    Rampage should get the winner if he gets by Evans.

    If he doesn't, Evans should fight someone to be the #1 contender. I can't fathom Randy getting another shot.

    Earn it, Randy. Beating Coleman and Toney is nothing.

    Randy has had too many damn title shots already. Time for him to step aside and let the new fighters take over.

    I don't know about a title shot, but if he shuts up Toney, they should give him a big money fight just as a reward!

    He should fight the winner of Rashad/Rampage, I think, if he beats Toney.

    No, the winner should get a title shot.
    Maybe give him the loser of Machida/Shogun?

    If the winner is Rampage you mean?

    Yeah, loser of Machida/Shogun works too. Either/or.

    Randy should have to beat a legit 205er before he thinks about title shot. I don't care if it's Evans, lil Nog, 'Page, or anyone. Just someone that's still in his late 20s or early 30s that doesn't move like a snail.

    Randy Couture and his delusions of grandeur. Dana should haul him aside and let him know his days of title shots are over.

    I like the idea of Randy getting the loser of Rampage/Rashad.

    In that case, I kind of hope Rampage loses because I'd love to see him connect one of those left hooks to Randy's dome.

    Yep. Won't be Randy though--sounds like the winner of Jackson/Evans will challenge next.

    Obviously the storyline with Rua makes a Jackson rematch much more interesting.

    Rampage KO 2. He won't break a rib in this fight. He's a much better fighter than he was in Pride, now.

    Dunno man, Forrest tore him up with leg kicks... Rua would take his knees home with him.
