year?
Maybe FedorSilva, but otherwise the UFC hasn't done much.
And does cost $45 (455 in HD) bucks..
I'm excited...
They're fighting? When 
No
I am way more interested in Bigfoot/Cormier.
and yeah, not even close to biggest HW fight of the year.
If Sergei wins he becomes the linear King of Anime. The implications are massive.
mcpeepants232003 - yeah clearly this is bigger than CAin/JDS. #1 vs #2 means nothing compared to a guy not in the top ten and a guy not in the top 5.
Personally I don't even think it's the best hw fight on the card. Cormier is better than Sergei and Bigfoot is just as good as Barnett.
Both guys are way...way more proven then Cain or JDS.
RKing85 - I am way more interested in Bigfoot/Cormier.

I think Cormier takes it.

Meaning I was much more invested in that match up than this one. Carwin/JDS was the biggest HW fight of 2011.
(Until Cain/JDS)
Barnett can beat every hw on the earth his ground game is second to none but that doesn't mean he can't be beaten.
He's on a different level on the ground if he gets it there he wins

No fucking way.. Because he destroyed Monson?

who cares if they are more proven? Chuck Liddell is more proven than Jon Jones but if he came back and fought Shogun it wouldn't be a bigger fight than Jones/Rashad.
The fact that you are honestly defending Sergei/Barnett as bigger than JDS/Cain is ludicrous. Yeah #7 vs #15 is better than #1 vs #2 because of what the fact they used to fight in Pride?
Btw SERgei has 0 top ten wins and Barnetts best win in the last 5 years is Jeff Monson or Brett Rogers.
Proven is why you prefer UFC TO M-1...
CARWIN v DOS SANTOS! i guess you guys forgot...(biggest so far)
biggest for me, but prob not as relevant to the HW rankings (who cares?)
i just wish neither guy had to lose. i think id rather see:
barnett v bigfoot
kharitonov v cormier
for the semi-finals.
No, but it's still gonna be a great fight, the whole card should be really cool.
I think Barnett could beat any HW on the planet on any given day.

Good post. The two upcoming strikeforce fights are big time fights though. For sure.
All great fights.
Biggest HW fights of the year
Cain VS JDS
Fedor VS Hendo
Werdum VS The Reem

Cormier and Barnett make it to the finals.
Kharitonov vs. Barnett is a very interesting fight indeed. I'm really looking forward to this one.
