who do you think the ufc should sign, to get even more ratings?

[domination]

what exciting fighters should the ufc acquire other than the obvious, fedor. imho:
7) sergei kharitonov the man can fight. he would be a big factor in ufc's hw. BIG FACTOR
6) alistair overeem even if he does gass out. before he does he puts on a show. and the 5 min rds surely benefit him to. plus a rematch with chuck would be a very exciting fight
5) ninja rua he needs too seriosly get signed to the ufc and start training with shogun, wand, and anderson. so they ca get back to the old chute boxe days. who knows he could be a good addition at 170
4) aleksander emelianenko b4 ufc bought pride. i thought he was going to the ufc but he didn't. if fedor wont sign, hell sign aleks. aleks vs couture would be a good fight. i think if he was in the right shape he could beat randy, probably worse the fedor would. fights with gonzaga, kongo, or AA good good fights. america would eat up his style of fighting.
3) gomi of course a rematch with b.j. great addition to 155. big fights in that stacked division
2) MELVIN MANHOEF. great addition to the lhw or mw division. manhoef's vicious holland kickboxing style is tailor made for america's adrenaline fix. VICIOUS!! plus he has a decent ground game not spectacular but he has one.
1) in know its not exactly ufc but wec would do very good if they signed kid yamamoto. big ratings with super fights against pulver and faber.

this is just my opinion feel free to share yours.

Have Hulk Hogan join Rogan and Goldberg on commentating. The numbers would go through the roof.

[domination]

hahaha. hulk hogan and macho man commentating would be hilarious
oooooooh yeah

[POINDEXTER]

the UFC should sign Tyson.

[The Sundance Kid]

Josh Barnett, Matt Lindland, Mark Hunt (if he's not still under contract), Ivan Salaverry, Drew Fickett.

[Brutus]

Barnett, Filho, Gomi and Shields

EDIT: I include Linland and Hunt as well. Good fights at HW w/ Hunt, the guy needs to be hit w/ the equivalent of a sledgehammer to get Ko'd

[ctshea]

I think a great addition would have to be Butterbean LOL!!

Ninja Rua definately without a doubt and I have to agree with alistair overeem

But in my opinion as well I think the return of vitor belfort would be awesome expecially where he wants to take ortiz on... I think that would bring some numbers up.

I think we need to get Little Antonio Rogerio Nogueira in on this too. I think it would be great to have both brothers in UFC

[kylewyzle2005]

fedor and aleksander, mayweather, filho, urijah faber, kurt angle, KIMBO SLICE....

[eazye76]

If the sole purpose is ratings then get Kurt Angle.
If the goal is a better orginization get either Josh Barnett, who could keep Tim from getting his grubby little hands on the belt anytime soon, and/or Dennis Kang, even with the exodus from 205, and his recent loss, he would be an asset.
