Icon4 Which former champ will be champ again ?? *Update*

These fighters are all former champs and are coming off loses, do think any of them will hold a Pride or UFC belt again ??

Wandy
Tito
BJ
Randy
Franklin
Pulver
Hughes


Update:

Tito could have a chance if Chuck moves up to HW, but its more likely Rampage becomes champ before Tito does @ 205. It dosent look good for Tito, he can't beat Chuck and he doesnt want to fight Rampage.

Randy has a title shot so his chance of being champ again is very big.

Wandy still has a big chance if he gets a title shot before Shogun does, otherwise Wandy is done in Pride. If Rampage is the UFC champ and Shogun is the Pride champ, wandy will properly go to the UFC and get a shot at the title.

Hughes has also a chance because rumors say that if he wins his next fight he will get a title shot.

Franklin is in the same situation as Hughs is in, so he also has good chance. He just needs to win his next fight to get a title shot.

BJ might have a chance if he starts training hard, he would proberly just need one big win and then he would get a tilte shot in the lw div.

Pulver has no chance of being champ again until he starts winning again.

I'd say BJ at LW has the best chance of the people you listed

It would have to be BJ. I would say Wandy, but it'll probably be a while before he fights again.
