Tonight the UFC President was in Ireland accepting an award at Trinity College in Dublin. He even told everyone on Twitter that he was buying the pints after the ceremony:

On my way to Ireland!!! Land minday and then Trinity College Dublin on Tues. I'm buying PINTS after the ceremony.

read official Twitter...

According to member of the Twitter-verse who lives in Ireland and was bought a pint by Dana White, the President revealed two heavyweight matchups in the works. The first a heavyweight title fight between Cain Velasquez and challenger Antonio Silva who previously lost to the champion. And the second being two high profile heavyweights coming off loses, Junior Dos Santos and Alistair Overeem.

A Bigfoot Silva rematch is incredibly underwhelming. Just pluck Werdum out of the TUF match vs. Big Nog and put him in there already....

That would be an awesome card and a perfect setup for the next HW title fight.

AO and JDS sounds great. I just don't see Big Foot being athletic enough to avoid Cains takedown leading to a rerun match up, but may be wrong and end up FOTN who knows.

After watching AO get knocked the fuck out by Big Foot; i have little doubt in my mind that JDS destroys him within 2 rounds.

1 win and a title fight? Not even a dominant win, he was losing that fight clearly going into the 3rd

Seriously

With everything that has gone on at HW, it's a shame Werdum is tied up for so long

Do you mean 2 highlight knockouts and then a title fight? One being the KOTN against the guy who was suppose to be getting the next title shot.

The UFC should wait and see what happens in the Struve/Hunt fight.

My bad, forgot Travis Browne but that still only makes him 2-2 in his last 4 and he just recently got dominated by DC and Cain

JDS beats Overeem and Bigfoot gets annihilated again.
