    Damn, this sounds like its gonna be a dope show. For sure, all the Couture vs Liddell fights will be voted in and Bonnar vs Griffin I. Some that I would vote for are GSP vs Fitch, Hughes vs Penn II,Wanderlei Silva vs Chuck Liddell, and GSP vs Penn II. I don't know if fans will vote this one in but one of my favourite fights in recent memory was Jason Macdonald vs Demian Maia, it was such an exciting ground fight, again, I dont know if it'll qualify for the 100 greatest fights though, it wasnt very significant.

    Liddell vs. Wanderlei better make it.

    I bet Griffin/Bonnar I is #1. That match has often been referred to as the one that put MMA, mainly the UFC, on the map.

    I think Rampage vs Chuck will make the cut. That was basically the beginning of the end for Chuck's Career.
