Not high on Munoz, but he should beat Weidman.

All the top Middleweights have fights scheduled, once Bisping vs. Barbarian was set Weidman was the only guy left for Munoz.

Okami & Stann aren't booked either I don't believe.

Silva doesn't usually like to make fights between a winner and loser so Okami is unlikely, and Stann is facing Alessio.

Still I only saw Ninja actually call it.

Still you just got told by a Scotsman.

I was told nothing. Ali is wrong, like usual.

I don't see how he's wrong when his point is valid. Silva doesn't match winners with losers and everyone else is pretty much booked up. Anderson is fighting Chael, Bisping is fighting Boetsch, Maia vacated the division and lost his last fight, Okami lost his last two fights, Vitor is matched with Wanderlei after TUF Brazil, Stann is matched with Sakara and coming off a loss. The rest of the top ten is outside of the UFC. Who else was Munoz supposed to fight?

They could have easily brought someone from SF, matched up winner versus loser which isn't a rule, had him wait for Leben, or had him fight a lower tier guy. Once again Ninja called it well before any of these bookings.

Munoz just beat Leben, nobody has been brought from Strikeforce yet to fill in the gaps and the Strikeforce Middleweight division other than Jacare, Kennedy, and Rockhold suck. So again, who else was Munoz supposed to fight?

The winner/winner, loser/loser is pretty much a rule despite the matchups most of the posters on here seem to make

Munoz smashes.

Joe should alter it in some cases, not every loss is devastating and not every win is convincing.

I agree.

Sometimes he does ie Bisping-Boetsch, but those cases should be very few and far between

Good point I keep forgetting Mike's coming off a loss.

Interesting fight. Weidman with a full camp to work with and a really sneak sub game. Wouldn't be surprised if he slipped a choke on Munoz at some point

I'm assuming this is the number one contender fight. Munoz and Weidman both hold the longest current win streaks in the division after one Anderson Silva.

The winner of Palhares vs Belchar would be at 4 MW wins in a row as would Bostech when he embarrasses Bisping.

New contenders are finally emerging.

I wouldn't be surprised if Mike gets the next shot, assuming he gets by The Barbarian.

I doubt it since he'd be on a 1 fight win streak. I still think he meets up with Franklin in the fall.
