|  PRIDE's Heavyweights/Fedor/UFC
With news of Aleks E. possibly coming to the UFC it got me thinking...
Do you guys think there's much of a possibility of UFC landing other PRIDE Heavy's in 2007? If Fedor's domination continues, do you think we'll see guys like Cro Cop and Big Nog and others who have (and will) loose to Fedor on more then one occasion move on from PRIDE to UFC/WFA, etc?

Why hang around and be #2 in Pride HW, when you can go to the UFC and be the top dog.

i think it makes sense for aleks to come to UFC since hes not going to get a title shot anytime soon. most fighters fight with the plan of becoming a champion and if aleks is never going to fight fedor, why fight his competition? it makes a lot of sense for him to come to UFC and obliterate the competition. i hope that NSAC can get past his criminal background.

It's a definite possibility. I think the chances will be much greater if Aleks is successful in the UFC. Which I think he will be. Aleks is like the #5 heavyweight in Pride, at best! If HE can be become champion in the UFC, why the hell wouldn’t guys like Nog or Cro-Cop come take a belt they KNOW they can win.

I think its a good possibility. Like was mentioned before... why stay in Pride when you know you have Fedor or CroCop that you'd have to beat first. Of course the pay the fighters get will play a part as well I'm sure. I'd love to see fighters crossing on both sides in the HW and LHW division most.
