Heavyweights, Heavyweights, Heavyweights

With so much turmoil going on in the heavy weight division i have a couple questions.

1.since nog is going to fight winner of Vera/BigTim, who do you see ending up with the title?

2.who should get the next title shot after that?

3. Will couture ever return even if fedor never signs to the ufc?

4.If the TUF show continues like it is, who will coach the heavyweight season and who will win the fight between coaches?

1. I see Nog ending up with the title, unless vera dominates Big Tim and proves himself to be a very serious threat.

2.I think Kongo and AA should fight for the next title shot. meaning AA gets the next title shot

3.Even if couture never has the oppurtunity to fight fedor i still see him returning to the ufc. What if he returned as a light heavy again???

4.i have no clue, maybe Couture as one coach and his fight against the other coach will be his return to ufc.

and i thought there was 8 question there

well,
1= Nog

2= Gonzaga after beating AA

3= no

4= well, i will like to see nog but he will need a translator, LOL well, gonzaga against nogueira and at the end the 2 translators are fighting for the title !!!!

I'm too lazy to answer all those questions but I really like the idea of Kongo vs. AA that would be a crazy fight.

1. Nogueira
2. Frank Mir
3. no
4. Matt Hughes and Evan Tanner would be the coaches and Tanner would defeat hughes in the finale fight

Fedor isnt the only reason Randy left, he felt disrespected by the management and there were financial reasons. He isnt going back to the UFC ever.

are you crazy? frank mir? i don't understand how anyone could even consider frank mir being anywhere near the title picture. he has looked horrible in his last four fights putting up sloppy performances and looking despicable. as for hughes vs tanner, i don't understand how you can even think that would be a good fight. maybe it would have been good the second season when it was supposed to, but now tanner is washed up and hasn't fought in a year and a half. i just don't understand where you are coming from with your answers to 3 and 4.

My answers:

1) Big nog
2) winner of a match between GG and Kongo (arlovski has contract issues) which woud be GG
3) no, he has cut all ties with the ufc and it doesn't look like he will ever try to fix them
4) good coaches for HW would be henderson and rampage, no HW in the ufc atm would make a good coach atm, so i went w/ 2 great LHW who are personable and good coaches

EDIT: sorry that came off like i was an a$$hole...i didn't mean to be critical on you, i would just appreciate it if you illiterate on your choices. again don't mean to be a dick.

Way to contribute to the conversation and answer the questions! Glad your out of my camp...


1. Big Nog vs Vera for the belt, and I think Vera's inexperience in big fights will hurt him here and Big Nog will take home the belt. But if it turns out to be Sylvia vs Nog, then Nogs only hope would be a decision, but I don't know if he could survive 5 rounds against the striking of Tim Sylvia.

2. Next title shot after that? Tough question, it would all depend on how other heavyweight fights turn out.

3. Possibly, but the best chance of Randy Couture returning would be if Fedor signs.

4. I'd personally love to see two light-heavyweights, specifically Wanderlei Silva and Chuck Liddell as the coaches, setting up their fight for the Ultimate Finale.

I don't think Mir is near title shot either but I think he looked pretty good against Antoni Hardonk. Hardonk is one of those guys that is really learning alot and you can tell if he had some more practice he could get good but mir pretty much dominated him on the ground.

i think i know why he put Mir, well because Mir's last fight was good ,and he mentioned that he have now completely recover for a back injuree i think,and that he said he wanted to get the belt !! also, it must be more a wish than a prediction !!! LOL

The coaches of the next UF show may depend on what weight class there going to do. Actually, didn't they already anounce that? Anyway, I think Big Nog will probably win the title. I don't think Sylvia can handle him on the ground, at all. If Vera beats Sylvia, I think that would be an interesting fight.
2. I think AA has to be thrown back into the mix. I think he should probably fight Kongo, with the winner getting the next shot. Then you could have Mir fight Gonzaga for the next shot after that.
3. At this point in time, I really don't expect Couture ever coming back. At his age he'll probably wait for his contract to be up, and then go fight Fedor in his org. After that, he may come back as a commentator or coach or whatever, but right now, there's no way.
4. I think Rampage is a good possiblity to have as a coach. Their trying to put his face out there as much as possible, gain more recognition, and capitalize on him as much as possibly.
