    Dangit... I really, really wanted Kharitonov to make the move from Pride to the UFC but never really heard anything about the UFC even trying to sign him. He was a top shelf HW and would have been top 4-8 in the UFC easily. I don't know if he ever becomes a title holder but a solid and entertaining banger who seldomly took serious punishment. Now he's 35 and going to get some easy fights in Bellator and look good.
    Also 28 career fights... 2 went to decision.

    "you don't know what you got til it's gone"

    I really miss GSP too, but I don't want to see him come back at all. He just won't be the same.

    Ben Rothwell will fight Junior dos Santos next.

    I get it. It's the next best thing to a title shot. However Rothwell has a win over Reem who just beat JDS. Dude is treading water.

    This is why you don't book Cain Velasquez in immediate rematches!

    UFC wants this fight for UFC 199. Some negotiating to take place, still.

    Albert Tumenov has called out Stephen Thompson.

    Thompson is #3, Tumenov I think #13, seems unlikely Thompson will take that fight. Better off fighting Maia, Woodley, MacDonald, or getting a title shot.

    Depending on McGregor's performance vs. RDA, McGregor/Aldo 2 is a possibility for UFC 200. Not sure where that leaves Frankie Edgar.

    Also possible-- Robbie Lawler vs. Tyron Woodley/Stephen Thompson, Dominick Cruz vs. Urijah Faber 3, Werdum/Miocic.

    He has a strong will to succeed. I don't doubt that he will compete eventually. He's 37.
