The guy has had TWO major knee operations and will not have fought in over a year. Seriously, put him on the undercard against a couple of japanese cans first. He's not going to get a title anytime soon in any case. i don’t understand why you would put Shogun in with a top contender right away.

He needs to let that knee be as close to 100% as it can get, then come back and fight someone. As a Shogun fan I don’t want him to rush back to soon.

Seriously, it's over, and those remarks are so worn out. You are better than that, lol. I think we all know what was going on with some guys over there, the same thing that is going on here, except they have to hide it better. I agree that I would rather see him out longer and heal up better, if that is the case. However, it is far from uncommon to have follow up surgeries after injuries like this. I think we are going to see more and more emphasis on leg kicks in the UFC, thanks to Jardine/Chuck and Forrest/Rampage, and that worries me for guys like Shogun. They better work on the takedowns and get the kicks neutralized. #6, thanks for the unique comment. Seriously, it’s over, and those remarks are so worn out. You are better than that, lol.

Shogun may just need to forget fighting for another year or so. I'd rather see him lose a few years than ruin his career.

He will say whatever it is people want to hear or whatever is good for the UFC, true or not. Multiple surgeries are never good. And ayear from last fight and still not training full time is NOT good news. All we Shogun fans can do is hope he gets back healthy and soon! Never beleive anythign that comes from White’s trap.
