if chris could make ww that would be awesome. i'd love to watch him bang with those guys. like i said befor though. it doesnt bother him to the point where he wouldn't fight anderson again. i think he would take the fight no question. he came back 2 months after that loss and ko'd jorge rivera.

if chris could learn to move his head he would be a tuff guy to beat. he is one of those guys that really needs to lose to bring him back to earth and make him train harder. look what happened on the show, he lost twice, which i think to loss to koscheck was lame but he did lose. and i think he lost because he thought he was the shit. then he got a chance to come back and got cut. so dana gives him a shot and he is 6 and 1. and his loss is against a guy that anialated rich franklin. so he lost to silva came right back and ko'd jorge santiago. he looked pretty good in that fight. im not saying he can beat rich, and a second fight with anderson could very possibly go the same way. but he would take the fight, and he would leave it all in the cage. i respect that. he talks alot, but he isn't afraid to get in there and bang it out.

I agree with you all when you say he is no where near a title shot, he has a lot more work to do to even contend with Franklin, Tanner, etc.

I doubt Leben will get a title anytime soon. thers still a possibilty of a RichSilva2, The TUF comebackfight (this'll be a quick one) and Swick and Marqardt are more likely to get a shot before Leben. I bet Leben's the last thing on Dana's mind right now when it comes to title shots. Mabye he should fight KOS again. I doubt Leben wouldnt want this fight though. He lost the first time and KOS has only gotten better since than Lebens not changed at all since TUF. His only hope is to move down to WW or go up to LHW.

i cant see him a lhw, but a ww with joe riggs (provided he figuresout what weight class he is going to fight in) could be interesting. and maybe even a fight with nick diaz

Leben needs to fight better fighters.. Swick (or however you spell his name) would be a good match for him, though, MS might get the title shot...
i'm not saying that i like leben, i don't like him at all.. but he's good for the sport..

Leben could fight Anderson again, but I definitely wouldn't pay $40 on pay-per-veiw. Maybe if they had it on TV like last time. That would be an ass whupping worth watching for free.
Right now I think Swick's in line for the title. I don't think he has a chance, but he could make it an exciting fight.

Exactly, Silva didnt destroy Leben much worse than he destroyed Rich, and I dont think anyone would argue that Rich is second best in that division. So theoretically Silva would beat down anyone in the division about like he did Leben. I still dont think he should get a title shot yet. I just dont think the fact he got KOed by Silva should matter. I think he should fight Swick next.
