BJ says he is down to slow roll his return to WW this time

I never implied it wasn't stacked either.

I should have made myself more clearer.

Fair enough.

Two fighters, one of which couldn't touch the top five doesn't make a stacked division. Truth is if it wasn't for GSP running the table the division would already be considered much more competitive than it is already. Rumble, Semtex, Fitch, Alves, Koscheck, Hardy, Paulo Thiago, Saunders and Ellenburger(not quite top ten talent but tons of talent between those guys). How can you argue that division DOESN'T have depth?

Jake Shields couldn't touch the top five at WW in the UFC? Seriously?

We've been over that already, Bobbitt. I'll see if I can find the thread and paste the link.

BJ is the man I was about to leave work yesterday went to his website just to check it out before I left and he was showing this interview live. Him sitting by the beach talking on a conference call with the media, edgar, anderson, maia. Good stuff

Route I'd like to see him take to the WW title match.

1. Carlos Condit - top 15ish fighter with some decent tools to game with. (Does any one else have a feeling Condit will end up fighting Swick soon?)

2. Matt Serra - Another 15 to 10 kind of guy riding benefit of the doubt kinda hype lately.

3. Hardy - Because Hadry won't be champ( I don't think) and Goldie will say "Hardy's meteoric rise in the WW division is from his incredible striking ability, BJ will have what could be his most difficult and important match in all of MMA history'

4. At this point he is either fighting GSP or Kos/Fitch/Alves/Thiago in title or vacated title match.

His third fight could actually be the title fight because we know the guy is always hungry. I think if that is the case it will be against GSP and it will be GSP's final fight at WW which, if he wins, he will vacate the title. BJ would then fight another fight before fighting against the winner of who ever fought the vacated title match. The possibility of a Matt Hughes fight always lingers in there somewhere as well.
