Fighting Sylvia, and Barnett ( who is a top 5 fighter), would silence that. Couture is obviously moer interested in seeing his Wife getting her Jaw broken and a fight between him and Fedor is seeming more unlikely as each day passes.

I couldn't agree more. Fedor vs. Barnett is the one fight I kept waiting for from Pride that never materialized. Plus, Sylvia vs. Rizzo doesn't really sound like a bad match up to me either. If a title shot is on the line I could see those two really banging it out.

Not me, but it could turn into a nice slugfest for a few minutes, before Aleks wins by decapitation.

Letīt not forget AA is there too, I wouldnīt mind seeing AA vs. Fedor or AA vs. Barnett either. Affliction can make some very nice matchups with the HW roster they got right now. I hope they can pick up some more quality fighters in the next few months.

I think a little too much faith is placed in AA. He isn't the same aggressive fighter he was prior to his last two bouts with Sylvia. You can see how hesitant he was to pull the trigger against Cruz, Werdum and O'Brien. His footwork is just about the only thing that is still there, but it only serves to evade punches and takedowns (and make boring fights.)

Well, I donīt think he can beat Fedor or Barnett anyway, but I still would like to see those fights.

As would I
I just hope he gets that old aggression back to make those fights more interesting.
