John Dodson is out for a year after he hurt himself jumping on the bed. He is also grounded.

@Anik he was really good friends with Charles the Mask Lewis and apparently that is how he laughed when he found something really funny . so Dodson does it in Memory of him .

Now who is Demetrious Johnson supposed to fight? I'm assuming Zach Makovsky if he beats Formiga.

@gunn, I agree he kinda grows on you, but for me it's because he's so ******* talented I can't completely dislike the dude ... also, he's such a positive and great guy, I just can't keep up with him and he's always happy ... that irritates me, but I'll be the first to admit, it's because I'm ****** up, not because he's got something wrong with him.

Dodson is really the only fighter I can see beating DJ. Out of all the title fights, FlyW is my least favorite to watch for that reason. So I see why 174 did so bad.

@zarog, actually, I think Brad Pickett gets the shot if he gets past Uncle Creepy. Pickett holds a win over DJ and is probably more marketable at this point then Makovsky.

Plus Pickett's fight is before Makovsky's, so in theory, his turnaround to be ready for DJ would be sooner and the UFC need headlining fights ASAP. 

Makovsky is on the right track and is a former Bellator BW champion, so I'm sure he's option two if he gets past Formiga and Pickett either gets injured or loses to McCall.

@unbeknownst I can see that. Unfortunately, I don't think a Pickett/Johnson fight would be all that competitive any more.
