Should Randy drop to 205?

My gut tells me no. I think he is still a contender and conpetitive at 225.

He signed a new 6 fight deal so he can go back and forth with 205 and Heavyweight, there are some good fights for him in either class.. He only fights at around 220 at Heavyweight, which is likely around what he weighs when he starts to cut the weight to make 205. So going back and forth should be no problem. I'd like to see him fight Shogun, Rampage, maybe even a rematch with Tito..

He's thinking about it..

retire

[dallaskd]

Thats not happening. I say he drops..

I used to be in favor of Randy retiring because I dont want to see an old man get beat up...but he is just phenomenal and I wont have to worry about that any time soon regardless of the weight class.

Yes...lots of fights for him there...

Randy vs Wanderlei
Randy vs Little Nog
Randy vs Franklin
Randy vs Rampage
Randy vs Rashad
Randy vs Shogun

I doubt if he'd get a shot at Machida unless he gets knocked off. And Anderson Silva would Forrest him...

He should definitely drop to 205. The heavyweights are just too big for him these days. Personally I'd like to see the UFC establish a new cruiserweight limit at around 225-230. Nog beat him up, but it was still one of the greatest fights I've ever seen.
