My guess would be either Stefan Struve or Bigfoot Silva.
Mark Hunt is the only other top 15-20 HW not scheduled, and I don't think the UFC throws Brock in against him. Bad idea.
I'm hoping for Lesnar v. Struve.

I don;t see the point of Lesnar in the UFC. his younger self got wrecked. I bet this is a one time deal to try to cover for the Nate vs Conor dumped fight

Without Conor, they need to card to at least do better than his PPVs, otherwise all the power they gained by taking him off the card goes right back to him.
Jon Jones has never broke the 1M PPV mark (his last fight did a measly 350K, and that had a "Jones' return" stroyline to it).
We all know that stacking a card means nothing without a marketable headliner (UFC 178 was STACKED and did 205K even though the majority of the marketing was done while Jones was still the headliner).
GSP and Ronda aren't coming back for UFC 200 and the last guy other than them to break the 1M PPV mark was Brock Lesnar (well, Rashad too, but I doubt he brings in a million these days ;) ).
At the end of the day, with heavy marketing, Brock, stacked card it will end up breaking the 1.2M PPV mark (though I don't think Brock on a card will have the same effect it had when he was champion of the world and looked like an invincible beast, he will still bring in the numbers), but with all that AND Conor headlining they could've had their first 2M PPV MMA card. The centennial cards don't come along every day and they're missing out on an opportunity with this one, no matter how well the card does, the numbers so far have shown that with Conor headlining it would do 40%-60% better. I guess that's a price they're willing to pay in order to keep the power in their hands and not see it shift in the fighters' direction.
