Agreed with those so long as Day gets the winner, and I think that due to the whole Thiago can't make wieght thing he should have to scrap Kos first. Matt Hughes gets inducted into the Hall of Fame if he chooses to retire!!

I'm just going to list a few of the big winners.....

Alves - GSP/Fitch winner for the belt. KO wins over Karo & Hughes has earned him a shot IMO

Bisping - Kampmann. I would love to see this fight. But since Bisping was so impressive the UFC might give him a bigger name in the middleweight division to be a co-main event fight (Franklin or Henderson)

Werdum - Probably a title shot against the Nog/Mir winner. But I want to see a rematch with him and Vera. Werdum was winning the fight but Vera was still in the fight and should have been given a chance to survive the round.

Swick - Karo Parysian. I think this would be a great fight. I didn't think Swick had much of a chance against Davis but he proved me wrong. I was impressed with Swick last night.

Finally, I have no idea how they handle the Leites/Marquardt decision. Marquardt clearly "won" the fight but lost due to the penalties. It will be interesting to see what types of fights they give these two next. IMO, Marquardt is the better fighter and should not slip in the rankings.

Mike Swick and Diego would be a great fight. Im a Swick fan and really dislike Sanchez, but I would give the edge to Diego.
