I think Arlovski should fight for the title. I hope the UFC doesn’t think that the heavy weight division will be any good without Arlovski. He is the number one contender and you would think they would sign him. I can’t believe they are giving him such a lame opponent!!!!!! Give him the title shot or someone like Congo!!!!!

I think Arloski should re-sign a contract with ufc and him, Nogueira, Sylvia, and Congo can be at the top of the heep fighting to rise to the top. I like the Idea that Tito is fighting again but I dont see his future with the ufc going anywhere as he is pre occupied with television apperances and other buisness propostions. This will get in the way of his fighing and he could lose the fight. I consider him a pioneer of the sport but it seems to be over. The next middle weight bout will be great as I hope Henderson endours Sylvias persission strikes. Henderson is stronger and could pull off the victory, but still the underdog.Diego Sanches is ready for some action and good luck to him as he is from my home town. GSP is still the best, but he frequentlly trains here in Albuquerque. And as far as the Light Weight division goes, BJ is very good but Sherk Still seems to be in much better shape as far as endourance. BJ was really huffing and puffing at the end of the fight despite his six pack. Its a great match as both have lost to GSP,and Huges Once at 170 pounds.

I think they have the lighter 2 right… St Pierre is the champ…he is the best… but i want to see him fight Jon Fitch, not Serra.. but whatever…let him get a chance to redeem himself…as for Lightweight…i think the fight in May will be amazing…sherk and penn…ill be paying to see that!

I would have loved to see the Heavyweight, Welterweight, and Lightweight belts all scrapped. Take the top 4 ranked in each weight class and let them duke it out this year culminating into one huge mega pay per view night crowing 3 different legit champions.

Werdum gets a title shot because there is no one better to give it to!! I’m sorry, but who should they give it to? Brock Lesnar (assuming he beats Frank Mir) – not likely…He will need a few more fights before he can get something like that… Cro Cop?? Ha..no….Arloski? well maybe… that is, if he re-signs…if he doesnt, then duh.. obviously Gonzaga is out….Jeff Monson? I dont even know what happened to him after the Sylvia fight….Brandon Vera? No..he just lost.. so he is out for awhile…which leads to possibly the best bet, which is Cheick Kongo – and if he wins his next bout, then his next fight will be a title shot…so I think the UFC is doing it right..the heavyweight divison isnt stacked like other divisions…not a lot of worthy prospects for title shots…unless georges st pierre wants to move up for this belt too…ha..jk

i hope the ufc can sign gomi hes top class. i agree that the heavyweight picture is poor at the moment how does werdum get the shot when he lost to arlovski? its only because the ufc havnt got him tied to a long contract yet.

I definately am not very happy with the state of the Heavyweight divison right now. How in the hell does Werdum get ba title shot. He beat a guy who just lost his title shot????? What the DEUCE!!!!! Not happy at all my friends!!!! On a better note, the lightweight divison is much better, but how the hell is a STRIPPED “STEROID SHARK” #1?????? BJ had some good things to say at the post fight press conference, I recomend looking it up.
