Rob_Lazarus Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 What happened to Vitor? He was first in line, now he's third? He will come back from injury at some point. How about Vitor vs. Sonnen first? Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_bear413 Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 I like seeing interim fights. It really builds up the title fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Lazarus Posted March 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 Vitor vs Sonnen has to happen. Would Sonnen L&P? Or would Vitor be able to get the T(KO)? I like seeing interim fights. It really builds up the title fight. I don't think it would be an interim fight unless Silva gets injured, but it would be an interesting five rounder.

scotty1875 Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 I just love listening to Chael whoever he's fighting, he's one of only a handful of american fighters who actually has a bit of intelligence AND a sense of humour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uaquin Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 I thought Vitor was out for a long time. They are talking Vitor might be out till near the end of the year. So if that's the case, I would assume Sonnen will get the next shot based on his win over Nate and he's on a 3 fight win streak, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bklaus50 Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 Sonnen is guranteed a title shot after his win against Marquardt.....fighting vitor would be dumb risking his shot, Sonnen has next shot would have had it this up coming time but wasnt in any shape to fight after his fight with nate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeaceBro Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 When Vitor gets back he'll get his shot. Sonnen will have fought for the already and Belfort will probably get a tune up match to see where he's at. I think AS is gonna fight a couple times before Vitor steps back in the ring with.

p4pbest86 Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 What happened to Vitor? He was first in line' date=' now he's third? He will come back from injury at some point. How about Vitor vs. Sonnen first? Thoughts?[/quote'] If you watched the Marquart Sonnen fight Dana said that the winner would be number one contender, however Sonnen was not cleared to fight again soon enough for this next fight which is one reason the fight went to maia, yes belfort will come back however Sonnen earned his shot!
