The problem it would seem the UFC is facing is a gap in talent where the top of the class is so much better than whoever is #2 that the fights between the champ and the contender are boring. Silva is fighting Patrick Cote next who was beaten most recently by two fighters that Silva has KO'd. The UFC needs to go after the best talent left in free agency to challenge their Champs. The fact is people only will watch the champions if there is a chance for a loss. I applaud the UFC for making this fight as I believe the fans want to see it. But remember even in the best case scenario these 3 fighters can make 3 different fights and that is a very short-term fix for an on-going problem. Hopefully the UFC will get a large enough influx of talent to make these weight classes interesting again.
