Plus we got Cazares fighting early this week against Vasquez at 115, should he lose he may return to 112.

My 105 pool looks pretty thin so I would like to propose that the winner of the upcoming fight between Yasutaka Kuroki & Junichiro Kaneda gets awarded a place in the 105 pool.

Also am I correct in assuming that if a fighter in the pool loses he is removed? Or only if they lose to an unranked fighter?

We haven't nailed down losses in the pool. maybe we could do the following
1. if there is a vacant spot in the ranks and someone in the pool loses, whomever they lose to takes the vacant spot.
2. if there is no vacant spot the winner takes over the pool spot.
3. The original pool member will be dropped from the pool

A committee vote can override this.
