Shogun dominates him IMO....I think he could probably beat everyone at 205 in the UFC, but he would certainly have some good fights......He needs to adapt to the cage though

An interesting point that I had not even thought of yet brought up by Josh Gross' article over at Sports Illustrated.com

This is a very intersting thing to keep our eye on. I think everyone just figured that a BJ / GSP fight would end up involving the welterweight title and then would be a five round affair. What do ya'll think?

Dana said if they fight in December it will be for the WW title. BJ's conquest is to hold multiple titles. I have no doubt that if he beats St. Pierre, which I think he will, he'll relinquish his LW belt and fight at 170. BJ typically prefers to fight better competition and there isn't much competition for him at 155 in the UFC. Now, if the UFC signs Hansen, Gomi, JZ Cavalcante, etc. then the analysis could change.

I know Big and Lil Nog have tremendous boxing skills but look at Brocks head. It is unhuman. Sure everyone has that little button that when it gets popped you go down. But beside that Nog has shown time and time again he goes into a fight clean he comes out busted up. I am not trying to diminish Nog's abilities at all. I say again Nog beats Brock.

Just saying if Brock can land a punch it could be dangerous for Nog or any fighter really. Twice now in his two UFC fights first punch knockdowns. One fight he got stupid and over excited. The second he was a bit smarter and took his time. Still ran at Heath like a retard going for candy and a shiny penny but he stayed calm and fought a decent fight for his skill level.

As far as Shogun vs. Rampage...I would go with Shogun simply on a mental level. Rampage booting Juanito and Shogun still mingling with the ChuteBox boys Shogun has the edge. Power wise it depends on Shogun's knee holding up. Rampage is a good out of nowhere power man but Shogun can handle him again.

Fedor vs. Arlovski is that official or still no opponent for Fedor. Man I love watching that man fight.

fedor is out(broke his hand on zulu's skull and has had problems ever since), so barnett and arlovski are fighting for the honor to get beat by fedor later on.

Thank you and no, you aren't mistaken. I would love to see Minotauro catch Brock in an anaconda choke if they fight (although it would be tough considering he has no neck)
