The Winner of Almeida Vs Cote at UFC 86 gets the next title shot?


If you go onto the UFC 86: Jackson Vs Griffin official website the promo video says in the Highlights "Patrick the Predator Cote battles Ricardo Almeida for a title shot". I dont know if this is just hype for the event but its a strong statement on what the UFC thinks about Yushin Okami (22-4). Okami right now is on a two fight win streak but has won 14 of his last 16 fights and is 6-1 in the UFC, with his only loss coming to former UFC Middleweight Champion Rich Franklin. If this is true it would be insulting to Okami because he is the last man to hand Silva his last loss. Even though it was by a DQ (Illegal up kick)(See fight here),Okami was holding his own and had top position when the fight ended.
