    Evan Dunham vs Sotiropoulos/Pellegrino winner - Evan is 4-0 in the UFC and just beat one of the top contenders in the divison I think the logical next step is to fight the winner of Sotiro/Pellegrino and maybe the winner could be looking at a future title shot while I think the winners of Penn-Edgar II and Maynard-Florian matchup.

    Mac Danzig vs Matt Wiman II - I was very curious to see what would happen in this fight and sadly we got to see very little. A clear mistake by the ref and since I doubt the commission can change this result the thing to do it allow them to fight agian like they are doing with Soszynski and Bonnar next month.

    Tyson Griffin vs Sean Sherk II - Why not ? Their first bout was a classic and close 3 round slugfest. Perfect timing right now Sherk's last fight was the loss to Edgar a year ago, hes been inactive and needs a big fight to regain momentum and now Tyson just lost his momentum by losing a tough fight with Dunham.

    Martin Kampmann vs Alves/Fitch II winner - Aside from the Daley bout Kampmann has been very impressive at 170 and showed his ability last night. I think the best thing to do is make this fight near the GSP-Koscheck rematch later this year and step up the whole Kamp/Alves/Fitch winner with a title shot they will have deserved it.

    Paulo Thiago vs Diego Sanchez - Perfect time IMO one of the divisons best in Thiago looking to rebound vs one of the most popular and exicting fighters at 170 and Diego. Both would badly need a victory and im sure would fight their hearts out to get it.

    Carlos Condit vs John Hathaway - Both are coming off big victories and are 1 win away from serious title contention. Stick these 2 young, aggressive and well rounded fighters together and you got the formula for a great fight.

    Rory MacDonald vs Brown-Lytle winner - Rory no doubt has a incredibly bright future and proved vs Condit that he can compete with one of the best but he did fail the test and needs a small step down in competition. I think Brown or Lytle are well rounded and dangerous veterans who can really give Rory the kind of fight he needs.

    Mirko Cro Cop vs Frank Mir - I seriously doubt Frank can make the cut to 205 so lets focus on his next Heavyweight fight. A win over Frank would be the best win Cop's had in 4 years and I think the styles matchup could be in his favor.

    Rich Franklin vs Forrest Griffin - Both are injured and may need some time off so I think when it can be made its a great fight. 2 exicting and popular former Champions looking to build up a winning streak after tough losses and puts the winner back in title contention.
