I know it's a cynical thought but the UFC is a business when it comes down to it and they will always want to make as much money as possible from a ppv. I hope Danzig gets a chance to fight some top oppostion though. I think he could do some serious damage.
I think he has some charisma, they just need to promote him in the right way. He was one of the most interesting characters in the Ultimate Fighter series - he seems unusually articulate and intelligent - and the whole Vegan/buddhist tip he's on is quite interesting for someone who makes a living out of beating the shit out of people.

I'll shut up now, I'm starting to sounds worryingly like a fan-boy...
