Mike: Oh, okay. Well it's just that me and a whole bunch of other people who thought we knew what we were talking about totally thought you were going to have an answer for Brock Lesnar but aside from a couple well placed strikes he basically won all 8+ minutes. So aside from the possibility of Nog beating Mir and us getting to see pretty much the only fight left that is desirable in that division I don't see many options for you.

Randy: Yeah, well first of all if that ogre hadn't gotten away with holding onto the cage I would have taken him down and pounded him until he got frustrated and gave up a submission. But anyways I don't want to go to Light Heavyweight because there is nothing there that intrigues me. I want to beat the winner of Mir vs. Nog and hopefully get another shot at Brock.

Mike: Wow, Randy you are so defensive, this is NOT how you come off usually. Anyways, I am sorry but there is nothing intriguing about you fighting Mir and I hate to say it but you will not beat Brock if you fight him again. I love ya man and we have grown pretty close in the last minute or so but it ain't happening. Your best shot was against the most inexperienced Lesnar available and that guy just beat you.

Randy: Well fine then I am just going to resign again and wait till I am 47 and this contract expires so I can fight Fedor.

Mike: NO, NO, NO... OK let's take a step back here. I cannot get over how differently you are acting, you almost sound like the voice of the press being portrayed as Randy Couture in some stupid fantasy. Please do not go give away what little time you have left to a dying cause. You need to shed your inner Chicago Cub fan because there is nothing to believe about that possibility ever happening. Look, if that is the only other option then do whatever you want in the UFC. Let Dana try to double down by using you to prop up Brock's next potential candidate after the Mir vs. Nog fight. I would prefer you go to LHW where I know you can dominate and leave the way you were supposed to leave the HW division but ultimately I will be happier seeing you get beat two more times than I would reading about how you punked Dana with a typo you found in your contract.

Kevin-While I am not as adept at carrying on a conversation with myself as Double M clearly is, I happen to agree that Randy’s best option is a return to the LHW division. If a title is his goal, that’s his only chance at this time. Actually he has said that he doesn’t fight for titles, rather he fights because he likes to fight and appreciates the challenges endured in the cage. If that is really the truth, then perhaps Couture could just attempt as many big fights as possible. A fourth match-up with Chuck Liddell is always an option that the fans will pay for. If “The Hammer” gets past “Shogun”, perhaps those two wrestling dinosaurs could fight for a newly created T-Rex Masters of the Octagon Title. Okay, cue the DREAM sequence…maybe Dana White will allow Randy to fight Fedor since he does not currently hold a UFC title and a Randy victory could wrestle the WAMMA title away from Affliction and then blow it up in the Las Vegas desert. Personally I don’t think it’s in Randy’s best legacy interest to subject himself to Fedor, but if the fight happened I’d pay to see it.
