It would be nice if the UFC would have Paolo Filho or Dan Henderson face off against Silva. Until that happens, I don't see much competition at Middleweight.

I would rather see Jason Miller or Robbie Lawler return to the UFC right now instead of the Crow.

When I think of Tanner I can't stop thinking of his face after the beating Franklin put on him. They do need credible 185 pound contenders, but unless Evan has dramatically improved, I'm not sure he'll be one. Tito will not be a threat at 205. Everyone he fights (except Shamrock) is surpassing him. I think Griffin would beat him in a rematch and wouldn't be surprised to see Evans win next week (vs Bisping) and beat Tito if they did another match in 2008. Tito is a great promoter, coach and can sell PPV's so there should always be a home for him in the UFC. Ortiz would never make 185 but could easily be a Heavyweight (which I'm sure he doesn't want to do). Nice to see Evan get another chance.

He definately hasn't been the same. I miss him useing his elbows like a knife to slice up opponents faces. I seen him fight in Elite-XC, and he just wasn't "into" it. He lost his spark somewhere down the line, and I hope he gets it back. I would love to see a rematch with him and Tanner. That was a great fight. Tanner was kicking his ass before Dave sliced him up like Zorro. Loiseau was amazing when he broke onto the sceen, but something happened after the Franklin fight. He definately hasn’t been the same.
