Nightmare Of Battle 
Sherdog put out a list like 2 weeks ago of some guys slated to fight on this show, and they were Jon Olav Einemo, Sergei Kharitonov, Marcio Corletta, Igor Pokrajac and Denis Kang.
Since this is on national television in primetime, I’d guess they’d try to make the best fights they could.
I think the card will end up like this:
Lightweight GP Finals: Tatsuya Kawajiri/Eddie Alvarez vs. Shinya Aoki/Caol Uno
Norifumi Yamamoto vs. Joe Benavidez
Mirko Filipovic vs. Alistair Overeem (Pretty sure Schilt is going to wreck JLB in late June)
Mark Hunt vs. Sergei Kharitonov
Yoshihiro Akiyama vs. Ikuhisa Minowa
Lightweight GP Semis: Tatsuya Kawajiri vs. Eddie Alvarez
Lightweight GP Semis: Shinya Aoki vs. Caol Uno
Lightweight GP Reserve Bout: Joachim Hansen vs. Mitsuhiro Ishida
Jon Olav Einemo vs. Marcio Corletta
Denis Kang vs. Igor Pokrajac
Yup, looks like a possible card.
Sergei Kharitonov must be out due to his participation in EliteXC. That’s a shame, would’ve loved to see him fight Mark Hunt.
It looks like the EliteXC fight won’t happen now.
