Mighty Mouse over CCC in the rubber match. Bader/Tito 2 would likely end with Bader smashing Ortiz.

Give that handsome Dagi his title shot

Favorite active fighter in the UFC, and has been for a good while. Would like to see him get his shot.

I had been lurking the boards for a few years earlier too believe it or not. It’s the one message board that I still check daily. When I first started reading/posting, I would watch PPVs on my friend’s black box in his basement. The first event I watched live on PPV was UFC 4, and the first...

You really think Stipe is the one pulling the strings? Stipe is by far and away the most winnable fight left Jones at HW that the UFC can even pretend to market at this point. They don’t want to risk the chance of him losing his belt to someone like Aspinall. Jones will Pico-pulse his way to...

Things that are real: 1. Gravity 2. Josh Emmett’s power

Walker is the perennially dangerous gatekeeper, much akin to Michael Johnson. He’s the guy that you should beat, but always poses a threat to anyone in the top ten. Uncle Dana is praying for a hiccup so he can send the beard to the PFL. Magomed is disliked by Dana and even more so by the fans...

Sandhagen/Font has potential to be an outstanding fight.

Instead of waiting for Jiri, we should just have Magomed fight Hill in the meantime. He’s healthy and ready to go, and by Jan’s own account should be the champion currently. He’s got nothing lined up.

Hide nearly killed him in their fight, ending Bentt's career as a result.

Bentt was born in England, but he was an American and an absolutely incredible amateur boxer. While the Morison fight was a monumental upset, his body of work as an amateur makes the upset less shocking in hindsight. He amassed a record 148-8 before turning pro, dropping competitive fights to...

Houston Alexander and Andrei Arlovski immediately come to mind. You could make the argument for some other guys like Pat Barry, James Irvin, and Melvin Manhoef for sure.

As a coach, I couldn’t count how many times this scenario plays out. Countless guys come in, insists on sparring, and get bent out of shape when I say no. Guys don’t tell me when they’re ready to spar, I tell them when they’re ready to spar. Say what you want about the coach, but when you asked...

I always felt like that loss and his loss to Frye were Shamrock’s best moments of his career honestly.

The fight to make for Paddy is Tony Ferguson. Absolute no-brainer. Tony is a corpse with a name and someone that Paddy would likely beat. From a company perspective, every other fight out there is higher risk and lower reward.

Anyone have lines on this fight? My book doesn’t have anything.

Here’s one that gets forgotten with time: Tank-Cabbage 2. Their first fight (which is also the first live event I ever attended) ended somewhat controversially. The up and coming Cabbage repeatedly beat Tank to the punch (and knee), opening a deep fight-ending gash. Cabbage went on to...

Pride didn’t allow elbows at all, grounded or otherwise. It’s also been mentioned numerous times in this thread already.

And, unlike Igor, actually competed in the UFC

I'm a big Jiri fan, but Ankalaev is the man to beat at 205. He's the next champion of the class for sure.
