I think DW has said that if Bisping beats Belfort, then he'll get the next shot at Silva. But, given the way Silva beat Belfort last time, Belfort would't be given the title shot if he wins.

Yes, he did say that but I don't see Belfort beating Bisping. Especially in Brazil.

man, trinaldo is a horse. he was out worked by a veteran in his last fight... but his strength at 155 is gonna be a problem.

He has had like 17 UFC fights and has fought better competition. yea, thats kinda what i was trying to say, without saying all that. tibau is a monster too... he [trinaldo] was a bit in over his head with the competition at that point. wont be long before hes there though.

Damn, I didn't even realize Trinaldo was nearing his mid-30s. Not sure how that can help either, but you never know. But, anyone that does suplexes like that, I am a fan of.

alcantara looks like he got a solid chin. he ate that right hook like 5-6 times. still gave that round to prado, despite the late take down. kind of a quick stand up on that too.

Gotta love Prado's mustache. I'll give him that round solely on that.
I'm also getting sick of these guys calling him Al-Contra. Its AL-CAN-TARA.

That was PURE laziness by Prado. He could have gotten out of that if he scrambled more when it was first put on.
Great submission by Alcantara.

Not quite laughable, but kinda silly that he wasn't able to get out of that earlier.
