An Dee...I'm pretty confident that Shad could get to 185 no problem. He only fought at HW because that's what he won TUF at. Guys were just trying to get on the show even if it wasn't their true weight class, ala Ken Flo and Diego. I think he's a relatively small LHW. Guys like him and Lyoto don't cut a whole lot of weight. Trevor Wittman said the reason he advised against that is because Rashad would be in the same awkward position with Nate at 185. He'll bite the bullet here, make Dana happy, avoid any criticism that he ducked JJ, and make a nice paycheck in the process. I'm not saying there will be a Fingerpoke of Doom, but I think they'll mend the fences afterwards, and Rashad will transition appropriately.
