Matches to make post 136 edition

I don't think Gil should be moved over to the UFC so quickly. It's not like 155 doesn't have contenders. The winner of Guida/Bendo deserves a title shot. Let the winner of that fight have Edgar and Gil fight Jorge on SF 37. Let Gil fight the winner of Guida/Bendo vs Edgar afterwards.

I like this scenario.

Gil earned the right when he put the worst beating on Kawajiri we have ever seen. Kawajiri is a solid top ten fighter at lightweight and has been for some time now, Gil was out over a year and still made him look like he didn't even belong in the same cage.

Hasn't been top 10 in quite some time.

Easily handled another solid top 10 in Aoki, great 5 rnd fight with Josh. The Ishida W was a solid W as well. Numerous guys have been given UFC title fights with less accomplished. And the title vs title hype factor is a big bonus.

Though Im with Ninja in saying let Gil beat Jorge, let Fankie fight, Bendo/Guida winner, and then unify the titles.

Gil's wins on his 5 fight win streak = #1 contender for any LW title in the world. The thought that he needs a win in org is asinine and comical.

Disagree. He still needs to beat an contender IMO. But I said the same thing about Diaz too. Seriously who the hell has Diaz beat? Glad he has to face Penn.

Welcome to my club.

Well he did just KO the same guy Kos beat just before he got a title shot. And I'll take a W over Shammy over a W over Trigg.

And let's not even get into Hardy's prey prior to 111.
