Really wanted to see a Mcdonald-Barao rematch but Faber screwed that up. Don't see why you couldn't match up Assuncao-Barao and have a Dillashaw-Mcdonald match same night and then winners face off down the road. Think the ufc wants to buy some time for Cruz to finally get healthy. I would find it hard to throw Cruz right in with Barao straight out tho.

it came out that assuncao had a broken rib so he had to turn down the title fight and tj was next best option...
