He's said both, I think the most recent was that he isn't leaving 170, but who knows? Say they can't do Penn-Diego for whatever reason, 170 title picture is locked up for another 5-6 months. Diego can't take a half year off. What should they do with him? I say Diego-Koscheck II.

I must have missed the anouncement for GSP vs. Hughes III in April. Is that a for sure card?

Ironic statement, given that it seems like being on TUF hurt Diego's legitimacy. People don't really want to give him credit due to that, IMO.

Is it Hughes vs. GSP- or Hughes going for the title if for some reason GSP has an aneurysm while he is destroying Serra?

Dana Said it was Hughes vs Gsp for the title in april in canada, pretty much saying serra has not chance at all, and yeah deigo has 6 wins in the ufc without loosing, its going to be the same with swick, he has 5-0 he has finished 4 and went to dec with one, and he has a fight coming up and its not againt franklin, and im sure he will win that as long as its not against someone like lindland or some shit, so he would be 6-0 5 finished , more impressive then deigo, and swick beat david he was the 1 contender just lost to franklin, and im sure swick wont get a shot after that because there is franklin so im sure swick is going to have to go 7-0 or 8-0 in the ufc before he gets that shot, so saying that deigo dont deserve a shot yet, i say throw him in there with penn, thats only because penn will beat him and i want to see deigo loose, Deigo cant knock him out, hes fought at lhw or hw and never got knocked out, penn fought machida sorry bout the spelling and it was a very good fight and he couldnt finish penn, deigo wotn be able to take penn down, wont be able to sub him, or knock him out and penn can do all that to deigo

From my understanding it is Hughes v. GSP III for the title, assuming GSP is still the title holder. I think everyone is just figuring GSP will still have the title. I'm pretty sure Hughes is being given a title shot, and it is just assumed GSP will be who he'll fight for it.

i heard in a recent interview with Dana that Hughes wanted time before the rematch

Yeah, I remeber a couple weeks ago people saying they couldn't wait for the beating Hughes was going to give to GSP.

deigo isnt on the same league as gsp, gsp is a better fighter , better at everything then deigo, matt hughes is better then deigo and look what happen, deigo would be stupid and try to stand like matt and get fucked up, and matt has plenty of time to train for this fight thats 5 months to train, matt said i believe after the fight he needed time to prepare before a rematch and 5 months is plenty enough time
