Haha, I laughed at the end of this post. Aldo moving up to fight Penn would be too epic for this card. That's a fight that would be a headliner on it's own. I read somewhere that Penn doesn't have to cut too much weight to make lightweight, he's natural at that weight and he's an undersized welterweight. Maybe it could happen, but in a month?Originally Posted by Mojodmonky1
I wouldnt mind seeing Fitch v. Diaz. I'm no sure about Rory v. BJ though. Like someone said, Rory is already on deck to fight TWAS in a future event. Also, I dont know if the UFC wants to derail Rory (again) as he is definitely a future champion caliber fighter.Originally Posted by DeezyVSOP
Something really weird with the Diaz situation. I don't think we've heard or seen the end of it yet. I just don't see him screwing up so badly and losing his chance to fight GSP.
Anyway, Fitch vs. Diaz would be awesome. I wouldn't mind Rory Mac vs. Penn either.
For Brock/AO, the only chance Brock has is to take AO down fast and keep him there. Make it an ugly GNP fight. If he can't take AO down and stays with strikes, it'll be a long night.
Dana mentioned that he had something absolutely crazy in the works for BJ. Maybe the UFC pays a kings ransom to bring Rickson out of retirement? Re-sign that bum Marquardt so he can put his money where his mouth is and get smashed by BJ? See if BJ is willing to move back to 155 and have Aldo relinquish the 145 title and move right up to 155? I can dream right?
Marquardt ain't coming back. That guy screwed up big time.
You never know about Rory, they pulled fighters and changed match-ups in the past, didn't that happen with Rashad/Phil Davis/Ortiz or something like that? Rory looks ready to fight Penn, but that's a pretty big upgrade from his previous fights.
It's not gonna happen anytime soon, but I'd actually like to see Condit vs. Diaz. Stylistically, that would be a crazy fight.
