UFC 143 has come and gone, and in some ways, it left us with more questions than answers. Let's take a look at who the Fantasy Matchmaker has in store next for 143's winners and losers.

Carlos Condit: TBA.
If GSP isn't ready to return this year, I think it makes most sense to book a rematch against Diaz. Not because I don't think Condit deserved to win, but because I think it's the fight that would generate the most dollars and be most interesting for the fans.

Nick Diaz: See above.
If GSP does come back earlier than expected, I like Dana White's idea of Diaz vs. Josh Koscheck. One idea I don't like is Diaz retiring.

Fabricio Werdum: Shane Carwin.
There isn't a good answer out there right now for Werdum, since I think Cain Velasquez should fight Frank Mir next, so a fight against Carwin is the only real option out there for him.

Roy Nelson: Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira.
This would make for a fun fight on the feet and on the ground. Plus, both men need to get back on the winning track.

Josh Koscheck: TBA.
Again, if the UFC books GSP vs. Condit, I would book Koscheck vs. Diaz. If Jake Ellenberger beats Diego Sanchez next week, I like the idea of Koscheck vs. Hendricks. However, if Sanchez wins, I like the idea of Sanchez vs. Koscheck II. Make sense?

Mike Pierce: Martin Kampmann.
I know Kampmann is coming off a win, while Pierce lost at UFC 143, but I like this fight, since I feel like Pierce picked up somewhat of a moral victory on Saturday night.

Renan Barao: Winner of McDonald vs. Torres.
I don't think the UFC will keep Barao sidelined until after Dominick Cruz vs. Urijah Faber III, so a fight against the winner of the upcoming Michael McDonald vs. Miguel Torres at UFC 145 works for me.

Ed Herman: Winner of Stann vs. Sakara.
Herman says he wants a top-10 opponent next, so how about the winner of the April 14 Brian Stann vs. Alessio Sakara fight?

Other fights to make:
Dustin Poirier vs. Chan Sung Jung
Alex Caceres vs. Edwin Figueroa II
Matt Riddle vs. Matt Brown
Stephen Thompson vs. Amir Sadollah
