Hey these are pretty good... I like many of them...good going....I think there going to have to figure this out fairly quickly on Conors situation cause make no mistake... that young man is finally going to have to defend a belt..Unless Nate 3 is next right? I really dont see that as a reality... A lot will be decided once they decide what belt hes planning on keeping right?

I particularly like the JJ/Andrade choice... THAT to me is the right fight to make... along with Calderwood/KK....

What about Tony Ferguson tho? Should he get a crack at either Conor or Khabib first? Personaly I think Khabib has some stuff in his stand up he needs to "shore up" a little before he can be successful against Conor..just my opinion...  Ferguson would be a real draw for that title shot...

Would rather see McGregor vs. Ferguson first, other than that not many ideas after this one that I like any better than yours.

I think from a fan standpoint my dream matchups would be:


- Khabib vs. Aldo: Imagine that relentless TD pressure vs. the best TDD there's probably ever been.

- Alvarez vs. Nate Diaz: Lead up between the two would be great. Plus they have some beef from their run in at UFC 188.

- McGregor vs. Ferguson: McGregor wouldn't benefit from a reach or height advantage. Plus stylistically they probably would have some great chemistry and put on a fantastic show for the fans.

Khabib vrs Aldo would be interesting. Would Khabib be able to get him down?

All I know is that Khabib vs Aldo would be amazing. It'd be like an unstoppable force vs. an unmovable object.

I think the marquee guys at the very top of the FW division might want to think about a temporary move to another division if they have title ambitions. Frankie should take a fight in BW and then challenge Cruz for the BW title. Aldo should take a fight in LW if he wants to chase McGregor. I can't imagine the true FW title being contested for, for awhile. Too many fresh names and matchups at LW for Conor.

Weidman vs hit the wrestling again , travel to Colorado Olympic training centre for the best training / spars ( if can be arranged ..), run the mountain there,maybe hit Ludwig while there , can turn it around and be champ still but it's gonna take a serious push, something new

When Ferguson beat RDA, I thought that there was no way in hell that Khabib should get the shot over Ferguson even if he beats Johnson... But after seeing how easily Khabib ran through Johnson, and how destructive it was, I think it's pretty clear to see that Khabib deserves the shot before Tony does.
