I voted for all of them, they are all dangerous.

Vladys got a gas tank
I thought about Quinton for awhile but he looked so rusty in his last fight I couldn't see him doing it anytime soon.

Curious why you left Lil Nog off the list.

They can all beat him. Who has the best chance? Tough call, my top three in no specific order:
Machida
Jones
Griffin

I would say Machida still has the best shot.

Rashad has the best chance for me, if he uses his wrestling then I think he will be able to get a decision or finish him on the ground, if Coleman can put a whooping on Shogun on the ground then so can Rashad I think.
Jones has a good chance too but Rashad will have taken the belt back by the time he gets his shot.
Of all the LHWs I think AS would put a beating on him on the feet.

Machida or Jones. Based on what I've seen of Shogun lately, not a lot of guys stand a good chance. Perhaps Rashad if he can get his stand up game consistent.

I feel a 3rd fight later on would go Machida's way

I couldn't resist I voted for all of them but Rashad probably cause of speed and wrestling.

Jon Jones in a year will have a chance. He has the length to get to Shogun, and his wrestling and strength could really bother shogun. Shogun doesnt mind fighting off his back, but Jon Jones could take advantage of that and wear him out. Although he has not shown the greatest gas tank and tired against Bonnar.
Rashad does not have a chance. He can not stick to a gameplan for 3 rounds let alone 5. His tank has come into question his last 3 fights. He also has an iffy chin, hes been ko'ed by Machida, and Rocked and nearly put out by silva and ramapage.

I think a wrestler with a gameplan and the tenacity to really stick to it would have a great chance.
I don't think the division is cut and dry and that Shogun is suddenly unbeatable.
