Just my personnal opinion but from what's coming next, among all those rematches, the two that i'm most interested in are Rockhold/Weidman and Cormier/Jones. Well there's not much to say about it :

The first fight between the two middleweights was pretty close, and while some people say Chris got his ass kicked (which is completely dishonest), i am very excited to watch them go at it healthy and focused. They're both dominant, really talented, and at the top of their game.

The Jones/Cormier fight was closer than some sherdogers said. Jones is coming from difficult personnal issues, and Cormier gained some confidence while being champ. I'm curious to see whether the second fight will be different.

And last but not least, my favorite match up of this year. The red king will face wonderboy in what is to me the most anticipated "fresh" battle of 2016 so far. Not a rematch for once, and two scary dudes with their own fighting style. Don't want any of them to lose, but i'll sure be rooting for an amazing fight. Let the better man wins this.

What do you got ?
 
For me the fight im more interested in is Rory vs Stephen because i think its the most dificult outcome to predict.
I think Luke will beat Chris and Jones is definatly the favorite vs Cormier...allthough will be rooting for Cormier to make history and beat Jones :D
 
Three best:

1. MacDonald vs Thompson
2. Cormier vs Jones 2
3. Aldo vs Edgar 2


Three i'm most interested in:

1. Cruz vs Faber 3
2. Tate vs Nunes
3. Rockhold vs Weidman 2
 
Yeah Aldo/Edgar should be interesting too. One has his confidence shaken, the other is on the rising
 
Aldo is criminally under appreciated
 
Too many predictable rematches for my taste.

DC vs Jones= jones
Weidman vs Rockhold= rockhold
Edgar vs Aldo= edgar
Faber vs cruz= cruz.

Ok let's go back to this when the event is over. Jones vs St Preux is something we can call "predictable". But would you bet your house on his win over Cormier ?
Plus saying Rockhold beats Weidman for sure after their first fight is a quick judgement
 
As much as I can't stand the guy I see Weidman winning the rematch. He will fight smart and grind Luke down to take the UD. Thompson v Rory should be a war, to tough to predict. Jones v Cormier should make for some good media leading up but Jones has his number. Easy win.
