After Vitor destroys Weidman:D, I'love to see Rockhold/Weidman, Vitor/Jacare, and Mousasi/Machida II.
Too soon?
Never!
That's one of those tailor made matchups, like Cung Le/Wandy SHOULD HAVE been,
Martin/Leben should have been, Nick Diaz vs. Karo should have been, Robbie Lawler/ Chris Lytle etc.

Van Zant vs. Rose makes no sense at all! Rose is coming off 2 straight losses and Van Zant just wrecked a much better and more experienced fighter in Felice.

Cody Gibson @Cody Gibson - what did you think of last nights card? Specifically Holloway & Rockhold?
Holloway was really impressive. Not too many guys out there are going to beat Cub Swanson up in a stand up war and then to go on to submit him was even gnarlier. All the credit in the world to Holloway but Cub just didn't look like himself last night. Rockhold is a giant. He just looked like he dwarfed Machida on the mat. I actually thought Machida was getting the better of the striking exchanges up until Rockhold got on top. That elbow at the end of round one is what did Machida in. He never recovered from it. 185's is turning into one of my favorite weight classes.

Maybe not rankings wise. It would still be an awesome fight though. Rose won 3 fights on TUF though. They may not be on her record but they are real wins over top 115 contenders.

They should build PVZ slowly. She's really young. It was a good fight with Felice but sloppy too. Lots of crazy grappling exchanges. Not the most technical but amazingly fun to watch.; Super entertaining. IMO Rose, Joanna and PVZ are amongst the top most exciting girls at 115. I'd love to see any of them fight each other. I want to see ALL of them fight each other eventually!

Who do you think PVZ should fight next? I was looking at the rankings, and I can't really pick one. Maybe Marina, the girl who armbarred JoJo in Poland? I think that'd be a good match. makes sense rankings wise too (and Marina should be ranked above Jojo, can't believe she's not, she beat her!)

Yeah, 185 is stacked right now. Going to be interesting to see how the UFC maneuvers all of these guys around, to set up contender & title fights. Do you think Rockhold should fight the winner of Weidman/Belfort?

I think so. If Jacare would have fought Romero and won impressively I think he would have a better case, but If I had to predict, I think they'll rebook Jacare/Romero and have Rockhold fight the winner of the title fight.

Agree Cody. I think Luke makes sense right now as well.

Actually I take back what I said about Felice being better than Rose. I don't have a good knowledge of that division, like at all.

I still don't think they should make that fight, because Rose is a good prospect and going 0-3 would make things really hard for her. She needs some easier matchups, to give her time to work on her skills.
