Are you surprised Dana White didn't rip up tonight's fight card because it has too many good fighters on the card?
I'm surprised he didn't decide to find a loophole in the contracts and give us Elvis Sinosic vs Forrest Griffin in the main event.
Because lets be honest here, Rampage vs (can) Hamill, Dos Santos vs (can) Carwin, these events all have one superstar and a guy who has no business being in a main event.
Facts:
Dos Santos should've had his title shot at least 18 months ago, but since he's not marketable they gave it to Carwin (unbelievably undeserving)
The only reason Jon Jones got his title shot was because of Rashad's injury. If Dana had it his way, the title shot would've been scheduled for some time around 2013.
Nick Diaz had to hold the UFC hostage and threaten to box to get his well-deserved title shot, which is BS. If Dana had it his way, the fight would be also scheduled for 2013.
This is why we never got to see a prime Chuck vs a prime Wanderlei.
If Alistair Overeem wins the tournament, he should get an immediate title shot, but lets be real, that fight won't happen until we all die of old age.
P.S. Enjoy one of the last great fight cards while you still can, cans
