sonnen called out shogun if they make that fight i wouldnt be mad.. think shogun could still take him even if he flabby now

why cant shogun trt with vitor and bring us some classics

 

[pez]

I like the Vitor idea. Bring back Rampage for a one fight deal. Rampage is probably beyond flabby though.

wow. So it looks like Shogun VS Sonnen is official for 161.

It sounds fun in theory because it's Sonnen versus a Brazilian but I bet the fight will suck.

I should know better but what sense does this make?

Looks like Gus talked his way to a title shot.

Davis shouldn't be fighting anyone near the top 5. He should be fighting guys like Bader, Hamill, etc.

He injured his way to the top just like Weidman.

ufc matchmaking logic is equally &

 

[The G.O.D II]

Wow davis just agreed to book himself into gatekeeper status. Machida is a stylistic nightmare for him. His underdeveloped striking and wrestling will be completely negated by lyoto. Another contender killing fight by Silva. As far as shogun/sonnen Sonnen basically has a job for life so there isnt any risk taking 2 week fights. I'm pretty sure shogun feels better about this then fighting lil nog. As long as he doesn't come in out of shape, he should be able to submit chael of his back

 

[Tommy Knocks]

Ya know...I just realized how excited I am about Aldo vs Pettis.
