    Who should THE REEM fight first when he comes to the UFC?

    I like when they go instant title unification, but I don't see that happening because of timing, when the lineal MMA HW champ comes to the UFC I would like to see him fight Frank Mir, this goes right a long with classic zuffa match making plus I agree with it

    Mir is a name, he can sell a fight, the fans know him, probably throw in a couple death threats and talk about the high caliber of UFC comp he has faced compared to THE REEM and his cast of cans

    Plus, wheh THE REEM beats him, they can just say 'its Frank Mir, he should beat him!', and the off chance THE REEM slips on a bananna peel in the middle of the cage and Mir wins we can here 'lololol, UFC rules!'

    Would be a nice lead in for a mega HW fight between the number 1 and 2 ranked HW's in the world after Cain/JDS

    the loser of Cain/JDS if they want to give him a big push right away or Brendan Schaub could be a possibility if he beats Big Nog

      Mir is the way to go.

      Then the Cain/JDS winner.

        The obvious answer is Lesnar. I don't know what you guys are thinking with Muuur.

          We are talking about who he should 'fight', not sign a fight, put on a show and than cancel

          Brock is retired

            He's not retired, he has one or two more losses in him. He's a prize fighter, he isn't going to leave millions on the table.

            Lesnar is the only UFC fighter that I think Overeem is a virtual lock to beat.

              Hell no to Mir. I don't want him in the title picture again....ever.

              Give him Lesnar or Schaub to showcase, then give the title shot.

                Mir isn't going to beat Overeem and with Lesnar on the sidelines, Mir is the only one who can talk it up like a champ.

                  Mir can definitely beat Overeem.

                    thats what I'm saying, THE REEM should highlight reel KO Mir and Mir can hype a fight better than any other HW, Brock can't even talk like Mir

                    Schuab is a goof, nothing exciting about that match up, Kongo? Nelson? Who else? Maybe Carwin but he can only mumble

                    Mir is a perfect fight for THE REEM to enter the UFC

                        Mir can take Overeem down and tool him. Overeem has the suspect gas tank, plus his standup showed tons of holes vs Werdum, who won multiple exchanges with him. Mir is a much better stand up fighter than Werdum.

                        Overeem looks great against out of shape bums on 10 days notice, and aging cans. You guys are nuts if you think he would easily roll through a guy like Mir. That fight can go either way.

                          Mir is taking him down?

                            Mir is essentially with Werdum with better standup & wrestling. That is a bad matchup.

                              The fight to make is Lesnar. Two guys who are probably frauds, its a win/win for UFC, because one beating the other will come across as a huge win and you have an instant title contender. Both guys are also one loss away from irrelevence, because Brock has looked bad recently, and no one belives in Overeem after that disasterous Werdum debacle.
