Dana White is now open to re-negotiating with Dan Henderson as well it appears. Some very intriguing fights that can be made, Machida needs an opponent, why not?

This shit sucks, Zuffa has all the cards in their hand now, play by their rules or that's it.

Then they would have to do the same with the NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, etc...

I think Akiyama/Belfort will be a more exciting fight, but I am also looking forward to Tito/Rashad for sure.

I really hope that Evans Knocks Tito TFK! I can't stand either guy...but Tito is the worst.

Agreed that the Akiyama/Belfort fight will be better.

Doesn't matter, both Evans and Tito get tore up by Jon Jones.

Tito is at least a more exciting fighter than Evans typically...

Rashad seems to have gone back to his safer wrestling roots since been ktfo by Machida, I still think ring rust is going to be huge in this fight, I use to not believe in it but the more I see guys coming off long layoffs the more I believe. I love watching Sexyama fight, that dude brings it every time and has an iron chin. He needs to go back to his grappling roots and use his top level judo to win this fight though.

For some reason I think Tito will pull it off tonight despite Evans being the better fighter.

I'm using the one that NCF posted on the other site and it has worked good. MacDonald definitely made Pyle look his age.
