Haha, won't happen but I'd love to see Chuck knock someone the f*ck out one last time, announce his retirement and then get a standing ovation as he walks out. Alexander and Brian Stann are the only two LHW's I can think of off the top of my head that would stand up, lose the fight and aren't/haven't been tied into any other fights.

He underwent a heavy back surgery operation and in recovering from that has been negotiating with different org's, and is favoured to sign with Strikeforce. @ biggmoney21: Tito is still going to fight but hasn’t since he lost to Machida in the UFC.

That has to be the reason the UFC dumped him, that is a lot of money. Jesus, I just checked how much Tito made on the lackluster performance against Machida. 210k for the loss.

This looks like it will be a really good card. Also I wish we would see more HW and LHW fights, it seems we've kind of gotten away from them in the past few years. Cards are stacked 170 and 155, decent amount of 185 and then a 205 and up here and there. Just my opinion though...
