What's the weight difference between the two? Lol

I think both would make 205. DC for sure and I think AS is around 205 before cutting.

On #FS2 Dana White says he's working on a fight for DC - says he has two options right now - title and non-title bout - waiting to finalize

Probably not as much as you think. Anderson said he got up around 220 when he fought at LHW.

I honestly wouldn't mind a rematch with Gus as long as the title isn't on the line.

Silva would be a 3 round, catch weight non-title fight.

I have no idea what the title fight would be. I can't imagine they would give Bader another shot after getting buried by Rumble.

Could be Mousasi who already has a fight on the Prelim card but a lot of people think is really good, just no fans know him.

Gus is 15 hours by plane away and already missed his flight to Vegas. It isn't him.

It's a tough situation. Even at catchweight, who wants to fight the #1 LHW (who was #2 at HW before dropping down because his teammate was champ at the time) on such short notice?

Works both ways. DC has been training and preparing and obsessing for a VERY particular style of fighter. To have to switch and throw a gameplan completely out the window on extremely short notice, prepare for another fighter, and fight on maybe the biggest UFC stage of all time is tough.

Yeah but it'll probably end up being some scrub like Cummins or Latifi.
Unless they wheel OSP out again.

Can't see AS having a chance against DC. DC would ragdoll him and then pound him into submission. Hate to see the disparity in size determine the fight, but thats what will happen. AS may weigh 205, but we all know real weight and what these fighter weigh at weigh in are totally different. On fight night, DC will have probably 15 to 20 pounds on AS.

In all fairness, they should give DC some tomato can to fight. Get him his pay day. Let him beat up on some schmuck.

Give him a much bigger fight in a short amount of time.

Yeah it would end up that way even if Anderson was still juicing up.

DC will probably do just that and straight throw him around.

But its UFC. One punch or kick and blam

I'll fight him. If I can last 2 min I automatically win.
