I don't think they can sell the public on Brett "Grim" Rogers being a world class elite HW MMA fighter anymore. He's big and can punch. That's about it.. Yea he used to work at Sam's club...we get it.. Sorry he is just not an elite HW. I hate saying it, but while I was watching i kept saying "Wow what would Lesnar or Carwin do to that guy right now":. Same with Arlovski.. he is done... Yea he wears a fang mouthpiece and calls himself the Pitbull..everyone likes him, cool that's great...he still is not elite level anymore..

....and I would much rather watch paint dry than watch Kevin Randleman fight...its the same thing over and over again...the broadcast crew trying to sell his explosivenes...him pacing back and forth like a caged lion....him rushing to the center of the cage looking like he is going to explode...and then nothing....In his last four fights I am sure he has throw less than fifty punches....its the end of the end for Randleman.

In Randleman's defense. He was one of the best. He is very far from his prime. Roger Gracie is a huge prospect. The best bjj fighter out there. Keep a watch on him. Brett Rogers vs Kimbo Slice! Battle of the Flukes! lol Brett Rogers has a lot more way to go. He has a lot of potential, but he went from fighting average joes to fighting the best in the world. That was too big a step for him right now. He needs to get some good competition and work his way back. Overeem vs Fedor would be really interesting. So will Werdum vs Fedor. Overeem will be a better matchup because he is much bigger. Huge reach. Very technical. So if I had to pick a guy to beat Fedor. I'd pick Overeem. Of course if had to bet on that fight. I'd still go for Fedor.
