As far as the move up to 185 goes I think he's making a mistake, he only has the Silva fight at 185, Silva is a terrible matchup for him, if he loses to Silva then what? He should make Silva meet him halfway, fight at a catch-weight then go back to / stay at 170 and let Rory move up.

a catchweight does sound a lot more sensible, maybe he feels a need to move up to fully commit

No one is counting out Diaz and I can guarantee you Georges isn't either.

Hypothetically speaking if GSP and Rory win you will see Georges move up. On paper Georges is a 4-1 favorite over Diaz but these guys don't fight on paper. Anything can happen in this sport.

Silva vs Overeem was shocking. Imo the biggest upset of the year so far.

shocking is all I can really say. I bet leaving golden glory doesnt look such a wise choice now! I can't wait to hear what bas rutten has to say about that. Reem vs JDS now I think

Not really shocking to me...I thought Overeem would win but still thought Bigfoot had a chance especially after the weigh ins when Overeem didnt look as beastly without the roids. Overeem has lost like this in the past.....and it just adds to his hilarious ko loss compilation

wonder if reem n bigfoot faced off again if he would fight in such a cocky way n actually put his hands up.

edgar v aldo was great. where does edgar go now tho?

Reem vs JDS now I think

If that version of Overeem fights JDS, oh my. Junior will decapitate his head and send it flying by the fourth row.
