A look at future free agents the UFC should consider signing


In 2010, the Ultimate Fighting Championship acquired several quality free agents to further bulk up their super-stacked roster. In addition to signing prospects like Charles Oliveira and Edson Barboza, the UFC managed to bring already established stars like Takanori Gomi and Norifumi “Kid” Yamamoto into the organization.

Plus, due to the WEC merger that occurred at the end of the year the UFC now has two new weight classes and enough lightweight fighters to invade a third world country with. As we enter the year 2011, let’s take a look at a couple of fighters that the UFC should look to negotiate with.

Fighters currently under contract with Strikeforce and Bellator will not be mentioned unless we believe they will get out of their contracts this year and jump ship to the UFC. Unfortunately, Fedor Emelianenko and Alistair Overeem are not likely to do that.
