<p><b>New page</b></p><div>FC 78 is quickly approaching and it's really main event match-up between Rashad Evans and Michael Bisping made me think about fighters who could cut weight to drop to a lower [http://www.ufcweightclasses.org/ ufc weight classes] In that spirit I am going to discuss four UFC fighters who could be well served by dropping weight and fighting below their current class.<br />
<br />
Allow me to start at the top, the UFC heavyweight division. You will find a couple of UFC heavyweights who could make 205lbs, remember Randy Couture fought as a light heavyweight for a while, that he even held the light heavyweight title. There is really only one UFC heavyweight who I want to discuss dropping weight. Brandon "The Truth" Vera just dropped a three round decision to former UFC heavyweight champion Tim Sylvia. Brandon didn't loose this match due to his skill-set. That he lost as a result of Tim's size. Tim pushed Vera up against the fence and used his weight to close the length, essentially negating Vera's superior kicking game. If Brandon Vera dropped down to 205lbs Personally i think he would be competing on an even playing field and would probably quickly move into title contention.<br />
<br />
The UFC light heavyweight division has got the most of guys who must look into dropping weight. There are three that I'd like to discuss, they are Rashad Evans, Michael Bisping and Dan Henderson. You'll note that Bisping and Evans would be the main event fighters at UFC 78. These two fighters are undefeated at light heavyweight.<br />
<br />
Michael Bisping is an outstanding fighter, a good striker by having an adequate ground game. But his recent fight with Matt Hamill suggests that they can be manhandled by a stronger opponent. Bisping mostly stayed on the outside in this fight and let Hamill get a handle on the action. I believe this is basically because he was steering clear of Hamill's strength... with is wrestling, and physical strength. We all remember on the Ultimate Fighter when Hamill was overwhelming one other fighters with his physical strength, a move to 185lbs would not only put him in to title contention, but would allow Bisping to be stronger than other opponents in that [http://www.ufcweightclasses.org/ mma weight classes].<br />
<br />
Rashad Evans has already dropped a [http://www.ufcweightclasses.org/ weight classes]. Rashad competed at heavyweight on the Ultimate Fighter TELEVISION series and did very well, winning his division, but his recent bout with Tito Ortiz showed that Rashad, despite his superior wrestling skills is a small light heavyweight. Rashad could have no problems matching strength with Bisping at UFC 78, but when fighting the more expensive light heavyweights like Forrest Griffin, Wanderlei Silva and Tito Ortiz he will get manhandled, essentially negating his wrestling advantage. A move to 185lbs may likely make Rashad an immediate title contender.</div>Tue, 03 Apr 2012 11:49:28 GMTEversoleTownes232http://beta.aalf.org/wiki/index.php?title=Talk:EversoleTownes232
