IMO, anything Healy can do, Jim can do much better, but this is still a helluva fight.
Curious as to where this puts dos Anjos, Khabib and Grant, as the lower half of the top ten/fifteen LWs is pretty open. Personally, I'd have rather seen Healy get a Bocek, Varner or Lauzon to start out his UFC career as I think Miller is going to guzzle him, but this should be a fun fight.
Still not really sure why someone as low on the LW depth chart as Thomson got matched up with Nate coming off a title fight(perhaps a bounceback), but some of these matchups at LW are kinda weird....
