Joe Silva struggling to find an opponent for Vitor

Sexyama should be the first person considered when it comes to MW strikers, he comes to bang.

Speaking of that is Alan Belcher ready to return yet ?

Vitor vs Sexyama !

Works for me.

Why not Michael Bisping?

I think Bisping vs Sonnen is happening for sure especially since the layoff is over and Dana said he wants Chael in there ASAP

Last I read, it isn't even a sure thing Sonnen gets cleared to fight even after his suspension is over. He has to re-apply and NSAC is still not happy with him.

Because Michael Bisping wouldn't even make it to the Octagon, he'd end up being jumped by a gang of Brazilian she-males in the streets of Rio.

That'l happen sometimes when you use the NSAC and their commissioner in telling blatant lies to other commissions to worm out of a deuce you dropped then stepped in.

Yeah it makes his next fight far from a done deal. So if you are really having problems finding Vitor a fight. Then it makes more sense to give him Bisping then to hope it all works out with Chael.

bisping or sexyama either work imo, even tho Sexys dropped significantly in the rankings it would still make a hell of a fight

Sexyama vs a standup fighter = win for the fans.

yup, Sexy is always a FOTN nominee

Akiyama wouldn't last 3 minutes with Vitor. He got his face beat in by 3 inferior strikers with less speed and power than Vitor

That's going to happen soon. Dana has already said they'll have him scheduled ASAP. Sonnen vs Bisping in the summer

I hope you are right. I'm just not so sure it's a done deal. Sonnen did fuck shit up a little bit. Maybe Dana can smooth it over. Just keep Sonnen's mouth shut.

Chael is in full ass-kissing mode to Kizer. I don't think it will be much of a problem

I agree, but should be entertaining while it last.

Put Chael in there with Vitor and let him see what he can do. We need someone down there to beat a Brazilian up.

According to what Kizer has told ESPN, Sonnen will appear in front of the NSAC on April 27th to re-apply for both his fighter's license and second's license, AKA a cornermen's license.
But why the whole commision?
"I don't feel comfortable granting his licenses based on his background. I feel the issues surrounding him are important enough for him to go before the full commission. That way, the commission will be able to discuss the issues that arose with respect to his last bout in California, as well as his recent criminal conviction."
Sounds to me like Mr.Kizer is going to make an example out of Mr.Sonnen. Sonnen is a highly visible star that brazenly lied to a state commission about his PED use and his dealings with Mr. Kizer and the NSAC. A strong message will have to be sent to other fighters that fighters will be held accountable regardless of their standing with big commission benefactors like Zuffa. Mr. Kizer, this is that opportunity, don't waste it.

Souds like Kizer is going to make things difficult for Chael. Hope it all works out.

Sonnen's hearing pushed back to mid-May.

What kind of reason is that?
