I would dig that. BTW here is some stuff Uncle Dana just said:

quote:

---

White said the UFC offered the fight to Frankie Edgar and that Edgar turned it down, citing an injury. White said that ex-featherweight champion Jose Aldo also turned down the bout when offered.

"When we told Conor, he said, 'Come on! This [expletive] guy! Oh my God! He's pulling out?' " White said. "But when we went through the options, he said he'd fight any of them.

"I swear to God, he said, 'I'll fight anyone.' He just doesn't give a [expletive]. People talk about this strained relationship between us and Conor, and he has a different style than I've ever seen, but I have never seen anyone like Conor. The closest was Chuck Liddell, but we've never had one like Conor. You think he's not hurt? But when he says he's going to fight, he's going to fight no matter what."

quote:

---

All of these managers are out there jockeying and they say they want to fight Conor. You hear these guys screaming, 'Conor, Conor, Conor,' but then when it comes time to take a fight, they turn it down and they're hurt."

---

and also this which is just

quote:

---

White said the fight will be at 155 pounds but that he is not sure whether or not it will be for an interim championship.

Maybe Conor will get that 5th belt!
