That's who I think is next if he wins, but he still has to win. Would not be surprised if they pull Werdum off TUF and put him and Cain on TUF mexico since they both know Spanish. Also would be huge for the Mexican audience.

Velasquez vs Struve/Hunt winner?  no way.


Reem if he gets passed Bigfoot and if he doesn't then Werdum if he beats Nog.


It will be interesting to see who they match JDS with. will they feed him or put him straight back in with another top 5 fighter?

And if Silva beats Reem? Wouldn't be fair to Silva that he doesn't get a title shot all because he was expected to lose.

He should get one if he wins, but it would also make very little sense, since Cain just destroyed him in May. Then again if he somehow won that fight, he wouldn't certainly get the title shot either. That's one of the reasons why I firmly believe that MMA or at least UFC really needs rankings or ladders, at least some sort thereof.

I would be supposed of deem cant get past Bigfoot. If he doesn't though, I don't think that silva should get a shot based off two wins

i read somewhere dana said if werdum beats big nog, he gets the shot. we got him, reem, and cormier waiting. any of the 3 sound good to me

i wouldn't mind a jim miller vs lauzon 2, but other than that...
lauzon vs nate diaz.
 miller vs maynard. 
okami vs lombard
best matchups i can think of right now

Werdum vs Cain would be a hell of a fight.
Werdum's stand up has greatly improved and with is BJJ it would take away some of Cain's wrestling.

Would rather see Jacare vs. Yushin, if Jacare beats Ed Herman in two weeks.

I think Okami would probably smother Costa.

If Jacare beats Herman, then i'd love to see him fight Okami.

Costa's TDD is probably much better than Belcher's so a fight with Okami would probably go differently. That win put Costa in the top 10. A win over Okami would definitely put him in the top 5
