Just for fun, list your favorite fighters, or ones you think will soon be title holders, or ones that will hold on to their current title.

Heavyweight - Fedor, Mir, Gonzaga
Light HW - Rampage, Machida, maybe Shogun
Middleweight - Anderson Silva
Welter - GSP.
Lightweight - BJ, Faber

just want some opinions. be free to post vids of fights you like also.

IMHO

Heavywieght: Lesnar isn't going anywhere.
Light HW: Evans is the top dog right now, but Shogun could give him a run for his money.
Middleweight: Is there any doubt about Anderson Silva?
Welterweight: Thiago Silva will be the next champ.
Lightweight: BJ is the man, but KenFlo is comin on strong (Faber is good but he is a 145er)

yeah i know he is 145, but i think he could give most a run, moving up. i think rampage might be able to take rashad, and lyoto is looking VERY good in the UFC lately..well...always..14-0.

Rampage and Evans would be an unreal fight. You're right about Machida, he's bad **

I just LOVE the way he fights..the way his stance is, how is just hops around and stuff. thats what wins it, DIFFERENT strikers like anderson and lyoto.

Totally agree with you, his striking is on another level. I was surprised the way he took care of Silva sat night, didn't see that coming. I really thought silva would put up a better fight than that.
