Ugh, I hate it, but I agree w/ you here. I just don't get the hype w/ Davis. And as much as I don't like Rashad, he's been a proven winner.

OK, so Sonnen v Munoz set for this card

Depends. I think Phil Davis can win this, but Rashad looked amazing at 133, albeit it was against Tito.
Sonnen-Munoz will probably look like Okami-Munoz, but I hope Munoz knocks his head off into Dana's lap.
It would be interesting if Anderson was there again and Sonnen won.

With it being on Fox, I wonder if Sonnen will go ape**** crazy again after he wins.

It would be a damn shame if

1. Rashad lost
2. Sonnen lost

There's no way I want to see Munoz v Anderson instead of Sonnen v Anderson

There's no way I want to see anyone but Rashad get the next crack at Jon Jones

I will bet my house that if Sonnen wins, he will have a 30 min monologue about Anderson Silva. Its a can't lose situation for Dana. If Munoz wins, its probably by KO and now he has a new middleweight contender with a string of KOs who KO'd a guy on national TV. If Sonnen wins, it may be a boring fight but his post fight speech will be classic and introduce the rest of the world to Sonnen.

Agreed.
I still feel terrible for Rashad. I don't like him, but he just keeps getting screwed it seems. I am hoping for another Davis sub though :/

I wonder who Bisping will fight on this card. He said it wasn't anybody he has faced before so this rules out Hendo and W. Silva.

Maia is the only guy that is ranked ahead or around him that he hasn't faced (and doesn't have a fight lined up). While Stann lost his last fight, I think he is a bigger name opponent and his military background is something that should appeal to Fox.

I think Stann is the one, even if he is coming off a loss. Stann would be a good name to market on there.
