LW and HW Elimination tournament in the UFC

IMO the UFC should have a tournament with the top 4-6 fighters in the LW and HW divisions. Both weight classes do not have champions and thats a problem. Its bad for marketing and its bad for mma in general. I know Randy situation just happened, but the HW title/champion needs to be found. The LW title is a joke right now. Sherk most likely will not be able get the Athletic Commision to overturn their decision.

So instead of Dana White picking names out of a hat or however he came up with the Sherk vs. Florian fight a few years ago to determine the LW champion, why not have a torney for the LW and HW classes? Will the Zuffa company ever do that? I think they should set up 3 fights or so in those divisions to determine who is the rightful champion.


LW:
Penn
Stevenson
Frankie Edgar
Roger Huerta or Clay Guida winner


HW

Big Nog
Kongo
Gonzaga
AA
Sylvia
