If UFC held a Bellator-style "heavyweight" tournament who would win?

[Topguntrophey]

 

[HomeRun916]

Werdum or Brock.

 

[sabretitan]

Ts you will probably get burned on here for sugesstinsit,but fuck I really hope they do a GP someday .
I get the injuries, but that's what alternates are for

 

[BigMuffler]

No Ngannou, Blaydes or Lewis?

Too young and fresh.

 

[Eli1015]

Stipe KOs all them

 

[ImNotSurpisedDonks!]

Post USADA: Reem or Werdum.

Pre USADA? Reem all day, not even close.

Its sad he has such a terrible chin

Strangely, Reem actually performed better post USADA. After he got busted, he toned it down, while all the other fighters had to transition when USADA was implemented.

 

[tommy_gunn]

No Cain?

 

[infidelkastro]

Heavy weight tournament without stipe? The current UFC champion????

But hey, you get Hector.

He did say bellator style, so washed up fighters and middleweights

 

[Gambit MMA]

Jds or reem

Yeah I was hoping "bearer of ancient wisdom" would be enough of a clue lol.

 

[da best eva]

Hwgp or lhwgp

 

[JoshR86]

Ronda Rousey under the right circumstances

 

[A.S. Deep]

Winner of fight 1 fights winner of fight 2 and so forth, which bearer of ancient wisdom would come out on top?

Fabricio Werdum vs Josh Barnett
Alistair Overeem vs Alexey Oleynik
Brock Lesnar vs Junior Dos Santos
Andrei Arlovski vs Mark Hunt
Anderson Silva vs Shogun Rua
Lyoto Machida vs Antonio Rogerio Nogueira
Michael Bisping vs Vitor Belfort (2)
Rashad Evans vs Hector Lombard

Probably Werdum, Overeem, Lesnar, or JDS. I don't think Barnett or Oleyinik can beat the top of the division. As for the smaller guys, they'd probably get wrecked. Overeem/Blaydes will tell us how Overeem/Lesnar II would go, and JDS/Ivanov will tell us how current JDS is.

If all these guys are prime and juiced (aka Reem is UBEReem), then it's the winner of JDS/Ubereem. I'd have to go with pre-Cain JDS.

 

[Summoning]

All those HWs gonna be 50 years old at the end of the tournament.

 

[gono btw]

Cain V

I mean... Who would be crazy enough to insert Cain in a Tournament?

 

[Mondo Freaks]

Out of those choices I’d say a Prime JDS has the best chance followed by Werdum

 

[Toco]

ngannou??

 

[Horriblehim]

Erick Silva

 

[Horriblehim]

Or Joey Beltran
