    Gegard Mousasi is back under the knife for a second ACL surgery on the same knee. He's expecting to be out until late 2013 or early next year. Looks like we won't see the Gustafsson fight anytime soon.

    Josh Barnett wants his return to the UFC fight to be against Frank Mir. Makes sense to me.

    Alistair Overeem's next fight might be against Travis Browne at UFC 164.

    Dan Cormier wants to fight in August in Boston. Possible opponents include Roy Nelson & I don't know who else.

    Magney vs. Moraes added to UFC 163

    ^ Rumour has it the UFC is hoping to put Jon Jones vs. Alex Gustafsson as the main event of the Boston card, with Bendo vs. Maynard/Grant headlining UFC 164, or vice versa. Thinking Bendo would like to get a PPV cut every once and a while.

    I'm guessing the UFC dodged a bullet with the JDS fight. Reem can sell tickets and PPV's. No need to have him get wrecked in two straight fights. Obviously Browne could knock him out as well...

    Daniel "D.C." is this my real voice Cormier wants to face the winner of Nogueira/Werdum next.

    The main event of UFC on FS1 is likely to be Bendo vs. Grant but three other fights are being considered, according to Dana.

    Gustafsson vs. Jones might not be next?

    Donald Cerrone was asked after UFC 160 if he'd be interested in fighting Josh Thompson (naturally). Since Thompson beat Diaz (who beat Cerrone) I don't think this fight makes as much sense as Pat Healy vs. Josh Thompson (rematch). Cerrone can fight Rafael dos Anjos in the meantime?

    GSP vs. Hendricks still hasn't been booked. The UFC is looking to return to Canada (Toronto) before the end of the year...

    Why do I get the feeling that Dana is waiting for Weidman/Silva to happen before he does anything with GSP. If Weidman wins, I get the feeling Dana is gonna throw a lot of $$$ at GSP's way.

    If I'm Hendricks, I'm calling the media and letting them know that I'm frustrated with STILL waiting....AGAIN.

    Luke Rockhold wants to fight Michael Bisping next. Bisping told him to win a fight in the UFC first then they'll talk.

    Bisping 1, Rockhold 0
