Fightline.com: The lightweight division is stacked with talent. Who are the best young fighters in your weight class. Who are guys you think could be future champions?

Gamburyan: Probably Lauzon. I'm not gonna say I got lucky. I fought my game. He's a smart guy. He's talented. Some people say, 'Manny, you beat the shit out of Lauzon and he's fighting in the main event.' It doesn't matter though because the guy deserves to be there. He knocked out a freaking former UFC champion so you got to give him credit. The UFC told me to fight Jeff Cox so I'll fight Jeff Cox. If they tell me to fight Roger Huerta I'll fight Huerta

Fightline.com: Who do you want next?

Gamburyan: The winner of [Kurt] Pellegrino and [Nate] Diaz; If I win my fight.

Fightline.com: Who wins that fight - Pellegrino and Diaz?

Gamburyan: You know what? That's gonna be a hard fight. It wont be easy because Diaz pushes the pace. You gotta be ready for him. It's gonna be a tough one.
