Awesome. A little surprised that switched him over after a loss, but I think he'll be a huge force at FW.

I think he could be top 10 but thats about it... Him vs Aldo would be a cool fight , though. Maybe when Aldo loses to Florian or Mendes he can face Blanco.

Aldo will kill Florian. Not only is Aldo lightyears better, we all know how Florian performs in title fights.

Healy is better to be honest.

@Thiago,

Sorry! I should have put more to that comment.

I meant that I think Healy should be picked up by the UFC before Blanco is.

This is awesome news. UFC should pick up Healy as well, but I'm really excited they're getting Blanco. He goes is extremely entertaining.

Just for ****s and giggles the UFC should put him up against Rousimar Palhares and the viewers can take a shot every time someone does something illegal/controversial/stupid

Good idea, he was pretty undersized against Healy, 145 seems like a much better fit. There's definitely a couple entertaining matches there for him too. I'd like to see him put a beating on Garcia.

Any updates on this guy? He is a very exciting fighter, and I was hoping to see him in the UFC pretty soon.
