We’re two fights into Bellator’s yearlong heavyweight tournament, and we’ll have the semifinals set in the next two months. We also just saw the NCAA Tournament kick off.

So that got us thinking: If the UFC did a yearlong tournament, the way Bellator is doing at heavyweight, what would be the most interesting division for it to take place in?

We offered up bantamweight, lightweight, welterweight and middleweight as the suggestions, and our readers and MMAjunkie Radio listeners weighed in on Twitter.

There would be some fun options at bantamweight with champion T.J. Dillashaw, ex-champ Cody Garbrandt, and the potential that flyweight champ Demetrious Johnson would move up to take part – much in the same way Bellator light heavyweight champ Ryan Bader is in the current heavyweight grand prix.

Lightweight would no doubt feature interim champion Tony Ferguson and Khabib Nurmagomedov, who fight to unify the title in a few weeks since champ Conor McGregor has yet to defend the belt he won from Eddie Alvarez in November 2016. Would McGregor be in there? Justin Gaethje? Dustin Poirier? Former champ Anthony Pettis? What about the return of Nate Diaz … or would we see him in a (purely fantasy) welterweight tournament?

Welterweight would have great options, too, including former champs Georges St-Pierre and Robbie Lawler, Stephen Thompson, Colby Covington, Rafael dos Anjos, Darren Till, Neil Magny, “Cowboy” Cerrone. And middleweight? Might we see Anderson Silva make a comeback alongside the likes of ex-champs Michael Bisping, Luke Rockhold and Chris Weidman, “Jacare” Souza, Yoel Romero, Kelvin Gastelum …

All these are hypothetical, of course, but sure make for some interesting conversations. And that said, you pretty convincingly weighed in to say lightweight would be the best division if the UFC went down the tournament road.
