If there is any truth to this rumor, then the UFC must be working out a GSP vs. BJ fight.

BJ’s camp says he is still training for a end of the year fight.

Really? Two of the top five UFC LW’s fighting isn’t interesting to you?

Stevenson was decisively beaten by BJ not too long ago. What happens to Florian and the title picture if he loses? Would a win earn Stevenson a title shot? Who would want to see him fight BJ again at this point? What does a Florian win do for him? It seems to me he’s already next in line for a title shot. I just don’t see the point. I’m sorry if I’m supposed to be interested, but I’m not.

I suppose the potential effects on the division aren’t necessarily exciting, but the fight itself ought to be in my opinion.

Neither of them have much to gain from this fight. UFC doesn’t have much to gain either. Why?

It’s not even regulated in Boston yet, that can’t be right.

But he finishes!! lol!
You know I’m being sarcastic, right?
I think his post fight interviews have been an attempt to make himself more marketable, though I don’t think it has worked to well.
Hopefully this is just a fight for him while BJ/GSP happens, and not him being skipped for a title shot.

Sorry guys, but I think this is far more interesting than BJ/Florian.
Dana stated that the Florian/Huerta winner would not necessarily get a title shot, though I think Kenny deserves it.
The UFC’s most intriguing LW fights do not include BJ. I just don’t see any of them at his level right now.
What will also be interesting, imo, will be to see who Huerta’s next opponent will be. I think it will show us what Dana really thinks of him and his place in the UFC.
