I think any combination of Diaz, Condit, Kampmann, and Koscheck all make sense. I think those 4 guys need to fight each other in some combination.

Mike Bohn....
Pablo Garza just told me he's planning to drop to 135 for his next fight. He says he knows he can make the weight. Wants to be champion.

Georges St. Pierre vs. Anderson Silva

Johnny Hendricks vs. Rory MacDonald (If Rory beats BJ) OR wait for GSP
Martin Kampmann vs. Josh Koscheck
Mark Hominick...I'm a huge fan but I fear he will be getting his walking papers.
Matthew Riddle vs. Dan Hardy

GSP v Silva
Hendricks v Diaz on the same card, so Hendricks can fill in if Silva gets hurt
Hominick should be cut.... Four fight losing streak.... And tonight wasn't an exciting enough fight to save him simply for being exciting.... He needs to put together a few wins on the B-market to rebuild his confidence after the Aldo and Jung beatings....

How does Hendricks vs Diaz make any sense? Diaz loses his first fight in the UFC and gets a year suspension only to come back and face the undisputed #1 contender coming off 5 straight wins? Diaz needs to fight either Condit, Kampmann, or Koscheck IMO

GSP - Anderson Silva - Ufc wants it to happen and I believe they will throw money at it until it does
Condit - Koscheck
Hendricks - Rory MacDonald (if he beats BJ) If not then Nick Diaz
Kampman - Nick Diaz ( I think this would be a really good fight)
Dos Anjos - Jim Miller
Bocek - G Strot (no matter if he wins or loses)
Makdessi - Michael Johnson
Stout - Danzig

GSP vs Hendricks
If GSP fights Silva-
Hendricks vs Rory Mcdonald if Mcdonald beats Penn. If he loses to Penn
Hendricks vs Diaz
Condit vs Kampmann
Carmont vs Lawlor rematch- If not
Carmont vs Munoz
Carmont has won 9 in-a-row and 4 straight in UFC. Time to step up in competition
All the rest of the fighters and winners held absolutely no implications in thier wins or losses which leaves me to say I have no interest in what they do next or who they fight next..

Uh, Diaz devastated Penn in his first fight in the UFC, he didn't lose that one..... Then he lost a close fight (that some believe Diaz won) to Condit. And since GSP wants to fight Diaz, if GSP is facing Silva next, then having Hendricks (the number one contender) fight Diaz (a top ten fighter who the champ wants to fight) would be perfect to determine which one would face GSP after the Silva superfight.

GSP should fight Hendricks next.
If this doesn't happen, I don't know who Hendricks should fight next, maybe BJ/McDonald winner.
Kampmann vs Condit II is a fight I'd like to see. If not, Condit vs Koscheck and Kampmann vs either Rory/BJ loser or Nick Diaz.
Well, Condit vs McDonald II would be great, too. Many options !

Wow, John Maguire is going back up to 185???? Every time I've seen him fight in the UFC I have always thought "This guy would look/do much better at 155"
I imagine he'll lost his next fight if it is at 185 and be cut
