lesnar vs. nog, with nog taking it down. randy won't be able to sub ko or out wrestle brock so brock wins. nog puts on a jiu jitsu clinic against mir. then in the finals nog takes a monumental beating and capitalizes on a big mistake by brock, the type of mistake that randy couldn't take advantage of.

Lesner should not be in the title picture, I belive he will be in the near future, but he did just recieve a loss from Mir. For that much, not sure if Mir sould be getting one either. IMO Werdum should be facing Nog. It is a shame that the UFC let AA and Big Tim go, between them, the have beaten almost everyone in Title contention, but then again, we would be seeing the two go at it for the 4th, 5th and so on times. I love the idea of Vera at LHW, and I think he will be LHW Champ before long, but I think he can also take out most everyone in the HW div.
SO, Randy vs. Lesner I want Randy to win, but I think he will be up aginst someone with more power and can match Randys wrestling skills. Lesner wins. Nog vs. Mir this is a great match up, but I will go with Nog.
In the end the Champ will be ?? Nog if this is fairly soon, but if this is in say 2 years, I will go with Lesner if he learns enough sub escapes, he could lay a beat down on Nog.

This is quite the ? This is pretty much the Semi-Finals of a HW GP in the UFC(unofficially). Both Mir and Lesnar(IMO) have a chance/good chance of winning their respective fights. Wow i cant wait until December. Maybe we'll have a Lesnar vs Fedor fight in the mix?!?!?!?!?
EDIT: For UFC gold that is.

I love how people have not learned from counting Randy Couture out. I would not be surprised if Lesnar won, but I see Randy taking this. Brock is not gonna catch Randy off guard like he did Mir and Herring. Part of what helped Brock, was such a lack of tape on the guy, we really did not know what he was gonna do. We got a full 3 rounds in with the Herring/Lesnar fight. Randy is very very strong. Look how much stronger he looked than Gonzaga, and Gonzaga is a strong man. As long as Randy weathers that initial storm, hes winning this. He will outcraft Brock. He will make Brock use his strength against himself, getting him in bad positions. Those who are used to Randy being Randy will not be surprised. Those who dont think outside the box, will once again be on here commenting on how Randy amazed them, again. Yes it is amazing, but I am used to it. I know Randy had some struggles against big heavyweights earlier in his career. But guess what, he's actually better now. That's where the jist of this is. People fail to realize that Randy gets better as he gets older. Brock will be better, but Randy is already to good, and hes also getting better.

I agree..Nog winning it all. But then Dana would have the true champ being Nog but I dont think we will see Nog/Fedor 4. Im hoping Randy can do it so we could see the superfight but dont think he can! ...yes im counting captain america out!!!

Suprised that 6 people think that we'll get a Frank Mir vs. Lesnar match. Either way every match is pure money.
Randy vs. Mir (this sells itself as an undisputed match) Lesnar vs. Mir (This would be a huge rematch especially since Mir and Lesnar would have proven their worth by beating Nog and Couture) Randy vs. Mir (If Randy beats Lesnar, the same guy that Mir beat, in more time than it took Mir o defeat him then they can sell Randy as the underdog)

What can Mir do to Nog? Mir likes going for the knee/ankle locks. Nog was beaten with a knee lock by Ricco "Sauve" in the Abu Dhabi submission fighting tournament. In the semi-final match of Pride's Open Weight Grand Prix Nog and Barnett had each other in some sort of leg lock to close out the match. What does this all mean - jack shit.
But maybe, just maybe if Mir has any sort of chance it might be catching Nog in an ankle or knee lock.
That said, I still voted Lesnar/Nog

Best case scenario
Nog UDs Mir Lesnar UDs Randy
Nog Subs Lesnar
CC Beats Overeem, then UFC resigns him CC destroys Randy then gets to fight Nog for Undisputed UFC HW title!!!!
CC UDs Nog to make a superfight of Fedor Emelianenko vs Mirko Filipovic 2!!!
I can dream cant i?
