Who are some guys that could move into the UFC and have some success. Anyone off of the Silverbacks looks far better than most of the other fighters.

Ben Rothwell IMO could be top 10 in my rankings if he fought in the UFC, refer to the thread about HW's ranks.

Anyway, anyone that has seen a decent amount of fights from the IFL would know far more than me on the IFL so help would be nice.

Rothwell as you mentioned, Horodecki could be top ten/will be top ten, Palaszewski, Radach (now that he is finally injury free).
I think we will see more after a full season including a grand prix at the end to determine the best fighters in each weight class

Frank Shamrock, when asked about the status of Brian Ebsersole, mentioned that he thought Ebersole fought at too high a level to fight in the IFL.

Indeed, the IFL is beginning to look like a launching pad for young, skiilled, inexperienced fighters. But is its status as something of a minor league the most it can hope for?

Is the IFL's idea that they will compete at this level until they can sign some top fighters?

Or do the top fighters prefer competing by themselves as opposed to in the team format?
