In a recent interview Randy Couture told CageReport.net the winner of his UFC 109 main event bout against Mark Coleman could be next in line for a shot at the light heavyweight title.

“From what I’ve been told the winner of this fight could be next in line for the title, though that’s could be next in line for the title, though that’s not something that is guaranteed so I really need to come in at my best and make a case for myself.” myself.”

what are your thoughts on this comment?

has randy picked up a pipe or something?? hes calling the shots now? i for one do not want to see either one of them fight for the 205 title, especially not coleman. randys last fight was terrible and coleman would get wasted by anyone of the top lhw’s

Personally I think the UFC wants Randy in a title shot picture as soon as possible, but the also know Coleman is not a credibe win to.grant a title shot.

The winner of the Rampage vs Rashad fight in May deserves to challenge the winner of Shogun vs Machida.

i definitly agree on both statements, i just feel that the ufc doesnt need randy in a title shot at lhw to sell ppv’s the division is completly stacked with younger and more skilled and exciting fighters. i would love to see the next fights work out like this no matter who holds the belt rampage vs. machida and rashad vs shogun

I agree with you but Dana just signed him to a 6 fight deal and he has 5 fights left there going to milk him like Dream and Pride milked Sakuraba until he can not longer walk and is fighting 1-1 guys

I think he means there fighting for the viagra world title against Sakuraba next

The loser of this fight officially needs to retire from the sport already
