If Celtic Fan wants this to be like we all have our own promotions, less than 20 fighters means we can't even put together one PPV, let alone several. If it is more like the IFL, where we each have teams, I think we can stop whenever. </div> I was thinking more of creating our own organizations where you have to build a promotion that ppl will go see. With that in mind, you're building up a roster to hold a first fight card and to look long term as well and be able to build to potential match ups. Kinda like Big Frame having Kimbo and Brock Lesnar. I'm sure hard core and casual fans would want to see that fight for different reasons but it would sell big. Now do you do that in your first fight card ever? or do you let them get a couple more fights and then sell it? Well since he has Rampage and Randy Couture who can both head line the first fight card, he could go that way. I'd love to do 20-22 rounds so we could potentially show 10-11 potential match ups for your orgs first card. Comes down to if everyone wants to continue or not. We're going at a good clip, I'm a draft nerd so I'm always willing to keep going

ah well, I'll have to take the guy who's creeping up everyone's top 10 LW rankings with big wins over Dida Amare and just had a potential Fight of the Year match with Joachim Hansen Eddie Alvarez!! He's 14-1 with the majority of his matches being at 170. He's dropped down to 155 and has looked great so far. Next up #1 LW Shinya Aoki and possibly Kawarji... both on the same night!

For my pick, I'm taking the guy who gave Urijah Faber his only loss Tyson Griffin!! This guy is under the radar right now but he puts on great fights and should be contending for the UFC LW belt soon IMO.

I know it's helping me </div> I'm a heavyweight on a middleweight frame, and thats as much as I'm going to say. And I thought I was a student of the sport but I have been forced into a lot of research to make my picks, which I hope is the case with everyone.
yeah I've really looked over fighters records to see who exactly their wins and losses were against, cause some guys have good numbers vs so-so opponents and every time they've stepped up in competition..Loss.
Im going to reluctantly select Gabriel Gonzaga to bolster my heavy weight devision. He had 2 bad losses in a row but the quality of his opponents have been high.
I'll take Nick Diaz because of this: and Frank Mir Edit: I said Frank Trigg initially. I really meant Frank Mir. Zae has picked. I will change my pick. If that proves not to be Kosher I will change back.
