First card in Toronto

Underground
1

So now that MMA is approved in Ontario the UFC can hold their much talked about "mega card" at the Rogers Centre. Assuming that they hold it in the spring what would this card look like?

I'm thinking that GSP would headline but against who? Anything less then GPS-Spider would be a let down. Fitch-GSP would not resonate. Maybe GSP-Shields. I wouldnt be surprised if they pushed GSP-Koschek back to have it in TO.

I'd also guess that they will put Lesnar on the card to make it a truly huge event. Assuming Lesnar bests Valasquez then we may have Cigano-Lesnar as the co-headliner.

Wow so anything less than a hypothetical dream match will be "a let down".

And then throw Lesnar in there too. Sure. Just a little co-headliner in Brock/JDS.

Typical Toronto attitude. Center of everything. Keep dreaming bro.

 Not THAT far-fetched considering the first Toronto card will break every live gate record in UFC history... Bro

There is a rumour floating around that GSP vs Koscheck might get pushed back to March and happen at the Rogers Center for the first UFC card in Ontario.

 I wouldnt go so far as to say that anything but GSP-Silva is a let down, but I agree that they will stack the card.  Most likely just like the UFC100 with GSP and Brock co headlining.  I have a feeling this event will take place in March.



This is some of what I will hope to see:



GSP vs Shields

Lesnar vs Dos Santos or Shogun vs Evans

Stout vs Gomi

Cote vs Maia

Hominick vs Lauzon (if Hominick isnt next in line for a title shot in WEC)

Doerkson vs Lawlor - rematch

And the only non Canadian match I will suggest:  Wand vs Sexyama!

mcpeepants232003 - ^ there is no way they push that fight back that far. Especially with Anderson and Shogun out.
Which fight?  Wand is out with surgery too.  Bisping and Akiyama fight in a month anyways, so I figured timing could work out ok.

Any of the GSP rematches (save Koschek) would be a let down for the first Toronto show. Dana has been talking this thing up for 3 years now so ya my hopes are up...bro.
