Default Anderson's next opponent
OK, here's a poll.

Say Anderson only has one fight left. That's it, no more.

Who do you want him to face on his way out the door? Bear in mind, he'll never fight the guys you don't pick in the poll.

...but you should be prepared to answer a follow-up question:

Do you want to see that fight because it's a spectacle, or because you feel the opponent poses the most legitimate threat to Anderson?

He should fight Weidman next.

GSP has Condit to deal with first anyways let alone the whole what weight he or anderson should be fighting at debate that will make this match never happen.

Diaz does not deserve a shot at Anderson at the moment.

I still think if they announce an Anderson fight before GSP/Condit, it'll be against Rashad or depending on how he looks against Stann, Bisping.... Anderson's looking for Superfights, no?

Uhm, maybe i'm misreading this poll but from how i read it the assumption is that this would be Anderson's final fight? Is that correct? If it's his final fight and he will fight no more after it, i voted for GSP. Silva and GSP are both considered either the number 1 or number 2 P4P fighter in the world so why not have them fight? While it wouldnt settle the dispute of who is the best, i think it would be a great fight that would go down in history.

Weidman. I dont care if its his last fight, or the first one on a 10 fight contract, a champion fights the #1 challenger. Else, vacate your belt, and take only what interests you.

I picked GSP. Reason being is I think of all of the choices he has the best chance to beat Silva, although I think Silva would still win.

GSP - if it is Anderson's last fight forever that is.

Allow Anderson an opportunity to cement his legacy as p4p.

If he was to face Weidman for his retirement fight it would just seem lacking for such an amazing career.

I agree that if it was his LAST fight, i'd want to see him face someone like GSP or Jones. So GSP it is.
