My 2nd attempt to break news in as many days.  Hope this one is more successful, but it probably won't be.

In more UFC 149 news, highly-touted Bibiano Fernandes is joining the growing line for a crack at the UFC bantamweight title, and his first test inside the Octagon will be against Canadian prospect Roland Delorme

Can't wait to finally see Fernandes in the UFC. Hopefully the UFC will bring in more DREAM fighters :)

Amazing signing by the ufc. They needed a top notch fighter to add to a weak division. I give him 2 fights before he hits contender status. Being the last Dream champ i think they will fast track him. I think the UFC should also try to sign some of the other guys that were in dreams last BW tournament. Young guys like yusup saadulaev and rodolfo marquez diniz. Id also give dreams last featherweight champ hiroyuki takaya a second stint in the ufc even tho he probably wouldnt last long. Id also grab yan cabral, the 10-0 brazilian that gave sakuraba an raping in his last fight.
