The current LW title picture.

I post this because while replying to the G Sot Vs. post, I'd like to know what u guys think of I believe the LW title pic will look in the next few months, or at least how it should.

 

Now as for the top, at 118 I believe Bj and KenFlo will be victorious. The winner of Sherk/Dunham should face the winner of the next G sot fight. Sotiropolous should face Sam Stout, who I think should not be left out totally, and IMO, it would be G-sot Vs. Sherk if sherk doesn't get tapped out by dunham. Guida's next opponent should be Gomi. It would be a good fight. After all this, I think that a title shot would go to the winner of Sherk Vs. Guida, which was scheduled a few months back, but Sherk got "injured", again. Since BJ's first defense would likely be against KenFlo if both were victorious at 118, I believe the winner of Guida/Sherk, if they were to get that far, would face the winner of BJ/KenFlo 2 for the title, who I believe would be BJ again (and I like KenFlo). At the end, I believe that the last title shot for the foreseeable future would be Guida Vs. Penn, Penn would win, and shortly after there would be Florian/Sherk 2, which I think Florian would win. That's a lot to read, and it's COMPLETELY speculation, but I am bored, so thank u for reading if u did. What'd u think though, accurate?? Pretty much, BJ would ultimately be on top for a while after 118. And pardon me for ignoring Frank Edgar, but I would love to see Edgar/Maynard 2, and this would start them a bit low, since, at least in my observation, would both be coming off a loss.

Wow you're getting ahead of yourself a bit. Maynard/Florian winner should get the next shot.

 

Afterwards if Dunham beats Sherk he should get someone like stevenson, guida, or florian/maynard loser. Ross Pearson possibly but it's hard to play out who is ranked where in the lightweight division because it has so many more fighters then the other divisions and certain guys are getting knocked off and dropped way out of contention like Tyson Griffin with back to back losses.

 

I'd just like them to throw some exciting fights together like a Pearson vs Stevenson or Stout to see where he really is. Anything really would like to see Edgar and Maynard rematch if they both lose and I believe they will so it would make sense but at the same time they might not want either losing 2 in a row which would have to happen if they rematched after losses at 118 obviously.

Well if Florian Beats (consecutively) Guida, Gomi, and Maynard, he should get the next shot. He has gotten a lot better since he lost to BJ, but Griffin would have to start out a bit further down, maybe against a new guy like Charles Oliveira. Stevenson/Stout would be good though, but is Stevenson healthy??? IDK, but if Edgar AND Maynard aren't able to prove us wrong at 118, than I don't see why they shouldn't face themselves, because if neither can prove us wrong, than they are just as likely to both have back to back losses anyways IMO.

I have a picture of the LW title holder.

just give it time.

 

LOL! You have got to be ******** me one big telegraphed bomb that knocked out an idiot that didnt respect Gomi's sick power one minute into the fight and he's gonna hold the title.

 

Dude Gomi has no gas tank Penn would rape him on the feet and submit him (AGAIN) and Kenny Florian would rape him on the feet and submit him (AGAIN)

 

Edgar would dance circles around that clown until he gassed and guess what?! Submit him in the 3rd round by being smart and not standing right in front of Gomi exchanging when he's fresh.

 

Too be perfectly honest just give Tyson Griffin a rematch and I guarantee you he just avoids Gomi for the 1st round and drags him into the final round and guess what happens then.... he probably submits him.

 

I loved Gomi in Pride but his wild looping telegraphed shots only have a lot of power behind them. Florian made him look like a fool on the feet that fight was like a grown man fighting a teenager... maybe worse.

 

Oh yeah and Nick Diaz would rape and submit him (again) if it ever happens which is possible when Gomi gets a few losses and the pink slip. Gomi looked like he just fought a 30 minute no rounds/no rules fight after THREE minutes with Diaz. It's pathetic for someone to be so gassed before the first round is even over. Gomi's cardio is on Carwin's level... seriously.

Florian/Maynard winner automatically gets the next shot at the title.

To sort through the chaos of the rest of the division we need to see more top contenders fighting eachother. In my own opinion these match ups would show a lot:

Gomi vs the winner of Tibau/Miller. -------------> Winner of these match ups fights for next title shot.

Guida vs the winner of Guillard/Stephens.

G-Sot vs the winner of Sherk/Dunham. -------> Winner of these match ups fights for next title shot.

Griffin vs the winner of Escudero/Oliveira.

Siver vs the winner of Stout/Taylor.

Penn/Edgar loser vs Florian/Maynard loser.

Pearson/Miller winner vs Wiman/Danzig winner.

it is a real stacked division. i would like to see pearson thrown in the mix. g sot also deserves a shot at a top opponent. i think florian will beat maynard for another title fight....

 

Pearson needs a little work but yes hes a bad bastard and will be thrown in!!!

I don't want Pearson tossed in there too early. After the Miller fight he should get another test to see if he can move onto the upper echeleon fighters.
