| I'd wouldn't mind seeing Rashad at MW, yeah he's like 18-1-1at LHW and top 10, but I'd love to see him against Nate, Vitor and then maybe Anderson although that would end badly.
Nate Diaz, I'd like to see him back on 20 lbs of muscle and move up to WW, will it be any easier on him, no, but he looks too skinny at LW.
Anderson full time at LHW | |

| Love Fedro, but he'll never do it, because he doesn't have to, but always wondered.
Did Faber fight Griffin at 155? | |

| BJ Penn due to lack of a real threat. I don't see him ever beating GSP but I think fights against guys like Alves and Kos would be pretty entertaining. He will clown stomp everyone in the UFC LW division. A fight with Aoki someday would atleast give him the #2 guy but I think he would beat him down rather easily personally
Jake Shields down to WW combined with a move to the UFC
Anderson up to LHW provided that he beats Vitor
Faber/Aldo up to 155 | |

| Yeah Sheilds belongs at WW, think he was just fighting at 185 out of lack of challengers at WW and 185 not being strong at the time, with Nick being able to step in. | |

| Nate Diaz has said that he eventually will move up to WW, but probably not anytime soon. He also said he would never fight Bj Penn for the belt out of respect for him since he and nick have trained with Bj recently. But he said he thinks he has a better shot at winning the lw belt after Bj leaves the division then to move up to ww.
I think Tyson Griffin should move down to 145 just to add more depth to that division. Jake Shields to 170 but i understand why he did move up but he doesn't belong there. | |

| AA way too big for LHW. His body type makes people think he's a large LHW type HW ala Fedor and Couture, but look how huge he was compared to Fedor.
Tyson I don't think could ever get back down to 145. I want all the 45'rs to stay where they are, but I'd like a couple UFC LW's to go down there, specifically Edgar. | |

| Im def on the Nate should move up bandwagon.
Might be a little too late but I'd like to see Cro Cop take a shot at 205.
Soku should try shedding some muscle drop to 185 and see if that helps his power and stamina.
SF hwy Abongo Humpries looked way small, but fairly descent vs Big Brett, hasnt fought since, but he is featured on SF's site, but I think he may be better off moving down.
GSP up just to see him fight Spider.
Spider up to see him fight Rua, win or lose in the Machida rematch it's worth it. And of coarse if Fedor does come to the UFC Spider vs Fedor would be epic. | |

| Uh, Rumble to MW comes to mind? Maybe you guys are talking about Big name guys? Lol'd at thinking of a skinny and ripped Fedor at 205. | |

| Imagine how fast Fedor would be at LHW? There is always the risk that against LHW's he'd be more normal in his speed due to not fighting big oafs like Tim and Rogers, but I still think he is fast enough to compete with the most elite LHW's. | |

Scary to think what one of Fedor's big overhand rights would do to a LHW. I'd foresee lots of dude's laid out twitching. | |

| I would like to see Thiago Alves make the healthier move to MW. I would like to see Tyson Griffin move to FW, I would love to see a rematch with Faber(me and Bigs have talked about this a couple times). I would like to see Torres put on 10lbs and move up to FW. I would like to see Rampage at HW. He could get up to 240 easy. | |

| I would like to see Faber go down. He isn't to tall but plenty wide. | |
