One thing about Roy that is really underrated is how quick his feet are. Most HW’s are pretty heavy on their feet, but Roy has good footwork suprisingly. I think he can use his footwork to get inside, and should be able to handle the fight from there. I am looking forward to this fight, interesting match up for sure.

Is his gut just full of gas?

but part of me will be on Team Big Country.

His belly is misunderstood. Roy is going through a ten year long bulking phase. This is the smart way to put on the pounds when compared to that horrible work-out regime that most do. When he stops his bulking phase and moves on to the toning phase….LOOK OUT!!! Seriously though, I like Roy, and I think he will win this fight.

is a serious threat to alot of guys at HW. He has very good hands and his grappling is top notch.

Struve is one great bet imo

I hate matches like this. Putting the absolute tallest guy in the division vs the shortest and fattest. When there’s such a HUGE disparity in their physical attributes, who the hell knows who’s really the better fighter? A few inches reach advantage is one thing, but a whole freakin’ FOOT is too much to ask of anyone, especially against a damn kickboxer. This is like a rematch of Monson vs Sylvia, but without Monson’s freakish strength. With all the guys they could match these two against you’ll never convince me that Dana isn’t doing this just to make Nelson look bad. He’s made it very clear that he doesn’t like Nelson and this is his way of punishing him for winning TUF. “Oh yeah, you’ll get your contract, but we’ll see who has the last laugh!”
