I'm just going to go ahead and book the 20 Welterweight Division matchups I want to see.

Championship Fight -
1.) Robbie Lawler(c) vs Tyron Woodley(3) - just to get it out of the way, I don't see the point in wasting a title shot to a guy who's going to retire or sign with Bellator.

2.) #1 Contenders Fight -Rory Macdonald (1) vs Stephen Thompson(8) - Thompson looked good and he should be ready for Rory's comeback fight.

3.) Johny Hendricks(2) vs Nick Diaz(UR) - looks like an easy win for Diaz now that Hendricks is broken down.

4.) Carlos Condit(4) vs Hector Lombard(UR) - It's sort of a dream fight a last hurray of two of the most violent men in MMA.

5.) Demian Maia (5) vs Sérgio Moraes (UR) Moraes is 4-1 and a great BJJ player, Maia is sort of in no man's land

6.) Matt Brown(6) vs Stun Gun (7)II - Matt needs to start knocking off contenders so he can slip into a title match. It's been eight years since they fought last and it was a great fight.

7.) Neil Magny(8) vs Mike Pyle (UR) - assuming Magny loses this could be a great scrap.

8.) Thiago Alves (13) vs Erick Silva (UR) - Another fight that should be pure violence, Silva is going to win one of these fights at some point.

9.) Tarec Saffiedine(10) vs Albert Tumenov (15) good enough Fight Pass main event.

10.) Rick Story (11) vs Patrick Cote(UR), we don't know if Story is the real deal and Cote is climbing again these two might just stand in the middle of the ring and bang for 15 straight minutes.

11.) Kelvin Gastelum (12) vs Warlley Alves(UR) - Alves is 4-0 and a TUF winner as is Gastelum the UFC likes to match up against each other this would be entertaining.

12.) Gunnar Nelson (14) vs Donald Cerrone(UR) - This is likely Cerrone easiest fight and he can talk crap to Conor's training partner.

13.) Jake Ellenberger vs Yoshirio Akiyama - The UFC needs to cut bait on one of these guys

14.) Jorge Masvidal vs Ben Saunders
15.) Court McGee vs Kenny Robertson
16.) Claude Patrick vs Kyle Noke
17.) Colby Covington vs Alex Garcia
18.) Hyun Gyu Lim vs Cezar Ferreira
19.) Tim Means vs Ryan LaFlare
20.) Lorenz Larkin vs Kiichi Kunimoto

I don't expect to see Hendricks in the WW division again, he looked slow and awful. If that wasn't weight cut related then I can't imagine what his problem is.

Don't want to take all the credit away from Thompson, he looked amazing but Hendricks was sooooo sluggish. I'm fine with giving Thompson a title shot after that, who else makes sense? Nobody really.
