Who do you want the top guys from Strikeforce to fight in their UFC debut? I'll give my list.
Melendez-Henderson
Mousasi-Franklin
Cormier-JDS
Barnett-Big Country
Healy-Diaz(get Diaz back on track)
Rockhold-Okami
Saffiedene-Fitch
Marquardt-Pierce
Larkin-Munoz
Jacare-Weidman
Kennedy-Belcher
Any top guys I'm forgetting?
Any of these seem like bad matchups?
Yup
I like saff vs hardy
I'd like to see to Rockhold vs Lombard
i like it...
i like it...
Ya I picked JDS for Cormier even tho he wants Mir. I just don't see that fight being competitive.

Pat Healy Vs. Gray MaynardRyan Couture Vs. Ramsey Nijem
Jorge Masvidal Vs. Melvin GuillardKJ Noons Vs. Edson Barboza
Have a couple problems with this list such.
Misaki and Kyle are retired.
Too high of ranked guys for marquardt, Healy, and Noons to be fighting in IMO.
Also Woodley already has his first match setup vs Heiron.
Not sure Santiago or jardine make it back in the UFC either.
My 2 cents but thanks for the input.
