I thought Nate was moving to WW? Him vs Woodley could work. Woodley is without any opponent for the near future.

Plenty of time to work on those practice cuts. Nate can't be picky, he needs a fight ASAP. At whatever weight. 10 months since his last fight, will probably be atleast a full year before he is actually in a cage/ring.

You think he is in a cage before mid March?

i misunderstood you... thought you meant we wont see him in another year yet

No I was saying it's been 10 months already and by the time he actually gets in the cage it will be 12+ months between fights because I don't see him taking a fight on short notice after such a long layoff.

lol what a waste of time.

AJ vs Nate for the UFC reject tittle has been scheduled for sometime this spring.... More news to come

BAMMA are such morons, they should have went straight ahead with Nate vs. Semtex.

So u guys think Zuffa would take him back under the SF wing? Does he have beef with Zuffa? Maybe he is looking to stay away?

He's a name and would bring viewers wherever he goes. Would be a nice pickup for any non-ufc promotion. Would be big for Bellator if they could nab him for their next tourney.

Highly doubt he goes to Bellator where he could win a belt and get trapped. I think he just wants to pick up a win or two and hope he's back in Zuffa's good graces

I'm sure if the $$$ is right he won't feel trapped.

And there is always the superfight avenue.

The most likely scenario is him in SF vs Daley for the #1 contender spot.

Seriously doubt that. SF is till owned by Zuffa and Nate fucked Zuffa. He won't be fighting for any Zuffa owned organization anytime soon. He better get some big wins if he wants his second chance.

but i thought it was business as usual? or are we over that

Who said that again? Dana White? Nuff said.

Time heels.

Look at Tito, Diaz, Shamrock, Fitch, etc

Has enough time passed yet? Nate is not the PPV draw Tito is/was. Fitch never did anything that jeopardized a main event. Nate just doesn't offer enough to make up for his mistake. Not enough time has passed and he isn't important enough for them to care about. They will let him suffer for now.

You are fooling yourself if you think "most likely" he will get a fight with Zuffa anytime soon. A #1 contender fight? Yeah I can guarantee you right now that won't happen.
