Anybody have any ideas or guesses on who's going to drop down from Featherweight to Flyweight or whom the UFC are going to sign??
Personally i would like to see Scott Jorgenson(13-4) drop, IMO i think he could rule the roost in that division. Also i would like to see Darren Uyenoyama(7-3) drop as well, being that he fought mostly @ Flyweight in Shooto Japan & had defeated a lot of big names that still currently fight @ Flyweight. I can see the newest "Ultimate Fighter" Bantamweight winner John Dodson(12-5) also making the drop considering that is the weight class he had fought beforehand.
As for recruiting world rankers i'm sure theres plenty trying to jump on the UFC train, but the biggest that come to mind that the UFC would be foolish not to grab are; Jussier da Silva(12-1), who currently sits @ No.2 ranked Flyweight, whos only loss comes to current No.1 ranking Ian McCall(11-2). He's last fought in Fort MMA & Shooto Japan. That being said neither sign major contractual obligations so he should be an easy one for the UFC to pick up. Still reltively unknown, Rambaa Somdet(9-2). Has only fought once in 2011 but still ranks in the top 10. He mostly fights in DEEP & Shooto Japan, & losses are to current No.5 Flyweight Mitsuhisa Sunabe(15-7-4) & Darren Uyenoyama (1-0 UFC), both dating back to 2002. Dustin Ortiz(8-1) has made a big splash pretty quick & already ranks No.10, his only blemish is a decision loss to Ian McCall, & well who hasnt lol. Being that he is American he should be an easy target to the UFC. Will Campuzano(9-4) has already had his chance @ the "big show"(WEC, UFC) & chokes against top competition. Still, back to his original division, coming off a submission win, & still ranking top 20 @ Flyweight he could be a decent draw for the UFC to try & grab. I really like this guy; Brandon Merkt(11-0). Undefeated & has a great camp with Team Adrenaline, hitting the top 20 in rankings this guys ready for the UFC. Last but not least; Czar Sklavos(6-1). A Jiu-Jitsu black belt quickly rising up the ranks only lossing a decision in his professional debut against "Ultimate Fighter 14" Featherweight finalist TJ Dillshaw(4-1), i think he would be great prospect.
