Weidman deserves it before Gastelum.

If dc wins the hw belt, I may be alone but I wouldnt want to see him fight again at lhw. He doesnt have many fights left and no sense in him sucking down any more. Plus, fights at hw have more interest for me.

And yeah rda vs masvidal for some reason came in my head. Probably b/c he was cornering colby last night and i feel like a win for either would put them right back up there near the top. Not to mention their styles will almost certainly make for an interesting fight.

*Robert Whittaker-heal wait for division to settle and contender to emerge. I don’t believe Gastelum beat Jacare and he just got worked by Weidman. Let Weidman and Jacare fight/ Kelvin/Romero  and if Kelvin somehow wins, he gets the shot. If not, Weidman/Jacare winner. 
*Yoel Romero-Gastelum or Jacare rematch at MW or Latifi/Gus/Volkanovski/aria winner at LHW
*Rafael dos Anjos-Masvidal/Wonderboy or Usman but I want him to fight Till
*Colby Covington- Woodley. If Woodley is too busy hurting himself in Twitter battles again or trying pretend he deserves a superfight give him Usman. 
*Holly Holm- Vieira
*Megan Anderson- Iron strap on tucker
*Andrei Arlovski-Werdum II/
*Tai Tuivasa-  Ngannou/Lewis winner
*CM Punk-low level regional 
*Mike Jackson-contenders series(where he’ll get whooped and we’ll be rid of him too)
*Alistair Overeem-Walt Harris
*Curtis Blaydes-Volkov
 Bektic-Edgar
*MirsadRicardo Lamas-Fili/Choi/Kattar
*Claudia Gadelha-Suarez 
*Carla Esparza-Herrig
*Rashad Coulter-cut
*Chris De La Rocha-Henrique
*Rashad Evans-Bisping and Florian at their desk
*Anthony Smith-Alvey/Jordan Johnson
*Sergio Pettis-Formiga
*Joseph Benavidez-Borg
*Clay Guida-Lentz/Duffy/Green
*Charles Oliveira-Korean Zombie/Moggly at Fw or at LW Teymur/Gillespie/Khabilov
*Mike Santiago-cut
*Dan Ige-Arnold Allen
