[Drake]

He has only beat Dariush tho, all of these guys have better wins than Dariush.

Dariush is the dark horse of the division & looked phenomenal in that first round.

 

[MikeyCanFly]

Eddie vs Nate would be lit

 

[ArtemV]

Dariush is the dark horse of the division & looked phenomenal in that first round.

I think Taisumov will be more successful than Dariush, but you're right. He definitely won the first round without any trouble.

 

[007]

You're leaving out Chiesa, bruh!

Hurt

 

[MPD-Psycho]

Ferguson should get the title shot next, then Barboza though I'm not sure he'll eventually fight Alvarez since they're friends/teammates. Or just give it to Conor/Sage if you wanna go the "sport entertainment " route.

Yes he did. Great against Vick as well including a brain rattling knockout. Dariush vs Duffy next please.

 

[JohnyBrabo]

I think Taisumov will be more successful than Dariush, but you're right. He definitely won the first round without any trouble.

Thai Sumo is a beast. Ready to see him against some of the top guys. Lentz is no slouch though should be a good test.

[latoya johnson]

Ferguson v Alvarez.
Khabib v Barboza for no.1 Contender.
Done.

 

[Fight Professor]

Ferguson vs Alvarez
Khabib vs Barboza
Conor vs RDA

 

[Scamrock]

Honestly, there are no bad fights in this division. Any fights they make are gonna be good.

 

[Dogo1]

I'm not putting Khabib in a title fight until he proves he can fight every six months. Having titles high jacked by injury hurts the whole division.

 

[Kyler Ruxin]

You're leaving out Chiesa, bruh!

Chiesa vs. Diaz.

 

[Drake]

Chiesa vs. Diaz.

 

[qw3rty]

Sherdog's matches to make suggested it but I think Edson would beat Brooks pretty handily honestly. He doesn't have the same problems with pressure fighting now that he had in the past.

They'll give Brooks a top guy but I think they'll likely try and build him up a bit more, so it'll be someone besides Barboza I think.

Brooks vs Chiesa would be nice

Yeah honestly this would be hard to screw up, even for Joe Silva. Some great fights suggested in this thread already.

 

[Arkridge]

Alvarez vs. Conor/Diaz Winner
Ferguson vs. Khabib
Barboza vs. Poirier/MJ Winner
Chiesa vs. Brooks

The Situation

 

[Kyler Ruxin]

Alvarez vs. Conor/Diaz Winner
Ferguson vs. Khabib
Barboza vs. Poirier/MJ Winner
Chiesa vs. Brooks

Those fights are all good, but if Conor doesn't defend that belt after this Nate fight, they HAVE to strip it.

 

[Siesta]

Khabib vs Ferguson
Winner gets Alvarez
Loser gets RDA/Barboza
