Next New Champ?

[MichaelStanton2010]

Who will be the next to lose a title fight(Lesnar, Silva, GSP, Machida, Penn,) and who do you think will strip them of their belt?

 

[Jastermereel]

Well Machida has the toughest next opponent, so most likely of those guys, him.

I'm going to say Cain is the HW Champ in 2011,i see Carwin beating Mir and Lesnar beating Carwin.Setting up Cain v/s Lesnar,which i think Cain will win.

I think Cain has the least chance of beating Brock. Brock is better at all of Cain's strengths. Not a good match up for Cain.

Lightweight - George Sotiropolous (yes, I'm serious)

Welterweight - Noone, unless Thiago Alves get's a rematch sometime and scores a KO

Middleweight - Nate Marquardt

Light HW - Jon Jones

HW - Noone, as much I want to see Brock fall

The Red is just my opinion.

Lightweight - George Sotiropolous (yes, I'm serious) The only way I see Penn losing any time soon is if he gets lazy/bored again. After the demolition of Deigo that's the only way he'll lose.

Welterweight - Noone, unless Thiago Alves get's a rematch sometime and scores a KO Agreed. I can't see anyone beating GSP now. Unlike Penn and Silva he just doesn't seem to get bored or complaisant

Middleweight - Nate Marquardt I don't see anyone beating Silva anytime soon. Much like Penn the only way he gets beat is if he's bored showboats then gets caught.

Light HW - Jon Jones Maybe. If by the time he's ready and the current LHW champ is old and declining Shogun/Machida or whoever I can see this. We don't know what he can do on the ground yet.

HW - Noone, as much I want to see Brock fall Agreed. He's just too big, too fast and too powerful. It seems that no matter who you match up with him he has the skills to neutralize them.

I need to see Brock more to say he the next big thing.Yes, he has the ability,no doubt.Lesnar has showned greatness and looked average at times.

He looked really good against Mir in the 2nd meeting and the 1st meeting also before he made a rookie mistake,he looked average against Herring.He dropped him with that big righthand and couldn't finish him and 2 times times during that fight Herring was able to get back to his feet.

He beat Couture,but he was losing that fight before he landed that punch and he was tired in that fight.I agree he has all the tools to be the champion for awile.

Carwin hasn't had to show his wrestling yet,it might be better then we think,Cain is in GREAT shape and i believe he is in better condition then Lesnar[as in lasting longer if needed].I believe Cain can take Lesnar down,its there where i have questions about keeping him there or not.

Santos is the sleeper of the group,he could possibly surprise some people.

I should have clarified my Middleweight pick.

He won't beat Silva, but rather Silva will eventually vacate his title out of boredom/retirement/moving classes.

Marquardt is the best Middleweight behind him, IMO, despite the off-performance against Sonnen.

 

[MojoDan]

Big Marquardt fan here. I just want to see Maia get Silva to the ground in their fight. I think he is the best on the ground in the entire sport.

I LOVE Machida.

I love that he's undefeated......technically. I love his style, I love his demeanor, I love everything about him. Hell, he's even cute.

But I WOULD NOT be upset in the slightest of the ******* Shogun beat him for the title.

And I think I'll pick Shogun over Machida in their rematch. First time I ever picked against Machida was when he fought Shogun, and I think Shogun won that fight.

I'll pick Shogun again, and I hope he wins.....with the Ninja in his corner!
