This is a question a lot of people ask, "What If the UFC put their best up against (Insert organization name here)'s best?"
I ask myself that question all the time. I know a lot of you do too, so that is why I'm putting together this fantasy card. I'll put the UFC's best against Strikeforce's best, and see who everyone thinks is going to win.
This will need votes to declare the winner, so if nobody votes, nobody wins.
These matchups are made by me,with some help by a few people, and a few comments. So enjoy.
UFC/StrikeForce
Brett Rogers Vs. Shane Carwin
Brett Rogers is 9-0, and is a top contender in Strikeforce's heavyweight division. He recently knocked his opponent Abongo Humphrey out in the second round of their fight. He is also rumored to be taking on Alistair Overeem for the Strikeforce heavyweight championship.
Rogers has a ton of power, but hasn't really faced any top competition.
Shane Carwin is a beast, who recently Knocked Gabriel Gonzaga out at UFC 96. He also has a ton of power, and is on course to fight for UFC's heavyweight title. Carwin has faced sub-par guys as well (other than Gonzaga) but is also in better shape, and looks crisper.
Carwin also has a ton of power and has faced average competition.
Gilbert Melendez Vs. Sean Sherk
Gilbert Melendez just won the interim-lightweight title at Strikeforce:Diaz v.s. Shamrock. He has a record of 15-2, with notable wins over Clay Guida, Gabe Lemley, Rodrigo Damm, and Tetsuji Kato. He is a soild striker, but best known for his ground game.He also has superb conditioning.
Gilbert Melendez is a well rounded fighter.
Sean Sherk is a tough MMA veteran, who has been in his fair share of wars. He also has great conditioning, and is pretty well rounded. He's fought top competition such as BJ Penn, Matt Hughes, Georges St.Pierre, Kenny Florian, Nick Diaz, and Tyson Griffin. Sherk also has an incredible record of 33 wins and only three losses.
Sean Sherk is a well rounded veteran.
Frank Shamrock Vs. Wanderlei Silva
Frank Shamrock is nothing short of a legend in the sport of MMA. He's been fighting for 15 years, and has fought a lot of tough/big name fighters. His record currently stands at 23-10-2, his most recent fight with Nick Diaz ended with Frank being TKO'd in the second round. Shamrock is a submission specialist, with 14 of his 23 wins coming by way of a tap-out.
Frank Shamrock still has some fight left in him, and is a threat to anyone who is standing across the cage.
Wanderlei Silva is also a legend in the sport of MMA, and holds a record of 32 wins and 9 losses. 22 of those wins come by way of knockout. Silva has had numerous legendary wars, and no matter what the outcome has always put on a show.
Wanderlei is a legend with outrageous power, and will always be a game opponent.
Nick Diaz Vs. Michael Bisping
Nick Diaz is a veteran of the sport at age 25, and is a very dangerous and well rounded fighter. He recently TKO'd Frank Shamrock in April, and has 19 wins, 11 by way of knockout. 11 wins by knockout is impressive, but it's even more impressive because Nick Diaz is a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu black belt.
