    I'm down for this fight, either with both of them on TRT or neither of them. Preferably neither.

    Whens the last time we saw neither of them not on TRT? Don't want to be pro-PEDs but I also don't want to see a pathetic old man fight.

    I don't think it will be Couture/Coleman 2. I think they are both still capable fighters. Not like they won't be on whatever for camp and cycle off just in time for the bout.

    Hendo wasn't on TRT for his fight with Rashad.

    I'm down for Hendo and Belfort, though.

    UFC reportedly targeting Machida/Belfort at 205. I dig it. Hopefully Machida can KO him.

    Machida is thinking about 185-lbs. but I would imagine he'll wait and see what happens with the Silva rematch. Dana says the fight with Belfort could happen at any weight. Machida dislikes Belfort following a t-shirt Belfort wore that said something like "your son doesn't run" which Machida took as a slight to him for turning down the short notice fight with Jon Jones. Bleh. Machida says the Belfort fight could be the first soccer stadium fight in Brazil.

    Sounds like the proposed Machida/Belfort fight will take place at UFC 167 and is likely to be at middleweight.

    Maybe Machida doesn't like Silva's odds in the Weidman rematch?

    Robbie Lawler vs Rory McDonald is supposedly going down at an event later this year.

    Chael Sonnen has accepted Vitor's challenge. Make it happen Dana and Joe. Hopefully Chael can pull it off.

    Another fight where they supposedly set up Rory to box but Lawler will be so concerned with the TD and Rory's G&P that it won't play out the way they want.

    Agreed. I just see 3 more rounds of Rory vs. Ellenberger.

    Ellenberger/Lawler would have been one hell of a scrap.

    Conor McGregor's team wants Diego Brandao in December. Great fight.

    Machida has taken the Tim Kennedy fight in November, officially moving him to middleweight. With him and Vitor booked that could only mean we are going to see Wandy lose to Chael Sonnen.

    Wanderlei/Sonnen to possibly co-main event UFC 167. Isn't that the same card with Hendro/GSP and Robbie Lawler/Rory Mac.

    Korean Zombie out about a year due to surgeries.

    Machida down to MW? Should be interesting. I wonder how Anderson feels about it?

    Ben Askren might be on his way to the UFC. Bellator supposedly not interested in re-signing him.

    Wanderlei balking at a fight with Sonnen, says he wants more money.
