Since both CCB and UK cant take LHW I am going to make my selection.

Lyoto Machida- He may be boring, but I think he has the talent to beat anyone in the division. As a Shogun fan, I was pissed when it was rumored they were fighting because Lyoto's style is a ***** for anyone.

[fenikz]

since everyone is done with the LW's besides me ill select

Joachim "Hellboy" Hansen
http://www.cdn.sherdog.com/_images/pictures/6/5711.jpg

[UKfan]

Kazuo Misaki MW

[ccB]

http://www.shootersmma.com/Images/martin_kampmann.jpg

MW Martin Kampmann


Young, Versatile, fighter. Was initially supposed to fight Rich Franklin instead of Yushin Okami but couldnt because of injury. I expect to see big things out of him in the future. Hasnt had fights against top level competition but does have significant wins over Andrew McFedres (Milletich Fighter) and Thales Leites (who I almost selected)

[fenikz]

who is OTC?
