Agree with your thoughts on the 4 fighters as well. Evans is fighting on an upcoming ShoXC card at 140lbs., should be interesting to see how he does with them. Terrell would be a decent addition to the EliteXC middleweight division, he could be an excellent addition if he can ever manage to stay healthy.

Franca-Great guy who made a mistake and owned it. The result? Double the suspension of guys that cheated and lied about it. Great job CSAC! I expect him back in the UFC, but it wouldn't bother me if EXC or someone came in and got him PAID! He is a family guy who supports his family through mma and this was a devastating blow to him financially and career wise. I'm not saying he didn't deserve the punishment, but his should have been 6 months also, or Baroni and Sherk should have gotten 12 months as well. Evans-The UFC LW is loaded with good fighters. I was a little surprised to see Evans let go, but I think he can be a solid performer for another promotion. Veres-Just to many quality lws in the UFC. Terrell--Man, get healthy, I want to see him freakin' get it going. I expect him to end up with EXC. Jeremy, scroll down the home page a bit and there is a story detailing Franca’s situation.

Terrell, what are you going to do with him, he never fights, so nothing really crazy there besides the fact he wanted more money. Franca is a bit of a surprise since he is on suspension right now. He's a pretty good fighter in the lightweight division of the UFC, I wonder what's up with him. Not a big surprise with Veres and Evans at all.
