Rashad Evans vs Quinton Jackson or Thiago Silva
Lyoto Machida vs Forrest Griffin
Rich Franklin vs Wanderlai Silva
Mauricuo Shogun vs Ramier Sokoudju

I think it ends up being Machida vs Evans in the end, but out of these 9 warriors anything can happen. What do you guys think?

Rashad is getting a title shot.

Thiago Silva is injuried.
Sokoudjou is fighting Luiz Cane.
Shogun and wandy arent suppose to be on untill the decemeber card.

So I dont think your plans works out too well.

yeah sorry bro. none of them will. same fighters just different combos. most likely with a couple of exceptions it will be Rashad vs Forrest, with mashida there has been talk about him vs Thiago after he recovers or vs Franklin. and i heard either wandy or shogun were gonna fight jackson. someone else could probably tell you better. For some reason i feel like Wandy was the more sure rumor i heard.

I think rashad deserves it, machida made his own bed by fighting boring.

I'm so glad someone makes sense in these stupid forums. He really does. I think rashad vs forrest would make more a more exciting fight, like war wise. Plus i would rather see rashad then machida as champ. i'd rather see anyone....

If rashad gets a straight title shot, i will be amazed. Dana wont let that happen, his best friend liddell just got ko'd by rashad. Dana will pair rashad up with another striker first, maybe machida or further down the vague ufc rankings with vanderlei or thiago. If chuck had won, he would of got his title shot. Rashad does deserve it now !!!
