    Lamon Brewster?
    Luan Krasniqi?

    Good question. I also thought Kirk Johnson was about to make a comeback, as well. Last fight for him was over two years ago.

    I read some time back that Ibrag would fight on, but nothing other than that, since then.

    Lamon Brewster is/was a true warrior.

    He would've decapitated Samuel Peter. :happy

    I wonder about Ibragimov. My suspicion is that he may not come back, but that's based on nothing other than gut feeling.

    Jirov was rumored to be angling for a big Cruiserweight fight, but the reality is that he's shot. I'd hate to see him as cannon fodder for an up and comer.

    Brewster probably shouldn't be fighting anymore either with that eye.

    Another guy that's MIA is Paul Briggs. Would love to see that guy again.

    The heavyweights need to get much busier. The division is getting boring. I tihnk Calvin Brock v. Tony Thompson would be interesting at this point.

    I can do without Winky and his whining.

    Jirov I would like to see back the rest you can keep.
