Lol yes. Exactly what I was thinking.
Anyway, this final round is going to be great. I can't wait for Hansen/Aoki.

Matches
First, after Filhos last fight its no wonder he wasn't integrated into the UFC and that he is fighting at a catchweight bout instead of a middleweight bout. Second, this next welterweight match should put Sakurai back where he should be, among the best in the world. Also, yeah its too bad Aoki can't face Hansen right away and unite the DREAM and WAMMA lightweight titles.

I'd love to see another Aoki/Hansen fight, see if Aoki can avoid those shots that he took that last time when Hansen clobbered him on the ground and won the belt. Manhoef could maul all over Filho but we know Manhoef's been subbed a time or two and Filho knows something about armbars... it's going to be very interesting.

Aoki in Strikeforce
I'd love to see Aoki face off against the unified Strikeforce champion in time and also face off against Eddie Alverez to unite the WAMMA and Bellator lightweight titles. That's the nice thing about WAMMA titles, they can be united with all other titles except UFC for obvious reasons.

I only heard of Fihlo for his two fights vs. Chael Sonnen and he was proclaimed the second coming-contender vs. Anderson Silva, and then he fell apart...and looked like shite in both of the matches.
Then he was in rehab and had steriod allegations??? Is this all true?
