You forgot Anderson Silva and David Terrell, and if you got Crow on there might as well thrown Evan Tanner on it too. Chael Sonnen is at 185, he could be on there.
Now see compare the UFC polls to the actual betting odds, the UFC polls are actually much closer. Well, aside from the blowout for Horn-Sonnen and Fisher-Wiman.

I was gonna say Anderson Silva, but he wasn't there. Horn most likely won't fight Franklin because of their friendship, or so Franklin said in the past. Money talks in most cases though.

I hope money runs its' mouth til that fight is booked because after Anderson Silva, Franklin-Horn is the only fight that excites me at Middleweight. I mean I'll definitely love watching Leben, Swick, etc. get thrown to the wolf, but I mean exciting in terms of competitiveness.

From what I hear he didn't like fighting at 205 too much. But now that Randy's gone and if Chuck beats Babalu again and doesn't have any real competition that could change things. As long as both are champs of their respective weight class I don't think we'll see it for awhile.

I think UFC needs to do an open weight tournament to find out who truly is the best pound for pound fighter. On another topic, the fights I wanna see are: Lidell vs. Franklin, Hughes vs. Penn, Ortiz vs. Shamrock, Ortiz vs. Griffin, Griffin vs. Bonnar, GSP vs. Sanchaz, Shanchaz vs. Hughes, Lidell vs. Hughes, Frank Shamrock vs. Franklin.
