He's got my vote because he was 9-0 coming into the UFC, is currently 9-2 in the UFC with his only losses to the current champ and former interim champ. He has 3 OTN bonuses earned and 4 finishes. Not too many people want to see another Johnny vs Robbie right now, Lombard fucked for a bit, he already beat Tyron who's ranked 3 while Rory is 2nd according to the UFC rankings, I think Carlos is still recovering? He's in 4th in front of Brown. His last fight was a nice finish over a top 10 guy who never been finished before. Rory is currently on a 3 fight win streak over Maia, Tyron and Tarek. Before his loss to Robbie he was on a 5 fight win streak. As you can tell I'm a fan and feel he's earned his shot, they even said it was his then took it away now its back so I'm happy for him. I really feel Rory is the type of guy who will rarely lose in a rematch and I think he learned a lot from his loss to Lawler. I see either a UD for Rory or maybe a sub late in the championship rounds. Just my .02.
