I've never seen this guys fight, so I'm not going to comment if he is any good or not, but I really like that at least they are bringing in some new faces and giving them a shot, even though they wouldn't be doing him any favors putting him in with Cain. Wain v Carwin at 89 dos Santos v Werdum at 90 Hendricks v Gonzaga at 91 I am surprised that they are bringing these guys in and putting them against top guys, and not letting them get their feet wet against guys like McCully, Sanchez, Hardonki, Wellish or even Mark Coleman that UFC has under contract.

I wasn't all too fond of heavyweight fights, as of recently, but with couture returning, lesnar becoming a beast, and all these new fighters, i feel as though the division may be reborn. the UFC must have some longterm goal for the heavyweight division, and i’m liking it. they are bringing in a lot of new heavyweights recently.
