July 8th is UFC 61. 62 will be held in August.

Oh shit my bad just lately I have not been satisfied with UFC the last one I purchased was Can vsUSA. Well lets go with Terrel vs Silva winner gets Rich. Have a HW show down for #1 contender. Monson vs Vera.

See, I thought the Pe De Peno Vs Monson was for the No1 slot?

UFC 62: My wish list please Mr White!
Babalu Vs Liddle
Florian Vs Sherk (paper champion match!)
Tanner Vs Loiseau rematch for no1 contender (Silva can wait his turn!)
Pulver Vs Genki Sudo
BJ Penn VS Karo Parysian.


Hmmm, I surpose I'd watch it if was on!

WandAXE 06-30-2006 03:57 PM

Shit I think that would be a fuckn card for your ass. Karo should be number one contender not GSP, wasnt his fault he got injured. Karo I think would handle Hughes, better shot than GsP.

SOUNDS GOOD TO ME I GO WITH THAT CARD....I THINK KARO CAN TAKE PENN!!

Salvy_Mic 06-30-2006 08:26 PM

Karo's already fighting in an August UFC against none other than the widely reviled Diego Sanchez. Don't get me wrong, I'm a TUF fan and I like Diego...but Karo is a local SoCal fighter and I absolutely love his style and aggressiveness. Therefore, I'm taking Karo by armbar.

As for a hypothetical UFC 62 card, Chuck Liddell vs. Renato "Babalu" Sobral is already a sure thing, and Sean Sherk vs. Kenny Florian is almost a sure thing as well.

Here's some other fights I think could happen:
Paul Buentello vs. Marcio Cruz- It looks like the typical striker vs. grappler fight, but Buentello is very well-rounded, of course being a much better striker above all else. Cruz, of course, is a world-class BJJ guy, but I see this fight ending in a fashion similar to the way Trigg vs. Charuto ended back in the day. The winner of this fight heads back towards the front of the line, and by all means, probably has a next fight against Brandon Vera.

David Loiseau vs. David Terrell- Another fight that will help define the middleweight pecking order, and a good return bout for Loiseau after the pounding he took at the hands of Rich Franklin. If it's not either one of these two, then look for someone like Nate Marquardt to fill the void, but rest assured, some combination of Loiseau-Terrell-Marquardt is sure to happen.

Michael Bisping vs. UFC debutante- Expect an easier fight selection for Bisping who is PPV ready and looks like he can put on a good fight any night. A fight similar to Griffin vs. Mahood or Sanchez vs. Gassaway in their own PPV debuts.

Joe Riggs vs. random welterweight- As always, Riggs follows a hard-fought win over mid-level fighters with a quick submission loss to guys on his level or better. He is the epitome of gateway fighter and is always willing to fight anyone, anytime, anywhere, any weight. The UFC seems to be really high on him, and always gives him the chance to redeem himself after a loss, so I see no different here. Perhaps he wishes to take out his TUF frustration on Josh Koscheck, who's next fight will surely be a PPV fight.

Afterwards, look for the usual filler-style prelim fights to debut fighters or find a spot for guys not in anysort of title hunt.

I was almost tempted to put Penn in my card, but I think the more logical choice to place his redemption fight would be at UFC 63 or 64, against the UFN winner of Parisyan/Sanchez. It establishes right away the next contender for whoever wins Hughes/St. Pierre II.

I also expect Mike Swick to follow TUF guys Griffin, Quarry, Leben, Stevenson, and Florian in stepping up to top 10 competition against Evan Tanner. The set-up is already there: the young, hungry, talented, exciting up-and-comer who wants to get to the top against the experienced, reliable, popular, stalwart veteran who's already been at the top and wants to get back.

Don't be surprised to see Bonnar fight a big name here, or Griffin to fight another LHW contendor. As well, I expect to see LWs like Guillard, Fisher, or Hominick to fight Jens Pulver, the former champion to get the next LW title shot.
