    No, Mr. Joe Silva and Dana

    Make it a opener fight in a card that provides TWO championship fights

    Nah. I doubt the UFC would do it either. I'd be fine with it headlining a Fight Night card or a PPV co-main event.

    Co main or 3rd fight on a good card.

    On free tv sure.

    It's 2015.

    Nope. Only suitable to be a co-main for Fight Night or Canadian card.

    Unrealistic question..Today Quinton v. Shogun wouldnt even be entertained as a ppv main event..Fight night main event,maybe.

    It's the kind of fight you put before a "Ronda vs. Anyone but Cyborg" match in order to mask the fact that Ronda doesn't sell.

    I don't buy a ppv based purely on the main event, TS. This is a forum for people who supposedly follow the sport, not just stupid advertisements. So your question really means nothing.

    Rampage v Hendo on the prelims? I hope you're just joking.

    Fun co-main event for UFC Japan or a main event of a Fight Night.

    If they put it on free TV, I would be willing to bet it would be the highest rated fight in Fight Night history.

    It depends on the undercard. If Page/Shogun 2 is the main event than it's safe to assume that there is no other star power on the card. This doesn't bother me as long as there are some interesting prospect/contender fights on the rest of the card. You know, your Robert Whittakers, Mirsad Bektics, Mairbek Taisomovs of the roster.

    No sir, that's a match to open up a main card not headline it.
