    So, Bader is out, apparently.

    I much prefer this fight. I'm sure I'm not alone in that. Think Te Huna is going to show off his grappling a bit in this one, but if not, it could make for a pretty fun war on the feet.

    Badass. Title eliminator? Might as well, right?

    I imagine it could very well be bumped up to a title eliminator if Mousasi beats Gustafsson.

    Would've preferred Manuwa Vs Te Huna as I think Glover is a bit ahead of the pack. But if Te Huna has a chance to jump up the rankings towards a title shot then I'm chuffed.

    Saying that Glover will sub him.

    Probably, but Te Huna is closer to Glover in the rankings than Manuwa is to Te Huna.

    I don't know who should be next for Manuwa. I'd say the winner of Feijao/T. Silva, but the timing doesn't really work out.

    Maybe Brandon Vera. Established name coming off of a great fight with Shogun.

    Manuwa Vs Vera would work.

    Manuwa vs Vera would be a fun fight for as long as it lasted which i reckon wont be long if Manuwa can put his hands on Vera

    Te huna lives in same part of Sydney oz as I and I'm all for him doing well in the big org like UFC but this ain't going to end well for him .
    Glover will stop him in first or second round ..

    Te huna actually really wanted shogun . Atleast shows he is game for a challenge .
