If the UFC was worried about Pettis and the logjam they wouldn't have made him a coach on TUF

Yeah that made no sense, let's make this injury prone champion sit out another 6 months because of TUF.

Also, saw on here or on MMA Junkie that Cerrone has fought something like 3 times as much as Pettis and they came over to the UFC at the same time. Pettis is talented but he's always hurt and he's log jamming the best weight class in the UFC.
Agreed, Cain is in the same boat, fighting once a year it seems. Champs need to fight 2-3 times per year imo. Notice how really active guys never seem to get hurt? Guys that stay in shape and stay training seem to never get hurt or pull out of fights. For example Lyoto Machida, the Diaz brothers, always in the gym everyday and never pull out of fights injured. Guys that let themselves go in between fights and don't stay in shape seem to get hurt, Pettis, Cain, Hendricks.

Nate Diaz returns at UFC on FOX 13 in Phoenix December 13th against Rafael Dos Anjos in the co-main event. That card is awesome so far.

After watching the UFC Embedded I really hope Poirier wins, but at the same time I'd like to see McGregor get a title shot. I think his talking gets in peoples heads and gives him an edge when he gets in the cage. I'd love to see him vs Mendes or Aldo and see how good he really is.

I wouldn't argue though if they give him 1 more fight before a title shot so he can get some more time back in the octagon

Yoel Romero is a different breed of athlete and wrestler.

Corner definitely stalled, not sure how you can blame Yoel for that. There may be a fine coming for that. Big John has to do a better job getting them out of the cage though. That fight was insane.

Big John must do better. I blame Romero because he was still sitting in the stool. It's hard for his corner to take a stool out from under him.

Connor is a star, he hit him in the back of the head a few times but he is so smooth and relaxed and he can crack.
