An interesting dynamic is under way in MMA with Mousasi unable to fight Rua or Machida, Fedor Emelianenko unable to fight Brock Lesnar, Shinya Aoki unable to fight BJ Penn and Jake Shields unable to fight Georges St. Pierre. It seems the divide of talent between the UFC and other organizations is creating a gap in top flight possible fights for fans to see. Let's hope this gets resolved quickly!

Evans gets by Silva in UFC Snoozefest
Rashad Evans executed an almost perfect game plan to get by striker Thiago Silva last night at UFC 108. It was a weak card for a pay per view but sets up a match up between Evans and Quinton Jackson in May. I found the fight lacking in excitement probably more due to the fact that they both lost to Lyoto Machida. After Machida's poor showing against Mauricio Rua the light heavyweight division is in a bit of disarray. Especially with Gegard Mousasi outside of the UFC and unable to fight any of the other top light heavyweights.
