@SugaRashadEvans
@lorenzofertitta i want 2 pick a fight with the middle weight champion! Lol Make it happen!! Please!!

I dunno know Rashad, I'd watch but that's asking for trouble breh

[iMajor]

Probably the best wrestler in that division and only marketable fight left. But again rashad will get hurt badly like some lyoto type sht. Silva might need to jump into the first ever handicap match or something.

 

[FaTaL]

shad needs one fight at 185 first, franklin or sonnen would be ideal

 

[Roman Brady]

I would hate the fight cuz I'll always root for the both to their last day.But if rashad is that thirsty to excelerate his retirement, its whatever

I hate blacks like jones u can just see the envy for his fellow brethren (in his eyes).Judas looking motherfuker, I lot of ppl are trying to say hes nearly matched AS legacy its not just about wins or title defences what about the no of yrs of being the champ?.AS legacy will also be remembered for the memorable jaw dropping moments he provided in nearly all his fights.Something jones has already cease to do this early in his reign



ps is that matt sera? lol he looks like such a potato now.Am I the only one getting sick of the ufc vets lobbying for unimportant rematches/trilogies just to get an easy pay cheque from zuffa? tito got it with forest, Stephan is trying to get one with forrest,And now I hear serra wants his next fight to be with hughes

How'd you get all that from the pic alone? All I see is a look of mutual respect, but at the same time, a competitive nature rather than envy. These are the most dominate fighters in the UFC(aside from GSP), you know...and there's also a way greater chance of them colliding in the future rather than Silva/GSP. You put two alpha male wolves by each other and they're gonna get competitive on sight.

So is it safe to say WW/LW division are the only ones to check for now?

 

[baltimore]

mannn aint nothing wrong with old veterans fighting each other for a paycheck and a some braggin rights.. they still want to compete but acknowledge they no longer can with the elite.. shyt happens in all combat sports

silva v rashad been spoken about by anyone at ufc yet??

Not when its irrelevant it aint, remember (by hook or crook) the ufc is predicated on "what the fans want to see" its the same foolhardy ideology that was going to grant sonnen an instant rematch despite being a challemger that just lost to a champion. No one (not even forrest/tito fans) wanted to see a trilogy to that.Bonnar/Forrest fans dont want to see a 3rd fight to that shyt either and no one wants to see hughes lay on serra to another decesion victory again.Its just self indulgence with no real cache or marketability around, who needs that?

silva v rashad been spoken about by anyone at ufc yet??

Y would they? 4 the longest time rashad has nixed the idea & as we know as we get older our metabolism slows down.If he didnt want to do it a year and a half ao why now? andersons will wreck his face worse than jones ever could

So is it safe to say WW/LW division are the only ones to check for now?

Why because those are the only division the title can change hands in the nearest future? that is so lame, I hate mma fans with that mindset
