UFC fighters vs Strikeforce Fighters.

caleb_forrest_g · 01-14-2013, 02:28 AM

Now that Strikeforce is dead, there is a lot of good fighters from strikeforce. What are some fights that you would like to see out of the gate. Ill make a short list of first.

This is who MMAWEEKLY says would be good fights

Daniel Cormier vs Frank Mir
Gilbery Melendez vs Gray Maynard
Luke Rockhold vs Consta Philippou
Tarec Saffidine vs Martin Kampmann
Nate Marquardt vs Mike Pierce
Jacare vs Jake Shields
Josh Barnett vs Roy Nelson
Gegard Moussasi vs Glover Teixeira (if he beats rampage)
Pat Healy vs Jim Miller
------------------------------------------------------------------
i agree with most, you could probly give Nate a better fight, but pierce is no joke.

wat would be some good fights that you would enjoy?
i know i left our some great fighters, like Noons, Kennedy, etc

Gegard VS Glover ???

wow, havn't tought about that one !!!

I wasn't sure I would be making a certain thread, but right now I think he deserves it...

Cormier vs Mir would be a one sided beat down. As much as I like Cormier, the fact that he won't fight Cain makes me lose interest a little.

Melendez has a ton of good fights ahead of him, including Maynard.

Jacare and Mousasi both have a lot of interesting matchups at MW. Mousasi is an idiot if he fights at LHW.

Barnett will probably get cut. The UFC could kind of hide him in Strikeforce, no way they let him on a UFC card ever again.

^^I like this list a little better.

Teixeira v Gustafsson is the fight to make, to guys with hands and my man Glover (after a win) will be right there with The Swede.

Rockhold v Weidman is something that makes perfect to me

I'd love to see Gilbert fight Varner.

Varner v Miller.
