I thought for sure that Colton Smith got cut until I saw his profile still on UFC.com. However, I noticed that the UFC lists his record at 6-3, but both Sherdog and Tapology (and wikipedia as well) have his pro record at 3-3

Having the profile on UFC.com means nothing ... they have the worst update rate in the history of majors sports promotions/leagues websites ever.

The only things they update regularly are the cards and news portion. 

Also, I guess they don't see any harm in padding their TUF winner's record a bit :)

Cormier vs  Phil Davis 
Brandon Thatch vs.Stephen.Thomson
Rory.MacDonald vs Matt Brown
Mike Pyle vs Nico Musoke

The ones I really want to see. I think Joe Rogan overrates Thompson incredibly, a lot of guys think can outstrike and or knockout him at 170lbs.

Cat has been out over a year by the time she returns, she needs another fight before a title .

Rashad Evans is out for a minimum 6 months off a knee injury, Cormier shouldn't wait for.Evans tha long.

Condit has been told upon a win overly Woodly he gets.a title shot, Rory.rematch makes no sense.

Maia and Kim already fought, presuming Maia on a 2 fight losing streak and Kim most  likely being on another impressive run if he beats Hathaway the rematch.makes no sense.

Mike Pyle vs Mike Pierce just isn't an appealing fight. Two old guys struggling to stay relevant,.Pierce  been out for a long time injured also. It's better if Pyle gets to move forward with his momentum since its his.last , fighting.hot up and.comers and derailing them is the best way for him to get into the top 10'or  an top 10 opponent.

All in all I always think your proposed match ups are way.off and ill thought of @Bill

-Rousey vs Davis -  Unfortunately I don't think that Zigano is ever going to come back. She was out due to injury, and then lost her husband.  Now she is a single mom, who's head probably isn't in the right place.  I doubt if she has been rehabilitating her injury or even training at all.  Her number one priority has to be raising her kids.
-McMann vs Tate/Carmouche winner
-Cormier vs anyone in the LHW top ten
-Cummins vs Drysdale - Didn't even think of this, thanks @mikelovestacos, and if cummins loses in spectacular fashion cut him.  He shouldn't have problems finding fights after two beat downs.
-MacDonald vs Condit vs Woodley loser
-Maia vs Koscheck
-Pyle vs Ellenburger/Saffadine winner
Not really sure about the rest right now.

@Nomad  Thanks for the kind words of support.  I like you too.

If Cat is forced to fight a tune-up, that is unjust.

Last I read, on February 12, the doctors believed Rashad would need 4 weeks of rehab, and the UFC was thinking of adding Cormier vs. Evans to April 26 in Baltimore.

Condit is not assured of beating Woodley.  But UFC is anything BUT reliable in keeping their title promises.  All depends on how other fights shake out.  Thought you knew that.  Guess I was wrong.

Demian Maia beat Dong Kim on July 7, 2012.  Today, Kim is going strong and Maia has lost 2 in a row.  What's wrong with giving both someone of their own ranking, and letting Kim have his vindication?  

Mike Pierce is only 33 years old.  You call that an old guy?  He was injured on October 9, 2013, and must be recovering by now.  But to give him a guy on his own level is 'not appealing'?  They are both trying to fight their ways towards the Top 10.  I presently have Pyle ranked #15 and Pierce ranked #16.  Perfect fight matching.  

I think you are too young to appreciate the fine nuances.  But to give you your credit, you make a lot of great posts.  But when you post a clunker, it really clunks, like a sneaker in a dryer.

I like you too bill, you look like a good Italian American boy.

Ha ha ha.  What nationality are you, Nomad.  How old are you?  Tell me.  Does you wife ever accuse you of being sarcastic, snide or slippery?  I wish you had posted a photo in the photo thread.  I am too influenced by user-names and avatars.  Nomad sounds SO Bedouin, nomadic and Middle Eastern.  Not that there is anything wrong with that! (Seinfeld reference) Wink.

I can almost visualize you in flowing Arab robes, riding a camel with an Uzi on your lap.  

I was a nice Catholic kid who grew up to be a grouchy, old nerd.  Love to cross swords with the Young Turks like YOU.

My match-making is horrible?  Ha ha ha.  My match-making is surperb.  Let's look at yours.

Cormier vs  Phil Davis---------------------------boring.  Cormier will murder Phil in Cold Blood.
Brandon Thatch vs.Stephen.Thomson---------Brandon is too well-equipped.  Too one-sided.
Rory.MacDonald vs Matt Brown-----------------Rory is now hot again.  Matt was hot, got hurt, but was never on Rory's level.
Mike Pyle vs Nico Musoke------------------------I thought you wanted Pyle to fight his way up, not down.  Where's the benefit to Mike if he wins?  Oh I forgot.  You suggest he fight his way down the ladder!  Nice!  I like your non-logic.  Very Zen.
