i personally want see Johny Hendricks go at it with Siyar Bahadurzada. It's ganna be a decent scrap all around

I'd like to see Paul Harris against maybe the winner of Dollaway-Mayhem, maybe against Leben if Palhares wants to wait until Leben's suspension is over (in November I believe)?

The loser of Franklin-Le would be a solid fight to watch I think as well. It's probably going to end up being Cung who loses, and it could be another striker-vs-grappler match up.

Palhares and Mayhem have trained together in the past. I remember seeing a youtube clip of Palhares tapping mayhem with an armbar. I do like that matchup though. A lot changes when punches are involved.

Meh. Hendricks would rail him. Siyar is a bloated can at this point. The KO over Paulo was sick, but against anyone technically sound/not half way retarded, Siyar will struggle. Hendricks via real easy UD. Siyar vs E.Silva at this point.

not sure i see your logic. I mean, if you've watched his past fights you'll know that that power isnt some fluke and he knows how to use it. I absolutely want to see him and silva but i dont see how you have hendricks so easy when all he has is an uppercut and a straight, when silva has, to date, everything that siyar does.

Diaz is fighting for the title after Bendo/Edgar 2

Shields is moving back to MW and even if he stayed at WW a fight with Hendricks wouldn't make much sense, Hendricks is supposed to get a title shot with his win.

Belcher should fight the loser of Bisping/Boetsch or the loser of Lombard/Stann. Belcher is ready for top ten, not top five.

Silva is a nobody in the WW division and wants none of Siyar. Siyar/Hendricks would be a great fight. I wanna see Hendricks vs Ellenberger.

I think Siyar/Silva would actually be a good fight, both guys being sick strikers and all.

On a side note I feel like Ellenberger would beat most of the top WW prospects given the chance, dude is a monster. Only problem he's had in the past has been his cardio but it's made improvements, and that hasn't even really mattered much because he just runs through people and finishes them. I think the only people who could beat (a fully prepared/had a full training camp) Ellenberger would be GSP and maybe Rory.

yep, Diaz is fighting for the title. if he wasn't waiting, those are the matches I'd like to see. Hendricks is in the same position. As for Belcher, he's ready for whatever I say he's ready for. (including another hideous tattoo.) PS: skip my posts, they are irrevelant.

Any of these names would be a good fight but I'd like to see Belcher vs Bisping.

Nate vs Pettis needs to happen. If it doesn't they're both gonna be sidelined indefinitely with nobody to fight. That would provide a legit number one contender

Belcher obviously needs to step up and take the winner of Boetch and Bisping or even greet Shields at 185

Miller needs to get a few more W's under his belt and get some confidence back. He took a nasty ass whoopin from Bendo and lost to Nate pretty badly so fighting a few jabronies wouldn't hurt. Or fight the winner of Maynard and Guida

they are not going to match belcher up with someone coming off a loss, especially losers from fights that are several months away.

i think they will match him up with rony markes or wait and give him the winner of belfort/silva. every other MW contender is booked right now and wont be fighting till july or later. after sitting out so long i doubt belcher wants to sit on the sidelines until the end of the year.
