Why are they dubbing it "interim" lightweight title? Just freakin' strip Sherk...we don't need no stinkin' "interim".

And also I would've made it B.J. Penn vs. Kenny Florian for the Lightweight Title.

They are not going to strip Sherk.
Dana white already said that because the CSAC has bobbled this thing more then enough times, he isnt going to strip Sherk because of it. He will just have the guys fight for the interim until Sherk comes off of suspension (if he gets one) and then have the winner fight Sean. |

I didnt get any pics but I was at the IFL battleground in chicago tonight. Pretty sweet. I got to see ken and frank shamrock, pat militich, and randy cotour all in person which was pretty sweet. The lightweights had some sweet fights though.

Yup. Florian's shot was over a year ago. And he took Sherk the distance, losing by decision. Since then he has done nothing but win, and win very convincingly.
Florian's last 4 fights: Win Din Thomas Submission (Rear-Naked Choke) UFC - Fight Night 11 9/19/2007 1 4:31 Win Alvin Robinson Submission (Strikes) UFC 73 - Stacked 7/7/2007 1 4:30 Win Dokonjonosuke Mishima Submission (Rear Naked Choke) UFC - Fight Night 9 4/5/2007 3 3:57 Loss Sean Sherk Decision (Unanimous) UFC 64 - Unstoppable 10/14/2006 5 5:00 |

Stevenson deserves a shot more than Florian does at this stage.

I thought this would be his first fight when I heard he demanded a name fighter.
Well it's sink or swim for Brock. |

Mir by armbar in the 1st round. That'd be funny. Lesnar takes him down right away and tries to dominate but Mir catches him.

I read that after the Hughes vs Serra match, Hughes is intrested in moving up a weight class and taking on Anderson Silva.
I hate Hughes , but that would be an amazing matchup. |

I dont know. Depends on if Hughes is at his absolute best. I think he'd be the best competition Silva has ever seen and i'd give him a chance to win.

Honestly, I love Hughes - I do... so this may be bias, but I think all of Hughes' positives take away all of Silva's best attacks. I'd love to see it, and see Hughes pull out a W.

Can Hughes get inside of Silva's long arms and legs?

that would be so dumb... the 170 class was pretty much his exclusive weight class for a number of years... no other org. really had it and he was the top dog there... if he went up, hed get his shit rocked. If GSP could get the knock out on him then silva would destroy him. Everyone might not know this but silva is really really good on the ground.

I'm really starting to believe Silva is the best P4P in the world.

So what’s going to happen with the heavyweight title then? Now that Randy has given up?
And I’m glad that Hughes is going to move up a weight, because I’d love to see him get destroyed by Silva, although I’m routing for Serra, so if Hughes loses, would he get that match? I think Silva needs to move up a weight after the (potential) Hughes fight, who else is there left for him to beat? And I’m still campaigning for Rampage Vs Griffin. Everyone loves Forest |

Silva shouldn't go near 205lbs. Too much competition there. I see Bisping, Evans and maybe even Shogun dropping to 185lbs sooner or later. Henderson definately will if he resigns. |

The Hughes thing is a rumor, but seems to have some smoke and where there is smoke, theres fire.
I think you guys are totally wrong. I dont think Silva will destroy Hughes. And i think Hughes is going to kill Serra. Hughes has a chance against Silva. His ground game is way better then Silvas no matter what anyone thinks and his Wrestling will offset Silva's stand up game which happens to be the best thing he has. I dont think Hughes would win outright, but i think it would be very close. |

And Sylvia in the title scene again although his fight against cabbage was legendary/hilarious. So when can we expect a decision from Randy? |

Why does everyone thing Hughes is gonna kill Serra?
Serra has given BJ Penn a much closer fight then Matt Hughes ever did. Hell if BJ Penn's ribs didn't get broken he would have won clearly. This is going to be a much closer fight then everyone thinks. |
