I haven't seen any Melendez fight yet but seems like his name has been mentioned for trying to call out some UFC fighters. I would love to see him fight in the UFC someday.

He is one of the best and has beaten some great fighters. I know he will end up in the UFC and it is just a matter of time before the UFC absolves Strikeforce all together.

That would be great. Melendez vs Henderson or Nate Diaz or Frankie Edgar. Let's see if he got what it takes to become a champion in the UFC.
