I think that Royce vs Wanderlei would be a blowout in favor of Wanderlei. Royce is a legend and MMA pioneer, but the game's changed too much, Wandi has an underrated ground game IMO, and Wandi is just too much of a beast.

Griffin / Rampage could be an utter war if Griffin doesn't get Jardine'd in the first round. Forrest learns fast though, I think this would actually be a great fight, not just a fantasy matchup

Not only would Griffin - Rampage be a great fight, it's one that has every possibility to take place within the next year or two.

I like Griffin, but I would not bet against Rampage, who I feel is simply the superior fighter.

Ya Penn V Aoki would definately be the 2 most active, flexible ,explosive, and imaginative BJJ
guys I've seen who knows Penn might acually keep it standing a while to soften him up.

Since when did Aoki have a better ground game than Penn?

Aoki's ground game would not even be a factor. BJ would make it a boxing match. Aoki would know he doesn't stand a chance on his feet with Penn and would wanna bring it to the ground. Against Penn however, he doesn't stand a chance there either.
Plus, one of the most difficult things in all of MMA has got to be bringing BJ Penn to the mat when he doesn't want to go there. Which is quite ironic because NOBODY in all MMA has better ground game.

You can never know until they fight. We are all just giving opinions
