Probabilities that CC is getting a UFC title shot
given the UFC HW division is tied up.

The offer that CC couldn't refuse...

Is it possible that CC gets an immediate title shot?

(I know its the wrong forum, but I would be shamed if I posted in there)

I think going 2-2 in the UFC with wins over Al-Turk and Eddie Sanchez definitely screams for title shot....

It seems most likely the winner of Couture/Nog will get the next title shot

Has this story been confirmed?

Something about Lorenzo flying into Zagreb with an "offer he can't refuse" smacks of a fake story.

He's not getting a title shot after defeating Al Turk. He probably wont get a title shot after his first win either. I actually think there is a good chance Mirko goes 0-3 if he signs this 3 fight deal with the UFC.

maybe or the winner of Carwin/Cain. Crocop has said he would like to face the winner of Randy/Nog. Imo there is no way Crocop is getting a title shot. There is only one thing any employee has a hard time refusing. It's called money.
This is what I think Crocops next 3 or 4 fights will be assuming he wins them. First fight verse Hardonk or Pat Barry, second fight winner of Nog/Couture, third fight winner of Mir/Lesnar vs Carwin/Cain. If he does win his first two and doesn't get a title shot in his third fight I'd expect to see him verse Kongo or Gonzaga.

A crocop winner of nog/couture on the same card vs mir/lesnar winner vs cain/carwin winner would be huge.

And you'll be able to showcase the champ, and the contender on the same card.

Book it UFC
