With a stacked card already(Aldo vs Koch,Belcher vs Belfort,Rampage vs Teixeira,Silva vs Fitch are the big ones)Big Nog has been retweeting people who say they want him on UFC 153.So this awesome card may be getting more awesome in the near future.

Here's one:

@danawhite The UFC Rio already has one of the best card in years! But please put on @Minotauromma in the event!

Retweeted by Rodrigo Nogueira

If the UFC wants to makeup for UFC 149 now is the time.Add more great fights to the card.Any ideas for an opponent?Although none of this is official at the moment I'm excited for him to get back in the cage.In Brazil to.Last time he was there Schaub went night night.

@WishIsHere I had him winning the 2nd, he landed a takedown, he got a sub, he controlled position for most of the round but Erick Silva had his back for a minute and a sub attempt.

I gave Silva the second. but fitch 10-8 in the third. totaling 29-27.
Theres no shame in getting out wrestled by Fitch, with some conditioning work silva can still be a top guy

That was a damn good fight aswell...no one should talk about LNP from Fitch for this fight. Great fight and he did what he does.
