| I know we often do threads of dream fights that never happened so this is alittle different. This thread is for dream fights that did happen but just totally didn't live up to the hype. One that I can think of quick was John jones vs rashad. Which ones do u guys got? | |

Older
Ken Shamrock vs Royce Gracie 2
Ken vs Severn 2
Bas Rutten vs Tsyushi Kosaka - Bas Rutten finally in the UFC! that in itself is a dream, then he looked like shit and the fight was pretty boring

| BJ vs GSP. Too one sided for my taste.
