The problems at 145 and 155 can be solved by one simple move: Frankie dropping down to 145.
155 is full of contenders but none can fight for the strap since Edgar keeps getting rematches.
145 doesn't have any real contenders and the ones that are in the title picture out of necessity are terrified by Aldo.

Edgar at 145 would give Aldo a legit opponent and no one would be bothered by rematches there since the division is so thin and the faux-contenders want more tune-up fights. 155 can finally move on and have their contenders fight instead of waiting around or losing title shots because of Edgar rematches.

Win-win for everyone.

Was just going to post this, Aldo struggles with the cut as it is and it's going to get harder as he gets older. Aldo at 155 and Edgar at 145 (switch!) makes sense.

He has a fair point in Lombard but:

Quote:
while I've been knocking out the best fighters in the world
Has to be a misquote right? he hasn't stopped anybody ranked, in fact his losses are his best achievement, in that he lost 2 razor thin fights to top guys (Rashad and Sonnen) that some argue he might have even won. His wins are mostly meh, Rivera, Miller, Akiyama (was a pretty good fight tbh).

As much as it's so easy to just say Hendoknockout.gif and be over with it, who has Bisping KO'd recently? Mayhem wasn't as much TKO'd as much as he fell asleep, Rivera was reeling from an illegal knee, and who have we got after that?

No one, as I said, he hasn't stopped anyone solid ever, most of his TKO's and KO's were in Cage Rage. He does have 18 stoppages out of 22 wins (iirc) but most of them are wasp shot TKO's on gassed fighters and none of them were ranked.

He needs some PR to vet his mouth.

He should be happy that he's had a steady record and actually been able to stay in the UFC for six years.

Heaven forbid he get his precious title shot, lose, and then lose a couple more times and get cut. Well I guess with his UK status, maybe 4 or 5 losses and he'd be cut, but still!

I am so down for Aldo at 155. That division has so many interesting fights for him.

Aldo vs Pettis
Aldo vs Bendo
Aldo vs Diaz
Aldo vs Edgar

I say he he defends 2 more times than moves to 155 than let the 145 division hold a tourney to determine the champion. Build the division like that and maybe even have Faber move up from 135 to give the division more cred than BANG 145 is a stacked division.

MMA fighters should hire managers to get them over with their mic skills. Can you imagine if Paul Haymen was doing promos for Brock while he was in the UFC? He would have made Brock so much bigger than he was.

Nah it won't happen unless he starts fighting safe. He's the only thing holding the division together. As industrian said, you might as well fold it if he moves up (unless a trade with Frankie going down happens as also proposed).

Uncle Dana has confirmed that Faber will be fighting for the Interim Bantamweight Championship at UFC 148 but hasn't confirmed the opponent. Faber mentioned Barao, McDonald and Menjivar (in that order) deserved it.

This of course means the UFC will give Menjivar the shot, lol

Also, Cruz will finish the season of TUF Live as a coach.
