@danhendo: All the "injuries" that keep Anderson from a rematch w/ me or Chael will heal real fast if they offer Bisping to him.
Can't say i disagree

Silva seems to often get the easiest possible opponent sometimes. Maia, Leites, Cote I'm sure theres others but my point is that there were more deserving fighters at those times. I guess that would make some suspicious but he also fought Hendo, Sonnen, Belfort etc. so I think that he is not faking injuries. I train and know how easy it is to get hurt, especially training for a fight where it gets kicked up more and more until peak phase (BRUTAL). I understand how bad Hendo and Sonnen deserve a rematch but I don't think Bisping will get Silva before either of them. Sonnen/Hendo did before and could again give Silva trouble but he'd finish Bisping whenever he wanted as I think Bisping will strike.

@jaykool. True as it gets dude. Champions don't duck fights and the oss would sooner strip him of his belt than do it. The paranoia on the matter comes from what I/you mentioned earlier with him getting off easy sometimes, it happens they don't always have the best opponent ready.

With that said, anyone who believes that a fighter can fake an injury doesn't understand how the UFC works. The UFC gets their doctors to check the fighters out, so there is no room for any fighter to just claim they're injured to get out of a fight.

As for Chael vs Munoz being for an interim belt, that's a horrible idea. Anderson is out for what, 5 months? Do you really think every time a champ is injured an interim belt should be fought for?
