Cancelled fights that would have changed the history of the ufc

[Isthat-yo bop]

What comes to mind is Pettis vs aldo. And rashad vs shogun in 2011. Oh
My we may have never gotten the jones destruction of shogun. Rashad probably would have been light heavy goat. And Pettis vs aldo probably would have never gave rise to mcgregor. Any other fights that would have made today look different

 

[ALAN PARTRIDGE]

I don't care about any of that, it didn't happen.

 

[SKITZADACTYL]

how would rashad have been the LHW GOAT? jones probably would've just gotten the titleshot like 1 fight later anyway.

and conor was still gonna work his way up the FW division, this is all so dumb lmao.

Royce getting KO'd in 2 minutes

Am I during this wrong?

Conor vs. RDA. Conor remains undefeated, moves up to welterweight to defeat Robbie Lawler. With so much power he leaves the UFC and starts up his own promotion, which after 9 years becomes bigger then soccer.

There is no wrong answer. Literally, any fight that never happened would have changed history had it happened. How much is just a wild ass guess. This belongs in the Wasteland.

Conor Vs. RDA, things may have turned out a little differently.

 

[charalsias]

One potentially big one outside the UFC is Lesnar vs Choi.

 

[agus_bombonera]

I think he's scarier now... now he looks like he could chase you.

Hendo knocking out Jones at UFC 151.

 

[Matthew Fedler]

Brock Lesnar Vs Mark Coleman
(he was replace by Heath Herring)
Woudln't have change sh*t, But I wanted to see this...

It might have lead to MMA being banned after Lesnar murdered an old man on PPV. No offense to Coleman.

Cancelled fights? Well I am not sure exactly what the fall out would have been since they didn't happen, but some I really wish would have happened were Ken Shamrock vs Tank Abbot, Ken Shamrock vs Marco Ruas, Tank Abbot vs Patrick Smith, Matt Hughes vs Anderson Silva, George St.Pierre vs Anderson Silva, Dan Hardy vs Thiago Alves, Dominic Cruz vs Renan Barao, Mark Coleman vs Tank Abbot, Bas Ruten vs Pedro Rizzo, Josh Barnett vs Rico Rodriguez and just for fun lets say prime Igor Vovchanchin vs prime Mark Hunt.

 

[FlyingKimurabar]

UFC 189 obviously. Instead of Conor facing a two week camp mendes who gassed after a round he would of faced Aldo and maybe the fight would of gone different. At the very least it would of changed Conors current path, and his current path is one of the biggest things in MMA history so it changed a shit load to say the least.

 

[sangreporsangre]

Weren't Ronda and Cyborg supposed to fight in Strikeforce? I wonder how different the whole WMMA landscape could have turned out to be if that fight went down.
