i think diaz is right about woodley. i'm a fan of t-wood, but you can't go from Challengers to a title shot on a real card. he needs to be tested on a real card first.
i also wanna see daniel cormier tested.
daley will be a good opponent for diaz, & thats who they'll go with cuz thats where the money is. maybe even hold it in the UK, expand the audience as best they can.

I think Rockhold and Mayhem are the only guys that aren't coming off a loss. Maybe give Rockhold a showcase fight since he hasn't been in there in awhile then have him fight Jacare, then the winner of Kennedy-Mayhem gets the next shot. But Jacare said he doesn't want to fight Mayhem again, so I dunno lol.
I'd like to see Lawler fight Cung Le... Do not want to see Manhoef get KO'd again :ermm:
edit- oh shit, they just announced it's Kennedy vs. Rockhold now. Bad move IMO, Rockhold's still young and hasn't fought in a year. Kennedy's gonna grind him

damn, hersche'ls only gettin 5g'z?? lol ..but see, thats how you can tell he's really fighting for the love of the sport.
i liked how he was humble in his interview-- he never said he wanted to be the BEST. @ his age, that just isnt possible, & i'm sure he knows that. but i could see him being a solid fighter for the years he has left in him. i doubt we'll ever see dude fight more than twice a year, but i'm sure everytime he comes out he'll give it 100% & put on a good show. he still has alotta power. the only question for me is his chin & sub defense. both pretty big questions lol. but its hard not to root for the guy..
