Affliction 100% and all of the big name fighters from the UFC would crowd over to Affliction creating the roster the fans have always wanted to see

the ufc would not just "go under" it would be purchased by a rival org much they did with pride. affliction/trump would be the highest bidders.

Affliction doesn't even have a full roster. they only have a HW division and i don't think a promotion with one event could be a front runner. also, we have to realize that MMA is a world wide sport. we can't be stuck in the American perspective and with that in mind i would say Dream/WVR would take the helm as they have more of a full roster, international superstars and appeals internationally.

DREAM for definate.

I think all of the former PRIDE guys would just join up with the Japanese organisation again.
