    Only current, active fighters in any organisation and only matchups that haven't yet already been made (e.g. Cormier v Jones 2 wouldn't count as this is scheduled for April, nor would GSP v anyone as GSP is inactive/retired).

    Some of mine:

    Justin Scoggins v Louis Smolka
    Aljamain Stering v Thomas Almeida
    Jose Aldo v Max Holloway

    :eek::pac:

    I got no problem with Lukker. He's defintely not alone on this board for making BS statements(opinions) with absolutely nothing to back it up or justify it with. It would be boring if we all had the same opinion but at the very least have some reasoning behind your opinion is all I ask :)

    On that note....Mellor WTFs your reasoning for that post eh eh? :p


    btw - I don't think my armchair would be allowed in the octagon :D

    I want people who'll post and build a fight. THis is my first fight card as promoter and I want everyone to Tune into TV3 on March 19th (paddy's weekend)


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,433 ✭✭✭✭El Guapo!

    Ah he's still here alright. Doesn't post as much as he used to but he's still here, don't worry!

    We don't want no yellow y-front night, this isn't your fight card, this is MY card. I own this game. This is my game. I bring in the BIG numbers etc etc etc


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,421 ✭✭✭weemcd


    Rory McDonald v Condit II
    Lawler v Nick Diaz II
    Lawler v Conor
    Jones v Rumble
    Ferguson v Khabib (already booked hope it goes through without injures)
    Ferguson v Barboza II (I'd watch that every week, was such a good scrap while it lasted)
    Barboza v Pettis (Striker's delight)
    Aldo v Holloway

    And my all time dream matchup:
    Prime Shogun v Prime Anderson

    The welterweight division is such a fascinating division these days and there's so many scenarios that could play out at the top tier.

    Woodley is still waiting for his shot. Wonderboy wants his. MacDonald is definitely still in the picture. Condit is also there but there's still a few doubts over his fighting career.

    I'd be happy to see any of these fights at 170.

    MacDonald vs Wonderboy

    Lawler vs Wonderboy

    Condit vs Lawler II

    Woodley vs Wonderboy (title eliminator)

    MacDonald vs Woodley II

    Some fascinating match ups in that division for sure.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,020 ✭✭✭Brussels Sprout


    Joanna Jędrzejczyk vs Mike Jackson


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 2,231 ✭✭✭Jim Bob Scratcher


    McGregor vs Khabib definitely


  • Registered Users Posts: 650 ✭✭✭csallmighty


    Rousey's comeback - see how she rebounds after her first loss.
    Jon Jones vs Cain/Werdum - or any top HW.
    +1 for Thompson vs MacDonald.
    +1 for Barboza vs Pettis.
    +1 for McGregor vs Diaz - mostly for the sh*t talk.
    McGregor vs Lawlor - unlikely but I think Conor would be mad enough to try it.
    Belfort vs Machida.
    Rockhold vs Silva.

    More welterweight shenanigans and it may never ever happen but I would pay all sorts of money to watch Ben Askren vs Robbie Lawler. That would be a great fight imo.

    For some reason I think Cro Cop vs Rothwell would be a fun fight to watch.


  • Registered Users Posts: 650 ✭✭✭csallmighty


    Faber vs Dillashaw

    Askren fights at middleweight now so there's even more of a chance of it not happening now, hopefully he comes to the ufc!

    Oh, I didn't realise that.
