Could veteran referee “Big” John McCarthy make his return to the UFC in October?

When the UFC visits Staples Center in Los Angeles on Oct. 24 for “UFC
104: Machida vs. Shogun,” the organization will be making its first
trip to California since July 2007 and its first visit to Los Angeles
since May 2006.

Could the event also mark the return of veteran referee “Big” John
McCarthy to the UFC for the first time since officiating the December
2007 bout between Roger Huerta and Clay Guida?

McCarthy is currently licensed as an MMA referee in the state of
California, and today he told MMAjunkie.com he
would be available for the October event should the commission assign
him to the card.
