Stevenson if he beats Pellegrino. If not, then the winner of Thomas/Fisher.

Gomi would be great but is unlikely to happen. Someone like Aoki should be built up with a fight or two first because no one will know who he is and he doesn't have the pride belt to use to hype him

Jo Daddy or Kenflo are the two who've earned it. They've ridden herd in the division for the longest out of the UFC guys.

DARKHORSE: Huerta, he's electrifying, unbeaten and that cover of SI probably garnered him a lot of Non-fanbase fans.

Aurelio has a lucky win over Gomi who as we all know chooses not to show up to half of his fights.

However I SELDOM find myself agreeing with Joel Silva so who knows what they'll do. He'll probably bring back Anthony Torres for an easy win-cum fake Arlovskian Dynasty for B.J.

And judging by this year, Anthony Torres would probably pull an upset.

Huerta hasnt fought anyone of significance to get a title shot against BJ. He's at least gotta fight someone of the status of Stevenson, Thomas, Florian or Fisher to get a shot.

It;s gotta be either the winner of the Thomas/Fisher fight or Joe Stevenson if he gets past Pellegrino in convincing fashion.

If this were to actually happen, why not just put BJ in the GP. He shouldn't get a free pass. Of course this won't happen anyway, so oh well.

Aurelio's win was not lucky dude. He took him down and planted that Arm triangle with ease. Gomi's weakness has always been his submission defense. Plus, if it was luck, their second fight would not have been so close. Styles make fights and Aurelio matches up really well with Gomi.
