I wonder where those dudes will go? Okami could be another good pick. Not exciting, but he wins.

Sure anyone has the chance to beat anyone else, but he'll never have to fight someone who will completely demolish him. He'll never face someone like Nog, or Couture. He'll probably never even face someone like Jake O'Brien. So, it's safe to say that there will be some C level HW left in the later rounds for Morgan to pick up. Right now, I'd say it's time for Morgan to start looking for some fighters outside the WW division. Unless you're going for a "proposed" WEC lighter weight format. (But then there's the pesky Kimbo thing -- maybe for a few superfights??) I doubt Kimbo will ever face a fighter that has a real shot of exposing him.

Adam, you took Kimbo in the second round but you don't have anyone north of 170 yet. I guess we can keep our fingers crossed that Tank will still be on the board in the later rounds. I like Cupitt's team so far. Cupitt has a great lightweight class with a blockbuster in Shamrock and Ortiz. I’m thinking along the same lines as #6 Jeff.

Unless you guys already did Rounds 9 and 10 and didnt post it yet. Or you may get sniped now. Hey Cava, I think you just tipped your hand including Diaz and Soko in your post.

I'm not looking at who would make the best promotion. I'm looking at who has the best fighters and how they stack up against each other in a fight. I got Matt also for the best picks.
