    Good, he earned it.

    I think Cain should have to fight Stipe Mioic, and JDS should fight Overeem.

    Ehh i dunno 5 round fight definitely favors Bisping.

    JDS wont be back until December and Reem hasnt fought since March. Will be interesting to see what match ups they make with Cain, Overeem, Stipe and Rothwell. Plus fights like Mir/Duffee, Big Nog/Struve, Bigfoot/Palelei and Barnett/Nelson happening.

    I think JDS vs Rothwell and Stipe vs Overeem makes sense. Put Stipe/Reem on the same card as Werdum/Arlovski and wt inners can fight. Then JDS/Rothwell can get next. Just hoping the belt can get defended somewhat regularly, never seems to happen though as the champ usually just wants to sit back and keep that strap as long as possible.

    Cain's next opponent probably depends on when he wants to come back. Mir is an easy fight for Terminator Cain but if he beats Duffee i could see them making that fight. If Cain waits till December to come back then maybe he does it against Barnett/Nelson winner.

    Anyways Melendez is replacing Bobby Green and fighting Iaquinta.

    Ya thats what happens when you switch an event from Brazil to Florida with a month left until it happens.

    Was really looking forward to Story/Silva and Krylov vs Pezao.

    Ya its a cool idea, fights could end up pretty boring though.

    Due to the fact that Newton has already beaten King Mo twice you would have to assume Davis/Newton and King Mo/Vassell are the fights.

    Looking at next months UFC schedule, in a span of 8 days we get 4 fight cards. Talk about over-saturation.

    UFC 189 - July 11th
    The Ultimate Fighter: Finale - July 12th
    UFC Fight Night: Mir vs. Duffee - July 15th
    UFC Fight Night: Bisping vs. Leites - July 18th
