    More free cards I would imagine, with the lighter weight title matched being new potential PPV headliners once they get the guys more exposure on the main cards.

    Winner of Ben Henderson vs. Andy Pettis at WEC 53 vs. the winner of Frankie Edgar vs. Gray Maynard at UFC 125.

    Unify the belts.

    I'm guessing more free cards with continued expansion into foreign markets, heck just running shows in the UK, Germany and Australia 2-3 times a year is going to mean alot of events.

    The increase in title fights is also a huge boost. Put the lighter weights on the free Oz/Euro cards to introduce them to the U.S, and at the same time satisfy the demand for big fights in those markets. It's win win.

    Good news for the little guys hopefully there pay goes up in the UFC for the quality of fights they bring. Shame though because WEC cards were rarely bad always interesting to see
