I'm thinking either Bonnar or Forrest Griffin.

What do you guys think?

@live2wrestle, I completely agree with all of that (except Machida being a borderline top 10, i have him ranked 4th). Nog's TDD has been steadily improving, and that showed during the Ortiz fight, when Ortiz shot a single and Nog stuffed it with ease. Ortiz may not be the caliber wrestler of Phil Davis, but Nogueira was completely unable to defend Davis' single legs, and he stopped Ortiz' easily. 

I think that on the feet-I'm in the minority here-there is just about no one that can beat him. Henderson, Machida and Shogun are the three people who I wouldn't be confident in Nog outstriking.

I think Bonnar, Griffin, Rampage, Igor Pakarajac, or rematches with Ryan Bader or Dan Henderson would all be good match-ups for Lil Nog.

Lil Nog vs. Shogun would be pretty good too.
