1. Eddie only wears red panties.

2. I say the winner fights Nate Diaz on the Conor vs Khabib undercard

3. Stop pushing Kevin Lee

4. I hope Poirer smashes Eddies face so hard he goes to Bellator

5. Only thing i'll disagree with Chael on is putting Kevin Lee in title discussion. Lee has a relatively recent loss to Tony Ferguson and missed weight for his last fight, the 2nd consecutive time he has had weight troubles, so yeah i think you do "pretend he doesn't exist" at least until he wins one more AND makes weight. Otherwise i agree with everything else Chael said. This has fight of the year written all over it, and i think the winner should fight Ferguson or Khabib/Conor loser, depending on who's avaliable first.

6. Start a 165 pound division and have a 8 person tournament for the belt.. Grand Prix style… Pick 8 best and let them go at it… i would watch that.. that help solve the problem and probably good pay per view numbers on tournament to see who comes out with the 165 belt!!!

7. This fight is guaranteed to be a super fight in my opinion, too close to call but I think Poirer will win.

8. “Some people deal with pressure well, Eddies one of those guys….” – Did he not crumble shading Conor ?

9. Winner will get knocked out by tony both are chinny and cannot take a very high volume

10. What I'd love to see happen is a big, badass tournament in that weight class. It'd never happen but how awesome would it be.
