Cote should get to fight Silva

I think Cote should get bumped up to the main event for the title fight. I bet he'd take it for sure. He stepped up once to fight Tito Ortiz on short notice. He was the runner up, its only fair.

No, what should happen is Lutter should have to forfeit and they should give someone else the shot like Swick or Marquardt...it just would suck for Silva to wait and for us to wait but Lutter should definitley have to sit.

True that! Besides the MMA fans, Cote is the def getting the shaft here. He worked his a$$ of to become a finalist then got beat by Lutter. Now Cote has to see Lutter's shot, which could have been his, being pi$$ed away like that. As a finalist who could have gotten that shot, I would be pi$$ed!

I mean that cote should get bumped up on THIS card, hes already on it, since hes the runner up, let him have shot, if not even for a title fight, just a way to stick it Lutter.

i think cote needs to get a win under his belt before we start talking about him fighting silva...

true dat, Cote got wrecked by lutter. leben got wrecked by silva. i dont know how cote compares to leben but they seem similar in that they like to bang, and silva would pretty much kill cote.

cote has a dark cloud over him, he's like joe riggs, he just cant catch a break but i dunno, i like scott smith too, if he loses again, cote is definately out the ufc..which sucks but no matter how good of a fighter you think you are, you need the results
You do in the UFC, anyway. In some ways its a shame that the UFC has this 'win at all costs' culture. It encourages horrible displays like Sylvia-Arloviski 3 and Svlvia-Monson. That's one area where I like Pride's style more than UFC's.

Are you kidding me, no way in hell should he get to fight Silva. The guy is 0-4 in the ufc, thats 4 straight losses and there is a possibility it will be 5 when he takes on scott smith. If anything he deserves to be kicked out, and i wouldn't be surprised if he got beat by Danny Abbadi. Cote is a bum.
