Forgot the Rampage-Glover fight was on this card. Vitor vs Belcher would be great fight to have on FOX.

Vitor is a HUGE draw in Brasil, they love the man. I just can't see Dana not having him on that card

That would make for a pretty sweet card. Aldo-Koch, Vitor-Belcher and Glover-Rampage. Maybe they can get Shogun on the card after he trucks Vera in a couple weeks. Is lil Nog healed up by now? lil Nog vs Shogun would be sweet in Brazil.

I'm still pissed I had to miss Aldo's last fight against Mendez, I'm not missing this one!

I would LOVE to see the Pitbull vs Curran winner take on Jose Aldo. Could be the best fight out there for him.
