    I was thinking about this for awhile and I essentially came to two conclussions. One is that Fedor desperately needs to win his next fight, and two, he should avoid fighting skilled fighters 4-7" taller than him and 40-50lbs heavier.

    Got me thinking that perhaps the long overdue Couture fight would be an option, but there may be contract issues preventing that, otherwise I think many in Strikeforce's heavyweight division may give him problems.

    So simply question, if Fedor fights again, who should he fight?

    He should fight the loser of Overeem/Werdum. He wins than he can continue if not then he needs to call it a day.

    I have seen a few interviews with Scott Coker and would not be shocked if this is his next fight...

    They are talking about the loser of Werdum Overeem. Werdum coming off of a loss would be interesting but Del Rosario is a level below at the moment and would be a better measuring stick.

    Griggs and Reem should fight each other to establish the number 2 alternate or the semi finalist of the alternates.
