Tito and Chuck are not on the list as they are fighting at UFC 66.

Do you think its time to let the TUF fighters have a stab at a title shot?

For main event bouts, I'd like to see Anderson Silva... possibly in a rematch against Franklin. I can't see any other MW out there giving him too many problems. The guy's a talent.

I've also (probably controversially) gone for Sylvia, as I'd like to see Brandon Vera get a shot at the HW title. The HW division really needs inspiring at the moment, and I reckon "The Truth" could be the man to do it.

On the process of elimination it should be Anderson Silva and Sean Sherk.
UFC65 - Timmy vs Monson + Hughes GSP
UFC66 - Tito Vs Liddell + Arlovski vs TBA

Should mean that the 2 guys who won the belts at 64 should defend at 67/68.

Rich needs more time before going after the title he did not look in that great shape if you look at the tanner fight he was ripped but did not look that big against silva

Rich was pretty stupid to fight Anderson after nearly a years rest. He should of done some easier bouts to get him back to normal. Anyways hopefully this should wake up Franklin and give us all a dream rematch in UFC 68.

I dont think he had a choice he had to defend against Silva but i think your right Vinnie about 68 / 69 would be a dream re-match with Rich fully fit even though he has a broken nose he can still train with his hands and do his cardio.

After what Swick said, Swick vs Silva sounds like a good UFC 67 fight. i would also like to see Sanchez take on Penn (once he heals)...

Think Sherk will definately be on the card. Probably to fight Spencer Fisher?
Could well be Silva/Swick but not sure they might give a shot to Marquart? (If He beats Leites)

But lets get Franklin back to his normal shape. As he will just mess-up again like last time.

I say a rematch in 12 months will suit Franklin.

Yes, I also agree with Vinnie. Franklin needs some more time to train. Of course he will have to wait because of his nose. I dont think Franklin should have took that kind of fight right away.

People underestimated Silva. I really like Franklin but I predicted the outcome. When you're up against someone like Silva, ringrust is the last thing you want and Franklins managers should have seen that.

That said, I hope people give Anderson the respect he deserves. I've met him several times and he's a really nice, humble guy who happens to be a awesome fighter.

As much as I'm looking forward to seeing Rich back in the Octagon...he won't be back in there till April of 2007 unless he gets doctor's clearance.  Anderson Silva should fight in UFC 67.  His TKO of Franklin opened a lot of eyes and what better way to follow up UFC 66.  There will be lot's options for a co-main event after UFC 65, but I would n't be surprised to see a Sherk defense at UFC 67, maybe against Melvin Guillard or as a long shot-Jens Pulver, tough to pick him though considering that he lost in his last UFC fight.  Guillard-Sherk would be a great fight.
