Yay or nay?

Werdum lost to Miocic.
Arlovski to Overeem.

Makes sense to have them square off.
 
Eh. I think Werdum vs Rothwell or JDS makes more sense.

Then Arlovski vs Barnett.
 
if werdum loses to arlovski that's devastating for his position in the division. arlovski comes from 2 defeats and needs a comeback fight so he shouldn't be facing werdum at all. you gotta think these aspects when matchmaking because you don't want to burn a fighter too badly...
 
Arlovski lost 2 in a row.
Werdum was champ.
Werdum rothwell makes way more sense.

Yeah, I don't wanna see a third loss for Arlovski in a row, and that would be very possible.
 
Hey guys, was just looking at Wikipedia article for JDS and saw this:

Arlovski needs to enter the part of his career where he isn't taking fights to further his case for a title fight but rather to fill out cards with matches the fans want. He's been knocked out twice in a row so the streak is well and gone. Give him someone like Barnett. I'd prefer if he retire though, once you hit that point, especially in HW, you're just risking more and more brain trauma.

Werdum vs. Big Ben makes sense, I think.
 
JDS vs Werdum. They have unfinished business, and they're both top 5 (or top 3). Plus JDS beat Miocic. This could set up a title fight between JDS and Miocic. And if JDS won, it would most likely lead us back to....


A fourth JDS AND CAIN TITLE FIGHT!!!

Haha! Didn't know people screw with these at night. Just checked Conor and Ronda, but no gems there unfortunately.

Method of loss for Conor vs Diaz could be "submission (panic wrestling)."
 
The UFC needs to get some new high level heavyweights asap. Pretty soon the entire division will have fought each other at least once. I wouldn't mind seeing Arlovski vs JDS.

You're right.. That division has Cain... Stipe.. JDS and Overeem are good.. And can win the belt.. But I don't see either of them defending.. Taken too much damage.

Great matchup but the Werdum-Rothwell makes sense as well. Arlovski with two consecutive losts against former world champion is not so logic.
 
I'd rather see Werdum vs. Barnett or JDS.
That'd be an interesting ground fight.. on paper.. Barnet lost on the ground against cro cop of all people... though.. . at his own lay and pray game.

I like the Werdum-Rothwell idea. Dos Santos vs Werdum for #1 contender probably makes the most sense though.
 
Rothwell vs Werdum would be nice.

Your profile pic. THE RETURN OF THE KING.

War Vitali Klitschko!

Right now, Arlovski would be destroyed against JDS.
 
I don't really care about the match up, there are plenty of great fights at HW and anything can happen, I just want to see the big names fight more frequently.
