You're right mate. It was said with humour. That said i think Bisping might get a title shot after his next two fights providing he comes through them ok. Dana seems to be taking very good care of him.

I think the winner of ortiz -evans (i am picking evans) will get a shot at the title. Its tough where chuck is concerned because there isn't anyone really who can give him a test in the division as a proper elimination fight for another title shot. He'll probably get fed lambert then maybe get a rematch with Rampage. I think there are lots of options for the 205 pounders.
As you say Houston is now in the mix so there is plenty for Dana to think about. If Rashad comes through tito though i think he should definitely get a shot. Also Bonnar is just coming back from his suspension and is lined up to fight Mike Nickels in UFC 73 (should be an easy win for Bonnar). Maybe Bonnar could be Bispings next opponent?

As for Rich Franklin coming up. Possibly. I do however think Okami is going to beat Rich so maybe for rich the only way is up.
