Tony Ferguson vs. Kelvin Gastelum at 170lbs
Khabib Nurmagomedov vs Colby Covington 170lbs
Tony vs. Nate any weight

Alexander Gustaffson vs. Paulo Costa 205lbs
Adesanya vs Usman 185
Wonderboy vs Mousasi 185
Jones vs Stipe Heavyweight
Who do you have for each?
 
I would love Colby Khabib. Khabib is better everywhere, but Colby has the cardio and scramble to make it fun.

I'm genuinely curious to see how that fight would go. I can't imagine it being as 1 sided as most of Khabib's fights.
 
Tony Ferguson vs. Kelvin Gastelum at 170lbs
Kelvin's not making 170 again.

Khabib Nurmagomedov vs Colby Covington 170lbs
This would be fun, Khabib takes it.

Tony vs. Nate any weight
Tony for sure. He's basically a more well rounded version of Nate.

Jorge Masvidal vs. Kelvin Gastelum 170lbs
Kelvin isn't making 170, I think he'd handle Masvidal fairly easy though

Alexander Gustaffson vs. Paulo Costa 205lbs
Gus's heart isn't in it anymore. Costa would fuck him up currently.

Adesanya vs Usman 185
Usman wins this. Israel just doesn't have the grappling experience to hang with him, and doesn't really have the KO power to take him out standing.

Wonderboy vs Mousasi 185
This could be a cool matchup. I'd probably lean towards Mousasi, however I think both are past their prime.

Jones vs Stipe Heavyweight
This might be the most likely fight to happen on the list. Jones doesn't lose fights.... And Stipe is very hittable. I wouldn't bet against Jones in this one.
 
I'd still like to see Kelvin vs Whittaker at some point for the blown-up welterweight supremacy. Besides that:

Gaethje vs Lando
Big Frank vs Greg Hardy
PMP vs Masvidal
Lando vs Yanci
Geoff Neal vs T-Wood
Cannonier vs Costa
Rockhold vs Silva
Ryan Hall vs Ortega
Yair vs Emmett
 
Very possible and very unlikely seems oxymoronic.

I would add Cejudo vs. a woman to that list.
 
So, you just made a list of two well known names where one fighter changes weight classes?

I got one for you: Souza v Blachowicz ;)
 
Khabib by the same way he wins all his fights

No way Jorge by flying headkick like Werdum did to Travis Browne.

We have already seen Jorge do a flying dick kick and a flying knee to the head, now its time to try the flying head kick!
