This is fucking stupid. Rampage hates coaching, why the fuck would he do it again? I hope they do a UFC: Prime Time or w/e it was called for these two. I hope Rampage gets his title shot before this, too.
Say Rampage gets his shot in September against Machida like rumored, he should be ready to go by Ultimate 2009 in December for either a title fight against Rashad or a normal fight. Imagine it. UFC 107: Ultimate 2009: Black on Black Crime
Supposedly there won't be preliminary fights to get into the house for season ten. Instead all sixteen guys have been chosen from the tryouts. Additionally, the entire group will be made up of heavyweights. Odds are they couldn't find 32 good heavyweights to try out so just picked the best 16 they could find. No doubt we'll be seeing some guys that should be fighting at lower weight classes trying to make the best of the opportunity.
It seems taking the coaching gig means Rampage won't be getting a title shot against Machida--at least not right away. So there is an opening.
From Yahoo.com I guess Rampage wants a piece of Evans more than he wants a title shot. That and he was probably pressured to do the show.
Fuck, I hope Page knocks him the fuck out. I think you're going to see a lot of people avoiding a shot at Machida. If Griffin can upset Silva, I wonder if he takes a shot at him. Who else is there? Shogun? God no.
