| Besides maybe KJ coming down to 155, I see no one on the radar at all...what the hell is he going to do for the next two years? | |

| JZ vs Aoki for next shot.
KJ vs Thomson for soon thereafter.
Healy, Wilcox, Gamebread, Fodor mini tourney for 3rd in line.
Of coarse Frankie vs Gil could be inserted at any point. | |

| I think a fight between him and kj would be awesome. Gil would be like diaz and would keep it standing just to prove that he can for the early part of the fight then would come the elbowsbon the ground. But yeah, thats about it. A rubber match with josh would be pointless | |

| Eh I am not to down on seeing Aoki vs JZ 3...Aoki would win and we all know that he offers little to Gil. Thomson/Noons would a great fight though. Wilcox has tons of potential just not ready for Gil right yet. Needs to be groomed a little bit more. | |

hence the mini tourney. win a couple more impressively and I'd think there be good interest in that fight. For any of those 4 really. | |

| To save face about the UFC stealing their talent they can say the 2 companies have agreed to a trade of Melendez and Mousasi for Condit and Franklin. That way Melendez joins the UFC LW division and Mousasi can get a fresh start while Franklin and Condit give their MW and WW divisions new contenders. |

| No upper-level UFC fighters are getting downgraded to SF
Coker said possibly Wilcox and Masvidal fight and maybe the winner is next in line for Gil. Not sure about that, but they do have some decent talent there. Problem is we've already seen Gil-Aoki/Thomson | |

Problem is we've already seen Gil-Aoki/Thomson Gil Thomson is 1-1 though, both very good fights, and the 2nd one has the stigma of Thomson ring rust hanging over it. But Josh needs to win one b4 we get to that. Gil vs Aoki, is a fight that is more easily argued against, especially in a cage again(so maybe SF's initial foray into Japan?) | |

| With Strikeforce a part of Zuffa now there will be no talk of Melendez-Alvarez at all. Melendez is way too good for the rest of the division and is improving at a great rate. |

Yeah I wouldn't mind see a third fight although Thomson most likely losing to JZ and getting ragdolled by Crusher kind of took some of the luster off of that. They just need to get some of these guys active again...what the hell is going on with Noons? Diaz has already fought twice since then. JZ? Where is he? | |

| Noons did have to heal up more then Diaz did. And Diaz is fighting every 3 months. hard to keep up with that pace.
where is JZ is the bigger question. He complained about a lack of fight a couple months ago.
No doubt both guys need a fight. | |

| I'm sure Aussie George wouldn't argue about heading to Strikeforce and I'd love to see Gilbert Melendez vs Jim Miller. |

| Maybe Anthony Pettis and Gilbert Melendez can unify the WEC and Strikeforce titles if Pettis beats Guida? |

| Gamebred for sure, maybe Aoki again. But in which order is the question? I still think it's too bad Thompson couldn't beat Crusher in Japan. His last fight with Gil was great and he was on his way to beating him again until he started getting kneed in the nuts a bunch. | |

Jim Miller, no fights booked | |
