Sounds about right. Just like how Fedor sucked when he signed with M-1!

Got a question for my fellow MMA fans.

Which fighter who is currently NOT under contract with Zuffa would you want signed. Let's take Fedor out the the equation since he'd be #1 on everyone's list.

Gomi would be nice obviously.

I wouldn't mind seeing Robbie Lawler back.

Robin Black (but only because I know him. It's this guy who fronts a moderately successful glam rock band in Toronto and has put that on hold to try and get an MMA contract. Among those he trained with are GSP and Sam Stout).

Denis Kang

I agree with Lawler. Actually surprised that he isn't since he's a Hughes guy. Another guy I'd like to see is Arona. Not sure why, but I've always liked him. Barnett wouldn't be too bad either.

I'll wait for a few more of the regulars to post up their thoughts. Then I'll post up mine, I have one guy per division with a few honorable mentions.

Sweet

Hope Serra gets healthy in time.

Lyoto Machida Accepts Offer To Fight Tito Ortiz

I guess that Ortiz / Evans rematch is never going to happen. But this would be a pretty good test for Machida. Tito is nowhere near the fighter he used to be, but he can still put on a good brawl.

This would be a good fight. Even though Tito didn't look great in his last fight he's still a big strong dude who poses a tough matchup for Machida. One way I think of beating Machida is getting him in the clinch and mauling him. Tito is still pretty strong in the clinch and if he gets on top of Machida, Lyoto might have a hard tie.

Hopefully Tito accepts the fight.
