I wouldn't say any heavyweight has a really good chance against Couture (everyone has a punchers/kickers chance), but between the half dozen or so top contenders, we could see some amazing matchups. I just hope Couture makes it to Fedor at least before he throws in the towel again, one last run through the heavyweights until he loses, maybe a rematch, then that'll be it I think.

Winners face each other, Winner faces Randy Couture. He doesn't have to fight again for what, 6 months? Do it Zuffa, it's fair, and what a money maker. I would imagine Sylvia can have Vera's place if he beats him, and Kongo for Cro Cop. How about Arlovski vs. Vera/ Cro Cop vs. Noguiera. Winners face each other, Winner faces Randy Couture.

It could be held over 3 or 4 events, then we would see who deserves it. You could have Noguiera, Cro-Cop, Barnett, Monson, Sylvia, Vera, Kongo, or any other heavyweight involved. I think the reason why Barnett should be considered a contender is  the UFC has to respect the Pride fighting ratings of fighters and Barnett has been considered not only by Pride and myself, but the world of MMA to be one of the top heavys. He has beaten Noguiera before you know.  I think maybe an eight man tounament to find the next challenger for Randy would be sweet.
