    Lombard should be fighting Matt Brown.

    I guess that leaves Brown vs Lawler as the fight to make if Nick doesn't want Brown.

    Fuck that, make Lawler vs Nick II. That would sell BIG I think.

    Robbie Lawler vs. Matt Brown announced as the headliner to UFC on Fox 12. Awesome scrap! Hate to see either guy lose. I'm assuming its a title eliminator.

    GSP also is reportedly in negotiations to fight on the December UFC PPV. I'm assuming the year end card. If this is true, it must be against Hendricks.

    The GSP stuff is surprising to me. That's only six months away and didn't he just blow out his other knee?

    There's nothing left for him to prove.

    Yah, I don't see him coming back this year. It took him a good amount of time to come back from his blown knee the first time. If he does come back, I expect it to be around the Super Bowl card or the 4th of July card.

    Wanderlei refused random drug test.

    His reputation has taken a major hit IMO.

    Dubious source (Sonnen) but if true he should be cut.

    Wand has done a lot of damage to his reputation in the past year.

    I could be wrong, but I believe Dana said that when Wand was informed about the random drug test, he basically ran out of the gym and refused to take it.

    If that is the case I am disappointed.

    DC needs knee surgery but would forgo it for now if granted a title shot.

    The UFC is looking to book Barao vs. Dillashaw 2 right away. Some concern among fans that the immediate rematch idea is only warranted for a controversial or very close fight.

    That is ridiculous. Barao does not deserve an immediate rematch. If Gus didn't get one, then Barao doesn't deserve one.

    Like Michael Johnson, Donald Cerrone has volunteered to fight Khabib Nurmagomedov as well.

    Chris Cariaso is 3-2 in his last five with no wins over ranked opponents since Mizugaki two years ago, so, title shot.

    DFW is talking-up the possibility of a Rousey-Carano fight in December.

    Bellator has picked up Paul Daley and Melvin Manhoef. If they can get those guys fights they'll be great signings.
