Miocic JDS Overeem Barnett Browne I like Miocic vs Reem, JDS vs Browne, and let Barnett fight Gonzaga or Struve I guess (he deserves better but he is coming off a loss and he's the odd man out).
Most of them are too old right now though. Like, Barnett is 37 in November. Anyway I like JDS vs. Browne and Overeem vs. Barnett so idk where that leaves Miocic but I don't really like him either so wop.
By too old I meant retired or no longer able to beat the younger but less skilled guys. Then we'll have Schaub vs Cain for the title if we don't get some new quality prospects. UFC needs to steal some HWs whose names end in -ov.
I'm throwing in bigfoot because he needs to fight Barnett. Reem VS Stipe Bigfoot VS Barnett JDS vs Browne
I'm gonna need to see someone other than Cain make JDS look human before I'll believe the HW division is anything but a 2 man race with 2nd place needing 1st to have a shit performance.
It's tough with so few quality heavyweights but maybe: Miocic vs Dos Santos Overeem vs winner of Shaub v Arlovski Barnatt vs Big Nog III Browne vs winner of Nelson v Hunt I think Stipe and Junior are the only real contenders on this list right now but I don't want to see Browne get someone that he's going to really outclass. With the depth in the division though any of these guys is potentially just a couple wins from a title fight.
Browne already beat Barnett and Reem... so, I like: JDS vs Miocic Barnett vs Reem Browne gets winner of JDS vs Miocic. I like it this way because I really want to see Miocic vs JDS... and I am not so sure that they could get past Browne. A year ago I'd have been pretty sure JDS could... but absence makes the bet grow weaker.
Jds/browne-either browne is legit contender or not...junior isn't gonna shoot double legs against the cage....either junior can improve or not... Jacksons gonna put together a gameplan that tests juniors grappling Overeem/barnett-beating mir doesn't erase ko's... Beating barnett -decisively- might .... Takedown AO, submit AO .... Travis who? Stipe/BF-easiest to promote.....stipe got nothing from fabio fight,but he showed up and did what he was supposed to......BF's last 4 fights were- title eliminator against cain/title eliminator against AO/ title shot vs cain/ FOTY w hunto Stipe gets deserved step up Win puts BF back in convo While all that happens werdum taps cain Hunt ko's BC(similar to tank/matua) Werdum vs hunt superbowl weekend Hunt stuffs shot after shot and KO's werdum
