I don't see either of those guys as title contenders in my humble opinion. I'd put Okami, Bisping, Sonnen and Stann ahead of Leben and you're right in saying that Wandy wouldn't be in the mix with a win.
I just feel like if Leben loses it would be his 2nd in a row after a three fight win streak that saw him knock off Akiyama in his big debut on like two weeks notice. Shit like that wins you extra lives with Dana.
If Wandy loses that's 4 out of his last 6 and I think he'd be closer to the cut list. The only thing that might possibly save him is the fact that he lost to a murderers row of fighters that there's no shame in losing to.
