So I thought of a little fun ideas that you can get involved with. You need to select body parts of different fighters, to try and make the ultimate fighter. So, for example, for the right hand, I'd have Junior Dos Santos', due to the sheer knockout power. Here's my fighter:

Head: GSP. His head/brain are vital to his performances, due to him being in the right place mentally. He's shown to be cool under pressure, and been able to keep his cool against the elite trash talkers, e.g. Koscheck. Or you could go for someone with a great chin, someone in the mould of Leben.

Heart: Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira. In the past, Big Nog's chin and desire to win was something else, the ability to take the damage but have the heart to keep pressing for the win. And after all being in a coma no less.

Right Hand: Junior Dos Santos. As stated above, his right hand is extraordinary. His right uppercut is feared in the Heavyweight division, and not many people can withstand the power. This was also close, between JDS and Hendo.

Left Hand: Paul Daley. Love him, or hate him, you can't deny that the left hand of "Semtex" is one of the best in MMA. If he can plant it on Diaz's face, maybe it's all she wrote for the Stockton bad boy.

Right Leg: Jose Aldo. The leg kicking master, Aldo has shown on many times how dangerous his right leg, stopping people in their tracks with the juggernaut of a foot.

Left Leg: Mirko 'Cro Cop' Filipovic. There's only one person. Mirko might be past it now, but his left head kick was the most feared move in MMA in his Pride era. Just deadly.

Well, now it's your go. You can use the body parts like I have, and throw in some of your own, hell, I'd love my MMA fighter to have Randy Couture's ears.

Head: GSP. He is always great at sticking to his game plan or changing it depending on the situation.

Reflexes: Anderson Silva. Nuff said.

Heart: Nick Diaz. I don't think we will ever see this guy give up for ANY reason ever...idk if it's heart or stubbornness but it seems to be working for him.

Right Hand: Fedor. He may have gotten older but he still delivers that right from hell. (Honorable mention to Liddell)

Left Hand: Paul Daley.....I can't really think of anyone else who has a noteworthy left hook -shrug-.

Both Legs: Aldo. Man the cross over from soccer really paid off because their is just so much power whenever he hits you with either of his lower extremities he chops you down.

Knees: Overeem. I have never felt bad for someone watching mma until i saw Fujita get floored by that huge knee. Yikes.

Head - GSP. He gets a game plan, and sticks to it. Nothing will change that short of KO'ing or submitting him.

Heart - Kazushi Sakuraba. Speaks for himself. He will never ever quit no matter how badly you beat him. Been in more wars and been outmatched yet continued to fight more times than anyone I can think of.

Right Hand - Dan Henderson. Hits like a truck.

Left Hand - Paul Daley. Perfect left hook.

Both Legs - BJ Penn. Not for kicks, but for flexibility in grappling.

Elbows - Jon Jones.

Knee's (even though I've already chosen legs, why not eh) - Anderson Silva.

Head: GSP- Gameplans and is an extremely intelligent fighter. Trains hard. all around very intelligent in his career.

Heart: Urijah Faber- The guy went to a decision with Mike Brown with a broken hand and dislocated fingers on the other hand. He also got the snot beat out of him by Aldo, limped back to his corner, and kept coming back for more.

Right Hand Hendo- Need I really explain?

Left Hand Paul Daley- See Hendo's explanation.

Legs Cro Cop- Right leg hospital, left leg cemetary.

Knees Overeem- The guy has very good technique and humongous power.
.
Wrestling - GSP- The guy times takedowns like nobody else.

Striking Alistair Overeem- The man is quick, powerful, technical, and extrememly powerful.

Grappling Demian Maia- He tools other blackbets on the ground.
.
Speed Faber- Lightning quick.

Power Shane Carwin- Look at his fights!

Strength Lesnar- The guy is probably bigger than half of the trucks in the parking lot.

Cardio Faber- I have never seen him tired.

If there is one fighters body I could have as my own it would be Overeems. 6"5, 265 of ripped, lean, explosive muscle. If only I was 3 inches taller I would look to bulk up to the HW limit, instead I am cursed to stay at around 220 so my 6"2 frame can make it down to 205.

A bit of time has passed so I thought I'd bring it up again. Here's my revised list;

Head: Roy Nelson. This last year has shown that man can take serious punishment and give it back. The amount of knees Werdum gave him and right hands he recieved from JDS are enough to cave a mere mortal's face in, not 'Big Country's' however.

Right Leg: Edson Barboza. Now, I knew going into his last fight that he was considered quite the phenom with his pulverising leg kicks. His finish of Terry Etim solidified my opinion, and he takes the right leg slot from Aldo, who in turns the left leg slot from Cro Cop.
