We have 2 very important fights coming up at MW: Souza vs Brunson. And Romero vs Branch.

In case of victory, who do you think should fight the winner of Whittaker vs Rockhold?
What fight would you like to see?

Romero vs Rockhold would be a dream match up in the MW division.

Souza ? (Most people believe he only lost to Whittaker, that he actually won that fight against Romero)

Brunson is KOing everyone. Depending on how he beats Souza, I could see him getting a TS.

Thoughts?
 
GSP....oh no wait, he ducked the whole division.

Should be Yoel if Rockhold wins. If Whittaker wins then Kelvin or Whineman if he wins another fight.
 
If Whittaker wins vs Rockhold, I would prefer a fresh matchup for him.
 
It depends on who wins. If Whittaker wins Jacare or Brunson can't really get the immediate shot. Neither can Yoel.

Probably would have to be Kelvin or Chris.

If Rockhold wins it's a lot more open. Jacare vs Rockhold II is a great match up. So is Yoel vs Luke. Brunson/Kelvin/Chris II are also all interesting.

I really feel for Jacare, he earned a shot a long time ago but was continually denied, so if Luke beats Rob and Souza beats Brunson, I'd prefer their rematch.
 
With Bitchsping finally out of the picture, I am just hoping we will see a lot of activity at the top of the middleweight division moving forward.

Unfortunately, Yoel is turning 41 in April. So his athleticism really should be falling off a cliff soon if USADA is doing their job.

You're right.
Romero had pulled out and Camozzi stepped in, but he wasn´t ranked name. Souza did his job anyways.
But Rockhold (who had been KOed by TRT Belfort; no shame in it) got the TS before him, because he fought a more ranked name, Machida.
And than that controversial decision against Romero....
I just hope he comes back healthy and put on a good show against Brunson. If he comes back in good shape, I see him finishing Brunson.
 
Weidman does & it's not even close in terms of draw or justification.
 
How is this street fight guy getting a TS???

All three have already lost to Whittaker. If Rob wins then he can take out Weidman next.
 
Although I don't think weidman really deserves the shot next assuming he wins and Bobby K wins I do think it makes some of the most sense considering everyone has already lost to Robert.... I think Souza deserves it perhaps the most. I also feel Souza has the best shot at beating him.

P.S.
I also don't think Rochhold has much of a shot at winning either

Get the fuck outta here, Yoel Romero had a perfect UFC record and never got an actual title fight, and only lost a very close decision to Whittaker. Weidman got destroyed three times in a row against top contenders and has only beat Gastelum since then.

Perhaps we can have a Romero vs Weidman rematch as a title eliminator and then when Romero wins with ease again he will get his actual title shot.
 
Romero.
His fight against Whittaker was close, wouldn't mind seeing part 2.
 
What if Branch wins though?
