im curious about the hendo jones fight but at the same time i dont want to see dan destroyed or laying there like machida so i think he has got to make it a dogfight and get it done in the first few minutes... if jones sets the pace it will get ugly

Yeah same feeling here. Like Cruz said though, it's not the real belt, but only the #1 Contender's belt. They definitely waited longer for GSP before putting in an interim title.
I haven't really seen Renan Barao fight, but I would love to see Faber get his azz kicked. I think Cruz vs Faber was good for the new season of TUF, which was probably the main motivation for that fight in the first place.
Hendo's only chance of beating Jones is to catch him with a big punch early. I think Jones will dictate the pace of the fight with his reach and finish Hendo within the first 3 rounds.
