Rousimar gets a title fight right away.

Ha I know right!
It's just the worse possible matchup stylistically ever. I would give Carl loads of chances to catch a sub against a lot of good fighters, but if your not capable of knocking or pounding out Toquino then you're gonna be done on the mat.

How does Palhares get a Title Shot right away? He hasn't even had one fight since getting booted from the UFC for unsportsmanlike behavior. Wait, people know who he is, yes he deserves it.

palhares is essentially coming off a victory over pierce, and even though that didn't take place in WSOF i can't help but think that this fight will be better than Carl/Burkmann 2 or Carl/Fitch

Palhares did just beat Pierce quick, who is a ranked WW. Palhares is a talented fighter even if he doesn't have sportsmanship, but he is certainly a risky guy to have as a champion for any organization
