If Benavidez wins does he get another title shot?

I like the FLW's but Dana really needs more fighters at this weight class or Ian, MM, Benavidez and Dodson are gonna keep fighting each other

I agree they need to hit up the global talent pools and find us some more lower weight guys

Benavidez said a month ago he wanted to fight more and doesn't care about the title at the moment. I want to see John Moraga get a shot. I'm tired of these rematches.

Asia and Latin America probably have a lot of unknown talent at this weight class

 Maybe Moraga gets the next title shot and then pending a Benavidez win there could be Dodson/Benavidez #1 contender fight. I know what you're saying about rematches but I would love to see MM/Beefcake 2 or MM/Dodson 2. Both were great the 1st time.

Prediction: wrong McCall   wrong Decision  

I REALLY want McCall to win, but I'm a fan of both guys, and i think Benavidez might win this. I'll probably end up switching my pick like 20 times before the event lol. 

On another note, I honestly don't wanna see either guy rematch MM yet.

If McCall wins that means a 3rd fight with MM in about a year. There isn't really another contender other than these 2.

Prediction: correct Benavidez   correct Decision  

I think Benavidez is just a little bit better a wrestler, and he hits a bit harder with his hands.  He can also threaten with that guillotine of his. 

It should be a tough scrap, but Benavidez will probably win the decision.

MM was hittin Creepy, and making him do the stanky leg. Joe hits him, and he might get knocked out. I got Joe via decision tho.

I'm kinda surprised that more people aren't picking McCall.
I think that if the Uncle Creepy from the first fight against Mighty Mouse shows about it's gonna be a long night for Joe.

I think the UFC should give John Moraga the shot if he gets another win, it's way too soon to give McCall a third fight and Benavidez a rematch.

Prediction: correct Benavidez   correct Decision  

The most striking aspect when breaking this fight down for me is McCall's pending divorce. He stated it affects him right now. He stated in an interview that he wants to get this fight over with because he needs to fix his life. If his head is not in the game right now, a small lapses can cost him vs. a quality opponent like Benavidez. Also McCall is coming off from a knee injury and layoff. If McCall looks bad or comes in under/over weight, I will be picking Benavidez by finish (most likely submission).

I honestly don't think McCall is as good as people make it out to be. Benavidez is much better in just about every aspect. McCall is too ****y for his own good.

This fight is really hard to pick it could go either way. In my opinion.

Guess this is gonna be a title eliminator of sorts too. I mean, there's no one else for MM to fight.
