Best matchups in 08?

On the front page there's an article that list the Top 10 fights that should be seen in 08. Who do you want to see matched up in 08? What in your opinion would be the most exciting matchups to see this year? Note: most of my matchups are for UFC fighters but include whoever you want to see.

LW- Huerta vs. Florian think it would be a non stop battle on the feet and on the ground.
WW- Hughes vs Koscheck I just want to see who the best wrestler really is...besides GSP
MW- Silva vs. Silva, if Wandy decides to drop down I think it would be an exciting battle
LHW- Page vs. Griffin, I just want Page to destroy the UFC's posterboy. Not that I don't like Forrest but I think Jardine was more deserving of the opportunity (another argument for anotehr day and discussion)
HW-Fedor vs. Couture, let's settle it once and for all.

Out of those I would like to see Silva vs Silva, I think WANDY could easily cut weight down to 185. Also, Fedor vs Couture honestly that needs to happen much like WAND vs Chuck, it would be a great fight. 3

I would also like to see Rampage vs. Chuck with a re-focused Chuck. Lastly, GSP vs. Terra.

I cannot begin to tell you how stoked I am for that fight. I think that theres tons and tons of talent and potential between those fighters, and I'd like to see how Lauzon does against an experienced submission artist.

Plus Boston just wont know what to do with itself.

idk cause it was announced and i just really like watchign lauzon fight. I think it potentially moves either one of them up the ladder to the ligthweight title and with sherk doing roids both have a shot at victory.
