The UFC is really starting to run out of options at MW at this point. Henderson was the biggest threat to the belt (still may be if he comes back for a rematch). Nobody wants to see Franklin v. Silva 3. I guess Lutter vs. Silva 2 could be in the works, as could Marquardt v. Silva 2. I don't see any of those fights ending up any different than the previous encounters.

I guess eventually somebody will figure out the gameplan to beat Silva (it alwasy happens eventually) but right now he's cleaned out that division pretty handily.
i dont think any of those are real options. anderson and wanderlei are friends and i dont think theyd want to fight each other. i doubt the ufc would sign lindland, kang or fliho. the winner or franklin v lutter could be in line for a rematch. even though rich is my favourite fighter im not sure i want him to fight anderson again, but i dont want him to lose to lutter either. marquardt is a possibility but i dont think anyone wants to see that.
