This one's rather easy for me. Number 1 by a landslide, followed by 3 then 2.

All three cards look great but ultimately it was between card 1 and card 2. I went with card 2 though. The Makdessi vs Stout bout is what gave it that little extra boost. Awesome, awesome fight that makes a lot of sense right now. I'd love to see it.

Thanks for answering, guys. I tried to make match-ups that would be exciting but not too far off from the current ranking of each fighter. I will admit though that I reached out for some of these fights, such as Valesquez/Mir. It wouldn't happen at the moment, but if it did, I'm sure fans would be excited about it. I personally chose card two, because most of the fighters I added to the card are almost always exciting. It had more of the eye catching fights, and if this event really did end up being a PPV I have almost no doubt that it would satisfy both hardcore and mainstream fans.

They are all interesting cards. I would go with card 1, then card 3, but would love to pick a few matches from each card to make one super event. I would love to see Koscheck get KTFO by Ellenberger.
