What is the one fight you want to see this year above any other. The only rules I ask is

1.) It can't be a fight that has been booked.

2.) It has to be somewhat realistic, so don't say BJ Penn vs Roy Nelson because while that fight is awesome it's not going to happen.

edit to add screwed up the thread title

My speculations...

If Conor doesn't beat RDA, he'll be in a tough spot. He won't be fulfilling his dream of conquering two belts, and he may very well have to let go of his FW belt for being impossible to make that weight again, specially if the new weigh cut policy issued by CSAC spreads to the other commissions.

In that scenario, he may have to work his way up again at the LW division.

If Aldo fights Edgar for the FW next, which is what looks like is happening next, either Aldo or Edgar could go up to LW as FW Champions to challenge McGregor in a superfight, if he is the Champion.

If he is not the Champion, Aldo will like to go up in weight just to challenge him anyway and then come back to his division to avoid a clash with RDA.

ATM, it would be Luke vs Weidman II.

Faber vs TJ fight build up.

Condit vs Brown.

Definitely ex-lhw champ vs a HW.

Finally the main card on Feb. 27th of course!

For me it's these 3.

Conor vs RDA because it's gonna be awesome for so many reasons no matter what happens

Hendricks vs Lawler 3 to finally get a definitive answer. I felt Johny won both matches but it could be argued that their actual wins were flip flopped.

Jon JonesXL vs DC 2. Well... you know why.

After last night, I doubt you will ever get to see that fight, or even Hendricks at WW.

That would be a fantastic fight. I feel like Wonderboy deserves the shot against Lawler, though. Besides, who else is gonna fight Lawler now? The timing will probably work well, too. Lawler is healing from a war but Thompson got punched all of once.
