Cormier is fighting this weekend!

[ufcmma36]

Dana White on the Colin Cowherd show just said they are working on it now, an a new opponent should be announced this afternoon. Note, Dana said Bisbing is on a bender now after winning title fight and will not be considered

[brooks85]

lol about bisping


but that is awesome, definitely saves this disaster somewhat. Hope it is gustafsson.

Alexander Gustafsson ✔ @AlexTheMauler I can be in Vegas by 10pm tonight, just waiting for the call. @danawhite @lorenzofertitta @Ufc @dc_mma

Please be gusta

[PaperTrail07]

Yes yes yes lol.......

[ufcmma36]

Yeah, most likely heavyweight. DC is putting on as much weight as he can right now..lol.

[Killer_Demo]

JDS vs DC at heavyweight

[brooks85]

^say what?

DC is a madman if that is true.

[PaperTrail07]

Avoids the belt on the line....makes sense...

[brooks85]

is it really dc vs jds?

that would be an amazing roller coaster we have been on because dc vs jds is awesome. I don't even care about jones vs dc in that case.

[Killer_Demo]

I looked through LHW and HW top 15 rankings and only compelling fight for me is DC vs JDS. Thats why i posted that. Make it happen Dana

[brooks85]

aww lol

yeah, that would be amazing and even more impressive if dana gets that fight together in time for Saturday. I hope it is someone relevant and like you said, not too many options. JDS would be so awesome tho.

Time is enemy right now. Needs to happen today. I really hope its JDS

Yes,,, Dana did say hopefully will be finalized and announced this afternoon. A. Gustaffson at heavyweight isnt a bad idea..No weight cut... 225-230 is where DC will be roughly maybe a tad more.

true, a loss wouldn't technically matter either. Really is a win/win for both fighters in that scenario. Lots of money and no real tarnish for the loser.

[Kermit]

Mousasi maybe? It would be sick if it was Anderson Silva.

[PaperTrail07]

Bottom line he is keeping the belt...just set up a fight!

[firekillex]

I wish Gustafson would go heavyweight in general I think he'd give stipe a good fight
even Cormier would have a great shot at stipe but he won't do that since if Cain wins he'll probably get a title shot after overeem/stipe...

looking at at the top 15 for lwh and heavyweight I honestly don't see any compelling match ups all of the guys are tied up, he's beat rumble and gus and he said he doesn't want a huge heavyweight so that doesn't leave plenty options, guessing he gets an average fighter and completely mollywhops him with huge slams all fight to get his anger out

this.

[DiggityDaggityDo]

Rashad Evans said he is more than willing to step in on short notice to face Cormier.

He needs a training camp to fight

Would rather see full fight camp Silva.
