This would be a great fight. Both are coming off of losses and will be hungry. It's a similar fight to Jones vs. Gus. Cormier being the wrestler with striking similar to Jones vs. Gus. Neither has injuries, so it could be set up rather quickly and get one of them back in line for a title shot. They are arguably the #3 and #4 UFC LHWs right now. There's big money in a rematch with DC or Gus vs. Jones since both went to decisions and some would say that Gus beat Jones. Rumble was just better than Gus on their night, that would also be another great rematch.



Who wants to see this fight?
 
Gus vs OSP
DC vs Bader

or vice-versa

OSP is fighting manuwa I think.

DC and Gus will fight one of these three: Bader, Davis, and Glover.

No need to kill off a star right this second. LHW is too shallow for that and putting DC vs. Gus guarantees that the division will lose a star.

What a ridiculous thought process "No need to kill off a star right this second", so you don't want to see good competitive fights and guys earning their number contender spot? That my friend makes absolutely no sense and is the primary reason the UFC is stagnant right now.

They will likely have them both win a top 10 fight and then put them against eachother.
 
This would be a terrible fight. IF DC loses, he can't make it past father time. If Gus loses, he drops out of the picture. 205 is already boring.
 
No thanks. There is already a scarcity of viable challengers to the light heavyweight title is it is. I'd rather see one of them fight Rashad Evans and the other fight Ryan Bader or Ovince St. Preux or something like that.
 
Already discussed over and over again. DC wants the fight because a win would mean a rematch against Jones.

But I believe it's been confirmed that each fighter has seperate opponents for their next fights.
