Crosby I like the thought of it being Schaub for Brock's return.

I hope it happens. Brock needs a rebound fight and I would favor Brock easily against Schaub.

Also, Schaub has said some stuff about Brock's team "Deathclutch" in the past.

HUGE rumor floating around right now...
The stakes in this Saturday night's (Aug. 27) UFC 134 main event contest in Rio de Janiero, Brazil, may have just gotten a whole lot higher ... at least for one of the two participants.

That's because Anderson Silva, with a victory, may be pegged as the headliner of the UFC on FOX debut special event on Nov. 12 in Anaheim, California. And his opponent, according to reports from Tatame, would be Strikeforce Light Heavyweight Champion Dan Henderson.

The fight, were it to happen, would take place at middleweight and would presumably be for the 185-pound title. In the event that Henderson does not agree to terms with Zuffa on the fight, Chael Sonnen would reportedly be taken out of his fight against Brian Stann and would be granted his rematch against Silva.
Holy Shit......YES!

Don't really have any interest in Henderson/Silva II. Don't see how it goes any different than the first fight.

Sonnen would interest me because I see a clear path to victory for him, basically the same one as last time except don't get triangled with 2 minutes left. Hendo on the other hand, doesn't have the cardio to control Silva for 5 rounds(probably not even 3) so eventually he's going to get clipped and either KO'd or submitted like last time.

I think Silva destroys Sonnen in the rematch. A motivated Silva is the best figher in the world.

I was just going to post this. He would end it rather quick in my opinion.

Just like how a motivated BJ Penn is the best fighter in the world? ;)

I see a lot of unanimous decisions in the predictions for 134. I sure hope you guys are wrong. I'm hoping for finishes in the big 3 fights.

May have to go there, thinking about getting tickets for that Strikeforce in Cinci in two weeks too.

Silva by KO in the 2nd
Griffin by Decision
Schaub by KO in the 2nd
Barbosa by Dec
Nedkov by Submission in the 3rd

Thats what I have for our pick'em contest (that I am in a commanding lead in).

Can't wait to see Barboza, a lot of comparisons to Jose Aldo.

Do you give him a chance of winning or just hoping he does?
