he says, as all you know i think, that he wants to get back to UFC and that he would win a fight against anybody not top 5.
his top 5 are Overeem, Dos Santos, Velazquez, Mir and Kongo (if im not mistaken).
he even says he would fight just for the win bonus if thats what it takes.
so how do you guys think he would fare in the new heavyweight division?
(i havent seen any of his fights i think since he lost to Minotauro, i think)

I don't think he belongs in the UFC right now. His performances have not justified it and I hope this PR campaign doesn't work. You should get into the UFC based on demonstrating you belong there.

I had to unfollow him on twitter because my timeline was filled with him retweeting fans that keep asking Dana to let him back in

Why not, he had some good fights in the UFC and after all is a former hw champ. He called out "Cheschz Kongo" several times so I wouldn't be pissed if he gets the chance to say goodbye to his fans on the big stage by getting KTFO by one of the HW's who actually belong in the UFC.

He then followed that statement with (paraphrasing) I'd get KO of the Night and make 60 grand. Fat chance.
I'd have no problem with him having a retirement in the UFC, but don't pretend that people want to see you because they don't.

I would watch Big Tim anytime let him prove himself against one of the low tier guys. No reason not to if he is actually willing to fight for peanuts the UFC could make some money off of this. Put him on Fuel prelims and watch the ratings.

Tim has gone 6-1 post Ray Mercer. The 1 loss coming when he bashfully showed up at 311lbs for the wagner fight looks pretty bad. and the competion has been pretty poor but not terrible considering the quality of heavyweights outside of Zuffa/Bellator
