I'd like to see AA vs Mir. We would get to see what Mir is really made of. AA vs Vera would be a great fight.

OK, here's my scenario. The winner of Mir vs Vera should face Arlovski. The looser faces Kongo. Then the winners in those two fights (AA vs Winner, Kongo vs Looser) square-off, and the winner of that bout get's the title shot. That's the only logical bracket I can think of. What do ya think?

I agree about Kongo, but who in the hell are the "big names"? AA, there's one, Vera, well, he IMO, needs to fight 1 or 2 more "big names" and then he gets his shot. And then who? I honestly feel that the HW division is so weak, you can't really say that there are 3 big names for Kongo to fight. Please don't say Mir, he still needs to fight 2 or 3 big names (IMO) and show dominance (or at least be in shape) to be taken seriously. Can't wait to read the replies.

How about the winner of Vera/Mir gets the next shot. The loser between Silvia/Munson gets Kongo next.

I don't think Mir or Vera are ready for a shot. They both need to prove themselves more. Mir is a proven champion, but he's looked terrible in his comeback fights. UFC doesn't need to rush a HW fight. Don't push a guy to the top just because it's a weak field. They need to take their time, find the right contender, then set up a bout. But hey, that's my opinion.

How about Kongo beats a good fighter first. Vera WILL be the next champ. I guarantee it.

I want to see Vera take on AA. If Vera take AA, then he should get that title shot.
