Come on man, you serious? No, not a chance, it isn't even worth having him fight Couture. Couture's last fight if he manages to get one after Machida, should be against another veteran in a winner/loser leaves match. Somebody like CC.

Can Severn compete at a high level in regional competitions? Yes! The UFC.....no.
Severn has some solid wins on his record, and could definitely beat Ken Shamrock right now if they fought again. He can definitely take out regional HW's. He just doesn't have the speed and power of current UFC HW's, reason being, he is what 52? I do think the UFC should give him tickets to any events he wants, let him sign autographs and so forth. Definitely a favorite of mine when I first started watching MMA.

UFC should sing him to get his 100th win..............he has 96 now, once he is at 99, they should sign him....put him vs a can and put it on spike TV....it would get good ratings

I could see Severn beating some mediocre competition but why bring him in the UFC if he doesn't have what it takes to compete at the top level. He couldn't hang in there with guys like Cain, JDS etc.
