Who wins this UFC 155 and under Super 8 Man Tourney?
 
Faber/Edgar/Cruz/Aldo/Maynard/Penn/Henderson or Torres?

Hypothetically of course, lets say the UFC put together 8 of their best 155 and under fighters and had a tournament, who wins er?

For those who would say that it depends on the match ups, which is true, lets use these match ups for shits n giggles.

Faber/Edgar
Cruz/Aldo
Maynard/Penn
Henderson/Torres

All 3 round fights, except for the Finale, who wins er????

My self Id say:

Edgar>Faber by Decison
Aldo>Cruz by KO
Maynard>Penn by Decision.
Torres>Henderson KO or Decision

Aldo>Edgar by Decision or TKO via Leg kicks.
Maynard>Torres by Decision

Leaving Aldo>Maynard by KO or TKO in RD 4

Thoughts?

alright since im stoned and bored ill try it out

Edgar>Faber via Decision
Aldo>Cruz via KO Rd 2
Maynard>Penn via Decision (this is a bad matchup for BJ)
Henderson>Torres via TKO Rd 3

Aldo>Edgar via TKO Rd 3 (probably kicking his legs out like he did against faber)
Maynard>Henderson via Decision (bad matchup for Henderson too, Gray would use his superior strength and wrestling to control the entire fight)

Aldo>Maynard via KO Rd 4

but if the matchups were different I could see Edgar, Maynard, Penn, or Henderson winning this too.

Almost exactly how I have it. Maynard is a bad match up for alot of those guys mainly because he is so huge for the weight and his wrestling is top notch. But I still say Aldo take er all home, using foot work and kicks.

Didnt even think, I should have added a poll, any help mods??

i would take penn over maynard and henderson over torres, then penn over henderson leaving penn vs aldo and i take penn to win it all. i think penn beats everyone on this list except edgar, i just think edgars speedy in and out wrestling style is penns cryptonite, as long as he avoids edgar penn wins it all....IMHO of course

this would be an awesome tournament that i would give my left nut to see!!! talk about some dream matches!

lol I love how even in an 8-man tourney, it STILL ends with BJ going up against his kryptonite in Edgar. BTW, what strategy do you think Edgar would use to decision Aldo? Speed's a push, standup goes to Aldo, maybe wrestling advantage top Edgar. Thoughts?

I won't go through this fight by fight, but even though Penn lost his 155 title, I'd say he could win that tournament. In fact, I'd say he has the best chance of all those listed.

Jose Aldo wins it.

TheDoucheyWun 11-28-2010 12:31 PM

Aldo/Penn are your favorites here, but none you guys see the biggest of them Maynard humpping his way through this 8 man orgy?
