|  Karo Parisyan vs. Royce Gracie
The UFC WW division is wide open right now and here's what I'd do if I was in charge.
After GSP beats Serra ,I'd give Deigo Sanchez a title shot.It'd be a nice little tune up fight for GSP and it would sell tickets.On the same card I'd have a number on contenders fight between Hughes and Penn.Than on the same card or an upsoming fight night I'd have Karo fight Royce.If Karo wins he gets next title shot after the winner of Hughes/Penn ,but if Royce wins ,than he gets the rematch against Hughes that he's been wanting.I'd also throw Koscheck and Diaz together on a fight night for future title considerations.
((This is assuming Diego beats Riggs and Karo beats Fickett))
I think Karo would take this.He use his amazing Judo techinques to maintain good position and would fuck Royce up with some bad ass throws.

Royce doesn't stand a chance. Karo's submission defense is great. if im wrong someone correct me, but im pretty sure Karo has never been submitted in mma.
Royce won't be able to do anything.

Karo would bust up Royce's body pretty bad with judo throws.

i taught my cousins 7 year old son how to do a Uchi-Mata throw a while ago.
a few days ago he got into a small scuffle with a kid from an upper class. he executed the throw fairly well from what he tells me...problem is he's gonna be in detention for a while and im in trouble for teaching the kid mma moves.
good thing he forgot how to go in clinch and throw the knees.

Royce won't be able to do anything. | I don't think he's ever had to fight against someone as good as Royce. I don't think Karo would have lasted half as long as Royce did against Hughes.

Karo lasted to a decision when he fought against Sean Sherk, and didn't do too bad against Georges St. Pierre. No disrespect to the legend Royce, but Sherk's strenght would be too much for him, as well as the skills GSP posseses. i dont like comparing like this, but it's logically makes sense.

I think this match up should have been Royce's first match up before Hughes. And as a side note: that was a different GSP. There is now a GSP before Hughes and after Hughes, and they are not to be confused.

GSP was destroying Hughes in their first fight. GSP has always been an incredible fighter. go back and watch the first fight.

I'm a huge GSP fan and thought he should have been able to win the first fight, but I think he is that more devastating since then. I think his skill has even improved, but I think his mentality is much more fierce then it was before, "mercy is for the week!" And not to take anything away from Karo, but I think for anyone even GSP, fighting for the first time in pro MMA can be kind of intimidating, which I think played a factor for that fight.

Royce fairly pretty well against Yoshida who is a bigger Judo practitioner and won a Gold Medal in Judo. It would be a great fight but I wouldn't count Royce out of it. But Karo is only Judo guy to really succeed without his Gi and is more well rounded then the rest of the judo guys.
