Anderson vs Rashad is the only fight that makes sense and the only fight that would sell. |

As long as Anderson is in the cage I will tune in. Against Rockhold? An exciting fight with two great strikers. Sign me up. |

Willin -It's the idea of a Champion vs Champion fight, not so much who's had the bigger wins. A clash of two champions, kinda sells itself in a way. Plus Weidman is hurt, out until I think summer, so they can definitely get this fight rolling sooner with Luke. It makes little to no sense to hold out until Weidman heals up.LilBrockonmychest -Orcus Knows MMA Better Than Goku -Jason - I like the champ vs champ fight.

arnanderson -LilBrockonmychest -Orcus Knows MMA Better Than Goku -Jason - I like the champ vs champ fight. LOL at a split decision over Josh Thompson and decision over Masvidal in the past 1.5 years making him top 3. Melendez has beat 1 top 10 guy in the last 5 years and that was Aoki. Take a look at the top 20 fighters. How many has Melendez beat? Also, it has nothing to do with it. Dana made it clear that the reason Rousey is the champ in the UFC is because she was the champ in SF. Diaz got an immediate title shot. Melendez is getting an immediate shot. There was talk of Marquardt getting an immediate shot before he lost a couple weeks ago (his interviews of him gladly fighting GSP). I don't agree with it but if the UFC wants to make this a pattern, it's not fair to Rockhold to stop it now. |

He should not get an immediate title shot. Silva and his camp would love to fight him because it is a good matchup for him. It is the closest thing to a gimme that they can get. Same old story, Silva's camp are cool with favorable matchups that lack merit, but complain about the matches that make the most sense because they may actually stand a chance. I agree with Rockhold that a fight with Belfort would make sense. |

I just wanna see Weidman fight again no matter who it's against. You're only as good as your last fight and I can't tell if Munoz overrated his actual stand point or not.

Orcus Knows MMA Better Than Goku -LilBrockonmychest -Orcus Knows MMA Better Than Goku -Jason - I like the champ vs champ fight. About as long as Nick was before he got his immediate shot for being the SF champ. Do you idiots complaining not see a pattern with WEC (Aldo/ Cruz) and SF champs immediately becoming UFC champs (Rousey) or title holders getting immediate title shots? |

Shouldn't we have Cheal vs Silva 3? I mean if Cheal didn't accidentally trip attempting that spinning elbow he'd definitely be the champ right now. |

I don't know why Jacare isn't being talked about as a possible match-up for Silva. I realize that Rockhold beat him, but Jacare appears to have improved considerably since then. I think he would have a very good shot at subbing Silva, and his striking actually looks pretty good now as well. |

Would rather watch Rockhold fight Belfort first. If he wins that he can fight Silva. Neither his last few fights nor his desire for a warm-up fight make me think this will be competitive. I'd rather Silva fight Weidman or Rashad. |

Orcus Knows MMA Better Than Goku -LilBrockonmychest -Orcus Knows MMA Better Than Goku -LilBrockonmychest -Orcus Knows MMA Better Than Goku -Jason - I like the champ vs champ fight. So you're telling me that Diaz was ranked #3 from beating Paul Daley, Evangelista Santos, and LW KJ Noons? You are a fuckin tard. If you don't like that Dana gives immediate title shots to champs of other organizations such as Melendez, Diaz, Alvarez, and now Rockhold, guess you'll just have to cry a bit more. |

guardbr8kr - I lose more and more respect for the Spider as each day passes.It makes me sad. :( this. Anybody who says Weidman shouldn't be next or says that he's entitled is a simple retard. He's earned his god damn shot and when he opens his mouth people think he's entitled?? I would be pissed and disgusted if I was Weidman. Silva is ducking him and he's no less of a draw than Rockhold is |
