Apparently, Overeem vs. Werdum has been confirmed for August 15th Strikeforce, leaving Roger and Brett without opponents.
I would love to see this fight. What say you, UG?
ttt
I can understand why you'd want to see it, but I'm not dying for that fight yet. Roger has no standup but is probably the best groundfighter in the world, and Brett has monster punches but would likely get subbed in under a minute. I'd rather see those two get an opponent that is more like a 7 at everything rather than a 0 at their strength and a 10 at their weakness.
It would be cool to see, but for the sake of there careers I think they shouldn't fight...yet
Let Roger get some more expirience and Bretthave another significant win. After than, I'm all for it!
I just don't get it. Brett beat Arlovski who, like it or not, was ranked #3 in the world and then gets snubbed out of the title shot.
good for his career in the long run, keep picking up wins in the bigtime, and gaining experience
lol at "Hoger Hogers"
LOL
Sucks that Rogers/Overeem feel through.
I would think that Gracie would quickly take Rogers down and submit him. If that fight does go to the ground, Rogers would be screwed.
Brigham - I just don't get it. Brett beat Arlovski who, like it or not, was ranked #3 in the world and then gets snubbed out of the title shot.
Exactly what I was thinking...
PS I hope Brett KO's Roger for the simple fact people already say he can beat Fedor...
Roger/Ricco, perhaps?
Although it would never happen, al least not anytime soon, i want to see rogers vs carwin right now while they are both still pretty raw, well as raw as guys with ten fights can be.
Shu Hirata is a very smart man and is going to pick the right fights for Roger. This isn't one of those fights.
roger gets duckunder - takes back, chokes standing or on ground
still sounds fun
Does anyone know if Brett got hurt or something? i thought Brett/Overeem was confirmed.
this would be an interesting fight, but if you're either fighter's manager you might be looking for a different fight.
The fight would be over in the first, one way or the other.
He should fight Tim Sylvia .. Go back to back former UFC champions..
