Chael Sonnen. Anderson Silva. Jon Jones.

The three biggest newsmakers of this past weekend’s UFC 136 event and

promotion from making big news with several massive announcements,
including an unexpected shuffling of UFC 137′s blockbuster lineup.

marketing move. But South Carolina’s Rob Yaeger believes the move was necessary and an example of why Diaz isn’t ready
to be a UFC champion.
