Now! Alexander-Evans is a fight I want to see. I believe both Tito and Rashad can be paired with opponents that will make for better fights. I prefer seeing Tito against Hendo and Evans against Alexander. There's really no reason for a rematch between Evans and Ortiz. They tied. The decision was just. That is one of three possible outcomes in a fight. The judges did not mess up (like with Hamill-Bisping.) So, if the UFC believes the second fight will go like the first, why put the fans through this again? The fighters should not care. They will get paid all the same.
Obviously Evans is scared of Alexander because they guy has been knocking out people left and right. That's why he says he has nothing to gain against him. But in my books, Alexander should be higher in the rankings than Evans because he beat Jardine. So Rashad has a lot to gain there.
