I think that is realistically too much of a jump to get this to happen, not to mention Fedor has no incentive to cut down to 205 to fight Silva.
I think Nogs is just too old to want any of Lesnar honestly, not that he would not be game, but he is slowing down. Coture has a great stand up, but with those meat-sized fists of Lesnar coming thats asking a lot of a 42 year old who was a great fighter but now more on the downslope.
It is sad to say that only the pathetic likes of somebody like Kimbo Slice can offer the sort of straight stand up duke-it-out type of beating that would be required.
Several of the TUF guys from the upcoming episode look like they may be gamers though, so you never can tell who is around the corner next.
Either way, you can gurantee that the UFC will keep Lesnar as busy as they can for the next 6 months to a year. They have a "champion" that polarizes fans...pro or con. What more could Dana want?
