veteran experience to the Octagon on May 24th

 
Thomas Gerbasi, UFC - It must be something in the spring air, because just like last year, the UFC is using the second season of the year to bring some new blood into the organization. On May 24th's UFC 84 card at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, some of MMA's most revered stars - BJ Penn, Sean Sherk, Wanderlei Silva, Keith Jardine, Lyoto Machida, and Tito Ortiz - will be joined by six newcomers who, despite their rookie status in the UFC, bring stellar reputations and a wealth of experience to the Octagon.
