Joe Rogan once said he believed if you took Phil Baroni's brain and put it into Pedro Rizzo's body that he would never lose a fight. Who do you think would be the best possible combination and how do you think they would do against Rogan's Baroni/Rizzo hybrid?

Fedor's brain + Aleks' body? Rickson's brain + Jon Jones body? GSP's brain + Lesnar's body?

Emelianko hybrid = TKO by gound and pound

Gracie/Jones = 1st round RNC

GSP/Brock = TKO ground and pound

Cruz's mind in Cormier's body.
Wow, what a strange combination! Do you think Cruz could effectively use his current evasive striking style inside of Cormier's body? His short limbs and stocky build would be a very tough adjustment in my opinion.

It would be interesting to see would it not?! :)

But yeah of course he'd have to adjust, but there is zero doubt that his standup would be miles better.

In terms of interesting for sure I agree, just not optimal. If were talking interesting I'd pair Wanderlei's brain with Mark Hunt's body. Basically a real life version of Juggernaut.

Is there a single fighter that wouldn't be better with Cruz's brain?

I'd say Bj mind / Anderson body is the correct way to pair the two although I'm not sure even that would be better than simply 100% Silva.
Maybe half and half? Anderson's guard and bj's top game, bj's boxing and Anderson's mt/tqd, bj's tdd and Anderson a range and timing.

Jon Jones's brain inside Stefan Struve's body would be undisputed heavyweight champ
