I wouldn't mind seeing Frank Shamrock back (even though that will never happen) If he shows well against Baroni.

Hendo would hardly get "whooped" in the UFC as you put it though.

He's lost 4 in a row, but all to pretty good fighters, I just don't see a need for him to be back in the UFC until he mounts some wins against some proven opponents. He's getting up there in age too, so he might not be fighting too much longer.

In heavywheight it would have to be Herring(or if they had to be signed by UFC prior Barnett) LHW I would have to go w/ Rampage(or if already signed Salaverry) MW Frank Shamrock. WW I would say Matt Serra but he was recently brought back. Lw I would go w/ Duane the Bang Ludwig, he doesnt have the greatest ground game but he pulled the crane on a guy in an MMA fight and the dude was to scared to attack. He just kinda huddled against the cage hoping Duane would not hit him anymore.  | |
