Jeremy Stephens is fresh off arguably the biggest win of his career against Barao. Mendes has been on a bit of a slide recently with ko losses to Mcgregor and Edgar. Who would want to see these two get matched up?
100% chance of a finish in that fight IMO.
 
Good fight. As long as Mendes doesn't try to brawl, even though a take down isn't guaranteed against Stevens.
 
I've said this before.

Mendes friends, family, and whoever cares about him needs to sit him down and convince him to take atleast a year off and face a pillow fisted gimmie fight with a grappling artist when he returns.

2 back to back Ko loses and the aldo fight.
 
I'm not sure Mendes wants to return yet, but this is a good fght for Stephens. I would watch.
 
Mendes via meuvement. I don't think his chin is completely done. He just jumped in way too soon vs Edgar.
 
No. Let him heal up and give him a scrub to let him get back on his feet. When I read this thread.
raw
 
i think chad needs someone coming off a loss

Mendes is taking a break, he is getting Married and doesn't want to fight before or right after that. I don't know how long though.
 
I'd rather see him face the loser of a fight like Ortega v Guida. He'll be less likely to get knocked the fuck out again.
 
Super fight rematch with McKenzie at 165.

Exactly. Aldo fight and 2 KOs after. Fighting Jeremy Stephens is a bad idea.
 
War with Aldo, monster TKO with McTapsTwice and a clear 'my chin is damaged' flash KO from Edgar.

The last thing Chad needs to do is rush back into a big fight with a hitter.

He should take an extended break and come back at his own pace to rebuild. If you lose three times in a row against top 5 competition, you should be fighting top 15-10 in your next bout.
 
Mendes got KO'd back to back.

The dude needs some time.
