I really dont see how that is a losing situation for Zuffa. For the casual fan it will look like the minor league guy is trying to dethrone the champion, so he must be good and I must see some of this WEC. Plus the fact that I dont think Silva would lose to Sonnan, it gives your champion another win, effectively cleaning out the division and who you have in said division at that weight.
This should def. happen before a possible Silva weight change, after Okami, and Cote/Almeida winner IMO.
EDIT: Forgot to mention Sonnon would have to beat Filho for that to work, which I suspect he will do in June.
