On my wedding day, my father gave me one simple piece of advice. What he said was, he said, Slugger, whenever you have an opportunity to tell somebody you’ve never met how to do their job, take advantage of that opportunity. I took that advice. And you know what else? I’ve never looked back.
The tradition continues today, when I offer, from the comfort of my couch, a little bit of Monday morning matchmaking. Here are 10 tantalizing non-title fights the UFC could make today.
This list doesn’t second-guess what Joe Silva and the UFC matchmaking brain trust has already done. These ideas involve fighters who are currently uncommitted and available to fight (or will be soon). It also doesn’t pit one uncommitted fighter against the winner or loser of an already scheduled fight.
Got a non-title fight you’re dying to see? Shout it out in the comments.
