Alright, so we have Robbie Lawler as our champion. Johny Hendricks as a no. 1 Contender. The loser of the next fight (face it, Dana will not rest until they fight again, Rory be damned)
Rory MacDonald, Hector Lombard and Kelvin Gastelum are the only active fighters in the top ten who have not lost a fight in the last year. Rory has wins over Woodley, Maia and Saffeidine. Lawler beat Matt Brown and Jake Ellenburger.
Hector and Rory are fighting now, eliminating one of them as a title contender. Best case scenario would have been let Rory fight and let Hector get another fight and take on whoever is champ after Rory's fight.
Kelvin Gastelum is (or probabaly should be) the underdog in his fight against Woodley. If he loses, Woodley still has some work to do before he's back in contention.
So unless Gastelum beats Woodley, we have the champ vs. Hendricks, then winner of Rory/Hector and then that's about it for contenders for a while.
Congrats UFC, you've destroyed the welterweight division. You might want to look into signing Ben Askren...
