This was probably gone over numerous times but is this present rules that are used in the UFC,Strikeforce etc.....or can we have everyone fight under Pride rules? I'm really hoping it's the latter of the two..... haha

Oh ok......I was just thinking the final results would probably be drastically different depending on which rules were applied....... Actually.....Jon Jones with foot stomps and soccer kicks? excuse my language but **** that!!! haha

They've both said they would never fight each other, but I agree back in Pride that fight would have been absolutely insane!

2005 Shogun was SCARY. I think he'd beat Wand, and everyone else in this bracket.

(I think Nog would have beat Couture too... good match up for him. Prime Couture's sub defense was iffy, modern Couture couldn't take him down)

Oh and Machida would wreck Liddell. Chuck had power and a great sprawl, wouldn't help with Lyoto.

@Mino I'm a huge Couture fan and I actually agree that Lil Nog would have been a bad match-up for him

I like Randy a lot too, but I don't see him winning that fight.

Thanks for not voting me down, haha.

Hendo and Jones, two of my favorite fighters. How interesting. Kind of surprised Hendo is leading, to be honest.

I don't think Shogun would take out Wandy. Slightly biased, because who doesn't like Wandy, and I don't like Shogun. Whatever. Don't care right now.

I have no idea how Dan Henderson is beating Jon Jones. Are Jones' haters or Dan's nuthuggers out in force? Both? I hate Jones on a personal level, but come on, no way is he losing to Dan Henderson.

@hybrid i think Wandy vs Shogun both in their prime would be alot closer of a fight then the thumbs show.
And I don't know how Dan is beating Jones either but i do like it ha
