..Who will be the UFC Champs in two years?

Consider this; two years ago the champs were as follows:

HW: Timmy
LHW: Liddell
MW: Rich Franklin/Silva
WW: Matt Hughes/GSP
LW: Sean Sherk

Two years may seem like a long time but it goes by quick and a lot can change. It makes you think about which fighters have the desire, physical ability and training to end up on top in two years.

It's much more difficult than trying to predict who will win a certain fight that is already set as you need to place your opinion on the entire landscape of the sport...not just the UFC.

Who will the UFC sign over the next four years that may end up a Champ? What Current champ (if any) can hang on that long? What current member of TUF (if any) will hold a belt? the list of questions is long...the possibilities are endless as are the opinions.

Here are mine:

HW: Fedor
LHW: Machida
MW: Anderson Silva
WW: GSP
LW: Kenny Florian

I know that MW and WW seem like cop outs but I just don't see anyone beating GSP or Spider. Two years is 6-8 title defenses (maybe less with injuries) and I can't see any contenders that pose a serious threat to either. Oh yeah...I almost forgot...if you think that Anderson Silva will be retired in 2010 seek help. It will not happen.

Kenny is a long shot...I realize this. But he certainly has the desire...gets better each time he fights and has great trainers. Plus...he’s from Boston. Go Sox.

The UFC will eventually sign Fedor...it will happen, simple economics will prevail. When he does get signed...he will win the belt and keep it.

Call Machida what you will...boring, the ever popular "elusive" etc...but he is for real and if he gets the belt he is the type that could have a long, long run.

Once again...just my opinions.

What are yours?
