Fantasy Card: UFC Vs. StrikeForce

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.

Nick Diaz is an extremely well rounded fighter, with a ton of potential.

Michael Bisping is a superstar in the UFC, and is one of the most loved/hated fighters. He is very talented, and has wins over Matt Hamill, Jason Day, and Chris Leben. Some say he is being babied by Dana White and the UFC, but he has a very tough test coming up against Dan Henderson.

Say what you want, but Michael Bisping is a good fighter.

Tito Ortiz Vs. Rashad Evans

Tito Ortiz is another one of those guys you love or hate. He is a pioneer in the sport of MMA, and put the UFC on the map of a lot of people. He has a record of 15-6-1, with the one draw coming from his UFC 73 fight with Rashad Evans.

Tito has recently has back surgery and said he is better than he ever was, so I'm excited to see how he fights in his next match.

Rashad Evans is the UFC light-heavyweight champion. He is undefeated with a record of 13-0-1, again with his draw coming from UFC 73. Rashad is a great wrestler, and recently has been a great striker, with two TKO victories in a row. Rashad is becoming more well rounded as his career goes on, and that is scary.

It's clear Rashad is the favorite now, but these two have unfinished business.

Quinton Jackson Vs. Renato Sobral

Renato Sobral or better known as Babalu is the current Strikeforce light-heavyweight champion. He is also a veteran, with wins over Chael Sonnen, Sokoudjou, Jeremy Horn, and Mauricio Rua. He is submission fighter with a black belt in Brazilian jiu jitsu. He has 32 wins, and a very dangerous ground game.

Quinton Jackson, better known as Rampage is the No. 1 contender in the UFC light-heavyweight division. He is also a veteran, and is extremely popular. He has 30 wins, 14 of which by knockout. He has faced almost every big name 205 pound fighter there is, and he is next in line to fight the winner of UFC 98.

Robbie Lawler Vs. Dan Henderson

Robbie Lawler is a powerful middleweight with a record of 18-4. 15 of his 18 wins are by knockout. He is fighting Jake Shields next in a super fight in June, he has beaten fighters like, Frank Trigg, Scott Smith, Chris Lytle, and Murilo Rua. Lawler is still only 27 years old, and hasn't lost any of his power.

Dan Henderson is a legend, and has competed against the best of the best. He's 24-7 with 10 of those wins coming from a knockout, he is an elite wrestler, and usually grinds his opponents out. Hendo has never been knocked out in his career, which is why I picked this matchup.

Jake Shields Vs. Georges St.Pierre

Jake Shields is mentioned among the best 170 pound fighters in the world. He is a Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt, and has a record of 22-4. He has also beaten top talent such as Carlos Condit, Yushin Okami, and Nick Thompson. Jake has stated he would like to fight in the UFC, let's hope he does.

Georges St.Pierre is a man you can't say enough about. He is as well rounded of a fighter you can get. He is 18-2 with wins over names like Matt Hughes, BJ Penn, Jason Miller, Sean Sherk, Jon Fitch, Matt Serra, Karo Parisyan, Frank Trigg, and Josh Koscheck. He is the blueprint for a MMA fighter. GSP is one of the most well-rounded fighters in MMA.

Anderson Silva Vs. Cung Le

This is a dream fight, both men are devastating strikers. This fight would be a war, both men are lethal on their feet, as well as with their feet (ba-dum*ching*).

Cung Le is a a very accomplished fighter, and boasts an undefeated MMA record. His most recent win is over Frank Shamrock, that win also won him the Strikeforce middleweight championship. He is undefeated in K-1, with a record of 3-0, and he is also undefeated in Sanshou with a record of 17-0.

Cung Le is one of the most feared strikers in MMA.

Anderson Silva is arguably the No. 1 pound for pound fighter in the world. He has nine consecutive wins in the octagon (a UFC record), and is the UFC middleweight champion. He has fought and destroyed everyone that was put in front of him. He is set to face Forrest Griffin at UFC 101.

Anderson Silva IS the most feared striker in MMA. (In my opinion)

Well folks that is it,thank you for reading!

As always, enjoy!
