I question AO's heart. Whenever he's looked good, he's been able to bully someone. When he's looked bad, it's because he's tentative or is faced with aggression. Personally, I don't see him beating Cormier more than 2 or 3 times out of 10. Quote:

dont know about DC vs. AO.... It would all depend on AO's TDD... AO also has some good size on him.
Id take AO now, he knock him out with a knee or hook...
I still have yet to see how AO all of the sudden got elite TDD like some claim, but I havent seen him get taken down easily like he has in the past either, so the jury is still out on that issue... DC would be the perfect test for AO, and vise versa.

rh | I was just pointing out that that match has already happened, not to mention that fight doesn't make to much sense right now, amirite?

I think it makes about as much sense as anyone else they'd give him. Hunt is on a streak--has more wins in the UFC than AO does--and as every bit of a talented striker as AO, but with a much better chin; Mark has a great chance to beat him.
Hunt doesn't have a lot of cache in terms of draw, but beating him could look good for AO; conversely, a win for Mark would look GREAT for him and propel him into the next level in terms of reconition for the unwashed masses.

rh | I didn't see what's his name put the two in there, anyways I agree Hunt has the skills to win. But as far as rankings go Hunt needs a couple wins to get to the top. His next opponent should be top 15. I just don't think he's earned a rematch quite yet. It was nice when he beasted AO to the ground, never seen that anywhere else.

rh | They may be unwashed, but they cover it up by applying copious amounts of Axe Body Spray.
Sound familiar?

So now he's a confirmed cheater that alone should drop his rankings down plus history of the two I say great match to make. Hell it's the UFC what are rankings
