Barnett should walk through Roy Nelson, right?

Barnett should walk up to Roy Nelson, push him up against the cage, and take him down, right?

He should beat him up thurroughly on the ground and drop numerous 'bows and hammer fists on his belly, right?

He shouldn't get his takedowns stuffed and beaten up and KO'd halfway through the round and make us wonder what happened to the Warmaster, right?

I hope the Warmaster finds a way to summon the powers that dominate, grasp his inner strength and seize control of that hate that let him barrel through Mir, Kharitonov, Rogers, etc. Phone Post 3.0

I feel like Barnett is just a better version of Roy, so I can't see it being too much of a problem. I also thought that Barnett would run through Browne too though so who knows Phone Post 3.0

Don't think he was expecting those elbows. Rematch might go differently. Phone Post 3.0

He should imo... Roy doesnt really have a game plan and those who know what he can throw can avoid it. Phone Post 3.0

You never know with Roy. His fights are very hard to predict, anyone can get caught slipping and if they do against Roy it's all over. Barnett is coming off a long lay off, he could easily get caught Phone Post 3.0

Agreed. Should he catch any man with that looping right hand, the fight will be over, Roy has also has legit ground game and can handle himself there if required.

I'm not saying Barnett isn't good enough, far from it, but to rule out Roy is a dangerous approach. Phone Post 3.0

I would think so. Roy's only chance is to land that monster punch. Barnett is much better at everything.

When was the last time Josh looked great: 2006 against Nog? The Hunt fight? The Ghost of Rizzo?

He should beat Roy easily. He should beat everyone easily. The guy just doesn't fight enough to stay as sharp as he should be.

IMO, Josh is a top 3 talent, but he can't seem to put it all together and be consistent.
