What to do for Anderson's next title fight.
Is it me who thinks it is likely to be the outcome of Rashad's fight with li'l Nog? 
I hope so!
I think he's awaiting Lorenzo's instructions 
Is Shad a paperview draw?
If thats what he's waiting for, book it already. Shad has the Nog fight won, for sure. No disrespect meant to a legend like nog. I think dfw might be waiting to see if rockhold vs belfort falls through and weigh it against the shad option. Weidman will get his shot sooner or later and I don't blame silva for putting that one on hold. Chris is an absolute beast. You could argue that rockhold as a champion deserves it more and his win over jacare is more impressive than some of Weidmans wins. Shad, if he can make 185, would deserve a shot immediately. He lost to jones and that's about it. If he fought machida again and wasn't sloppy and over confident, I think he takes the rematch. So basically shad is #2 at lhw and would be a no brainer for instant title shot at mw. If shad doesn't get that shot I'd love to see him and Hendo...man, imagine that shiz.

Rashad beats Machida 1 out of 20 times.

Ive always thought shads loss to machida was one the single biggest underperformance by a championship level fighter, I've ever seen. I know that some fighters are bad matchups for others but if the tricky ass shad who fought Davis and page fought machida (now), i feel it would be a much different fight. Maybe I'm wrong (wouldn't be the first time).
