Count another one. With the Strikeforce heavyweight division going away soon, most of its fighters are making their way over to the UFC and the latest to do so is Shane Del Rosario, who signed a contract recently to fight inside the Octagon. His management team announced the move late last night. Anyone care to play matchmaker and fantasy book his first bout under the UFC banner?

Too much
Too soon
Jason Miller is a retard with straight hair and curly teeth.Hes a couple of dolly mixtures short of a quarter and spends his time swinging of a tyre attached to a rope! I should have listened to the MMA royalty on here,especially Jay,ANS and ViolentMike who kept reminding me that Mikes wrestling was the best at 185 and 205 and that if Greg Jackson,Randy Couture,Blackhouse,ATT or team quest ever needed any tips on game planning Wolfsalir is just a phone call away

Give him someone to get his feet wet. He won’t be in title contention soon. Maybe schaub after he gets ko’d by rothwell.
Haha
We can only hope schaub gets koed
Cus if he Beats rothwell he will most certainly talk about how he deserves a title shot soon

Mir wouldve been a good first fight for him BUT we have no idea how he has recovered from his accident.
If you dont like drugs then dont do them.....give them to me!
Stephan Struve as always is a good entry fight for anyone heading to the ufc
If you can beat him you dont suck, if you cannot then you suck.

Um he's actually a pretty solid talent
6-3 in the UFC And only 23
One of those losses to the champ
Another to a top ten at the time and another to an unbeaten up an comer
The only thing that “sucks” is your opinion and judgment of talent.

I think all of y'all
Are throwing him to the wolves. He’s a good prospect. Give him a chance to get a win after his car crash prior to throwing him above the gatekeepers. I’d send him against the winner of Kongo/Hunt.
Was gonna post the same
I think a Shaub, Pat Barry, Struve fight would be more appropriate. If he wasn’t ready for a guy like Rogers in SF, he’s not ready for Mir or Carwin
This post doesnt show up in the sbnation app. Sup with that?

Also
Gonzaga has proven inconsistent enough for that to be an interesting fight

Oh no
Im the double post guy. Mobile sites blow. Improve the app
by Crowls on Dec 29, 2011 2:26 AM EST via mobile up reply actions
Clearly
The app is awful

Love this signing. Dude has a ton of potential in such a thin division desperately in need of quality fighters. The UFC would be silly to put him against a super quality guy right away though, he could use a couple lesser opponents to build him up.
I say give him Stipe Miocic first. Two undefeated, untested guys. I like it.
Awesome
This really makes me happy. Most of all because Del Rosario’s career isn’t over as a result of that crash. It was not looking good initially. Man the UFC HW division is going to be friggin epic when all these SF guys are in. WOW.

I wanna see del Rosario fight
Matt Mitrione
Very marketable fight IMO as well

This would be a great first fight

Chad Griggs anyone?
Gets both of them a fight and allows Shane to build on a mid-tier fighter. Then someone like Mike Russow. Bring him along slowly.

AWESOME! Mittrione would be perfect for him!
20$ on money pool season with kg12 as well as VM, on who finishes higher.
My 10$ vs Chorongota's 15$ on Brock to beat Reem. Also sig and pic for the whole month of January (minimum 200 comments).
