What fight/s that has been announced are you looking forward to the most?
For me, it's Sonnen/Silva, Werdum/Velasquez and Lawler/Brown. All three should be fireworks.

For me, it's Lawler/Brown and Weidmann/Machida. Dana keeps saying styles make fights, and both of these fights at least on paper, have "war" written all over them. Sonnen/Silva should be pretty good.

caceres/faber intrigues the hell out of me. lombard/stun gun should be fireworks. of course jones/gustafsson whenever jones' side officializes it. conor mcgregor/cole miller in ireland should be downright bananas. im sure if i looked through the next couple cards, i could come up with at least another 10 fights id be hyped to see.

I totally forgot about McGregor/Miller. That one has some bad blood to it as well. Lombard and Stun Gun could either be really good, or a clinch battle that fans cringe about. That's the beauty of having 300+ of the top fighters on the planet. You can't go one card without a matchup you want to see.

I think Woodley/Rory is going to be a great fight and as others have said, Sonnen/Silva, Brown/Lawler and Weidman/Machida should be awesome as well. Looking forward to all of them!!

Woodley/Rory is either going to be a back and forth war or a staring contest for three rounds.

Sonnen/Silva, Brown/Lawler and Weidman/Machida are all great fights. I'm looking forward to Jones/Gustafsson 2 as well - but I'd actually prefer to see Jones against Cormier... Jones/Gustafsson 1 was great, but I think there was a clear winner (even though it was close). Cormier's just been on a roll though and can do it all - it's such an interesting fight.

Gustafson will have a harder time with Jones this time, and as someone who doesn't care too much for how Jones carries himself I think Gustafson is going to have to catch lightning in a bottle to beat Jones. Cormier because of his wrestling and ground control will honestly have the best shot of beating Jones. It is also the most compelling fight out there due to the outright dominance of both guys. Two essentially undefeated fighters for a world title. Who wouldn't pay to see that.

Roy Nelson vs. Mark Hunt. If that fight ends up being anywhere near as awesome as Bigfoot vs. Hunt, I'll be a happy dude.

Nelson vs. Hunt has the potential to be a barnburner. Even though he tends to go to decisions, I'm intrigued to see what Bendo does against Rustam Khalidov. Khalidov is a beast and Bendo needs to be more active to finish in order to win this.
