| Can Gustaffson leap frog Machida in the Rankings if he impressively defeats Mousasi?
Technically speaking, the #2 contender beat the #1 contender, in impressive fashion some might argue, but most vomit in their mouth a little when they hear other people say that. But coming soon, the now #3 contender, soon to be #2 I'd imagine is set to fight the #10 contender. Now #2 beating #1 always trumps #3 beating #10 on paper, but hence the question, can Gus move past Machida in the ranking compilers eyes with a big, respectable win over Mousasi? | |

- "Let's see what happens in that fight and the timeline that they come up with and if nobody gets injured," Machida on Monday told MMAjunkie.com Radio (www.mmajunkie.com/radio). "A lot of things can happen, but depending on the timing, I could even do another fight at a catch weight or something else to not lose the rhythm."
Hmm catchweight........Machida vs. Vitor ?? | |
