Anyone know who's going to be next in line for a shot at Stevenson's belt? I'd like to see either Braga or Bennett go after it. Those would be pretty sweet fights.

He's supposed to fight June 12th. Bennett is scheduled for that card also. Braga looked good against that Cleveland kid. Could be some great fights. Crazy Horse is always exciting.

Crazy Horse Bennett is being looked at closely. Braga needs to get a few wins against guys with records. That kid he fought on the last card, it was his first fight and that kid did'nt have a chance with Braga on the ground in the first place. Braga's got a brown belt (i believe) and the kid he was fightin just got his blue (i know coz he was in our dorm). Anyways, Braga is good, just needs some higher classed opponents to beat on. IMO, Bennett is the only one in line. Don't be surprised to see him and Stevenson late Summer 04. And at that, I honestly don't think Bennett could catch a win over Stevenson. Stevenson has proved so much as an athlete, especially within the last year. If Bennett actually trained, he'd be hella lethal. I'd love to see this match up.

Bennett looks really sharp and quick in there. I was glad to see him knock that dumb **** Shad Smith out.

hahahaha. The stupidest thing that kid did was tatoo "TapOut" in red, white, n blue across his stomach.

Crazy Horse is a good fighter but I just don't think he'll be able to hang if the fight hits the ground.

I agree. That's why I think Stevenson would pull it off. He has a good enough chin to take Bennett's punches and the solid wrestling skills to take him down. Once it's there, I think he'll control him and earn a decision.

I'd like to see Stevenson fight a guy like Edwards or some other UFC vet to see how he stacks up.

Depending on how he does in his next fight, I think Stevenson should get the call from UFC.
