Next Middleweight Title Fight?

Would you like to see a rematch or Vitor Belfort get his shot?

even though all i have seen is the triangle so far, from what ive heard Sonnen was clowinin till he did what he normally does and fell into a sub

I think VItor vs Anderson, then reguardless win or loss, Anderson vs Chael after Vitor finally gets his crack

I'd like to see-

Anderson Silva vs Vitor Belfort
Chael Sonnen vs Damian Maia

Cheal gets subed again vs Maia IMO

SONNEN is a god wow what a good fight shitty he got caught at the end! he needs a rematch asap!

I would like to see Vitor fight some1 else to make sure he is 100 percent before fighting Spider and I think Chael earned a immeadiate rematch. He dominated that fight and really beat Anderson up.

l wouldn't argue with-

Anderson Silva vs Chael Sonnen
Vitor Belfort vs Damian Maia/Yushin Okami

That sounds about right to me.

I'd like to see a rematch but Vitor is next in line. If Anderson beats Vitor I want to see Chael rematch him because he dominated Anderson for 23 minutes of that fight.

LC Called it, but I wouldn't be upset if Chael got the rematch.

Sonnen has earned a rematch but we need to get the Belfort fight out of the way already. We were suppose to see this fight months ago, there is a reason why Vitor's sitting on the bench and hasn't got a fight scheduled with a top Middleweight.

I am more excited about a Vitor fight after realizing Silva's reflexes are starting to leave him, Anderson relies on his athleticism and looks on his way to a Roy Jones Jr like downfall.

Vitor was supposed to get a shot and he got hurt. Dont want to sound like a chump but he got hurt Chael stepped in and dominated the champ and i believe should be in line for the rematch while Vitor proves he is healthy.

Eight of Sonnen's losses have now come by way of submission.

Yes is needs to try to stay out of the subs but he dominated the Champ for 4 and a half rounds where the whole time in the UFC Spider has lost maybe 2 or 3 rounds total. The guy deserves another shot.

Vitor was supposed to have a title fight already. Sonnen just filled in for him. So why does that mean Vitor shouldn't get a shot now? If the fight had finished close I could see it warranting a instant rematch. Tap outs aren't close finishes.

As a Vitor fan I honestly want to see him get a warm-up fight in first. Hasn't been in there since 103 and had surgery...give him a decent fight to get back in the swing of things as I've already seen 2 of my favorite fighters suffer from ring rust the past few months, don't need another

I don't see how a challenger who got submitted gets an instant rematch.

A rematch, no doubt, and soon, but not an instant.

I don't see why he shouldn't. Its not like there's any precedent of this to go off of. We've never seen a champ get absolutely dominated for 4.5 rounds only to pull out a miracle win. Other than Vitor, is there a single interesting fight at MW?

Ur right Bobbitt there are really no interesting matchups at MW excet Vitor or a Sonnen rematch.

A part of me doesn't want Silva to linger at 185 any longer with rematches. Fight Vitor, then 205 or GSP.

but there is Vitor. And there is certainly no precedent for a challenger who was submitted to get the instant. This would be a first. I think Im correct in saying that.

Yeah there may not be a precedent for it Captain but I dont know if a challenger ever dominated the way chael did only to get tapped like that. Another 2 minutes and we maybe saying chael beat Anderson 5 rounds to nothing.

We would be saying that had he not been caught in a triangle. That fight would have been 50-44 if not worse than that.

Thats why I think he deserves a rematch like now!!!

I don't disagree, Tim. I think the UFC wants to dtrike while the iron is hot with Vitor.
