Fight Anderson??? I would first like to see how he does against a top 10 or even a top 5 fighter before getting a shot at the best P4P fighter in the world...

as it stands, IMO, he hasn't earned a shot at the champ....

I agree with what almost everyone has said thus far. He's not even that accomplished as a fighter and he wants to leave? -1 brownie point!

As a fan of Le, I don't want to see him get his face mangled by Anderson. There goes his chance at acting, unless he wants to play the villain from there on out.

Like you said though, Cung is 36. He is smart for trying to make sure that he still has a way to make a lot of money after his fighting career is over.

I would rather see Le fight Frank one more time. I really don't know who else EXC or Strikeforce can throw at him. Maybe Le vs winner of Lawler/Smith II, that would be a good fight. If those were Le's last two fights in MMA before retiring for Hollywood, I wouldn't be mad at him.
