Match Ups You Would Like To See 

Post#1 » by UN-Owen » Sat Dec 1, 2012 6:14 pm

Barnett vs Mir

Seems like an interesting bout between a pair of grizzled vets who have never faced each other


Shogun vs Evans

A big money fight for a pair of veterans who won't be challenging for a title at 205


Condit vs Kampmann

Would likely become an epic kickboxing match pushing the winner back into contention

I think we'd all like to see Bones vs Silva

Cain vs Cormier isn't one I'd considered but that could definitely headline a PPV. I like it

JDS VS Reem (Can't wait to see this one probably wont last long)

GSP VS Hendricks ( He'd actually give GSP a run for his money - unlike Diaz)

Bones VS Silva (Super fight FTW)

GSP VS Silva (@ 170 make the fight interesting)

Diaz VS Sonnen :P (more interested in the trash talking than anything else)

Yeah, I don't think I'm going to come up with anything great that hasn't been mentioned.

Just how high up on peoples' lists is the proposed GSP vs. Silva fight (the sudden silence re: this fight has been deafening)? Not very high for me, though I recognize the spectacle/event status of it should put it ahead of GSP vs. top WW contender A/B/C.

Bones vs Skyscraper would be the first heavyweight fight I'd like to see for Jon. It would be interesting to see his reach advantage negated.

On topic of GSP/Silva, reports are saying that Georges would demand a $50M payday :o

http://www.espn.co.uk/ufc/sport/story/181989.html

In other news, Hendricks is accusing GSP of ducking him.

I read that GSP already refuted that 50 million thing pretty thoroughly.

Not to mention, that's actually a ton less ridiculous than Anderson wanting half of the ufc or whatever to fight Bones. :)

Shogun fights at 205, not 185

I think Bisping would get beat up in that one

He could cut, he's got plenty of fat. There's a fair few guys in different divisions who I think could change weights listed up there.

It sill wouldn't end well for Bisping

Shogun is nearly impossible to knockout and Bisping doesn't have knockout power
