Right I want to see who you guys come up with and why.
I'll get things rolling with my first two picks of who I want Anderson to fight
1) Wanderlei Silva (UFC): One of the most furious and aggressive strikers in the MMA world, one of the few people that have the elite level Muay Thai clinch and striking in the MMA game.
2) Hector Lombard (Bellator): The guy is a freak of nature, fast, powerful. A black belt in Judo and a black belt in BJJ should mean he is a submission fighter, but no he is one of those rare fighters who has crazy ground game but prefers to strike (much like Wanderlei and Forrest Griffin) and his last handful of opponents have been KTFO!
That's all that immediatley come to mind from me.

Would Sonnen and Okami fight for the title if okami wins? Would be cool after all Sonnen has been training Okami so I think he wins in the same manner as he did last time.

I imagine Chael would have no problem fighting Okami if the impossible happened!

When Wand said he was moving down to 185 I was so excited for the possible Spider/Axe Murderer fight...Now not so much

"hahaha...I said that the only way someone could hate Wandy is if they were a Rampage fan!! I'm a huge Rampage fan and love Wandy too!!"


same here soccer,  in the cage they are both animals, i love watching them fight ... i know Rampage has had a few lack lustered fights as of late but that hasn't stopped the excitement of watching his future fights, same with Wand, Win or lose you know its gonna be a war!

and out of the cage, Wand is a class act , very respectful and humble, you always see him taking time out to meet and greet his fans, and Rampage's antics out of the cage have me in stitches sometimes.

Wandy's persona and character outside of the cage should allow no one to hate him.
