I wouldn't say BJ is at the downside of his career. He's just fighting really good competition.

BJ lost to Edgar and Nick Diaz, both those guys are champions. It just means he can't win a belt right now because the #1 guy in that division is better than him.

I think Koschek is possibly the #2 guy at 170, even though he's lost to GSP twice yet I still think we could see the best of him.

When you're the #1 guy in the division, you're consistently fighting the #1 contender. That's why consecutive title defences are a huge deal and guys like Silva, GSP and Jones will stick around for a long time.

I think it's so easy to jump on the hype train when someone wins or loses a couple fights, especially when a champ loses. Frankie lost the fight, but it was nothing like the beat down he got from Maynard. He'll bounce back and I think he could win.

In the Frankie v Hendo match, supposedly Frankie is the favourite, again according to the bookies.
