Carwin would olbiterate him; more power, stronger, better striking technique, and oh yea has a game beyond being big and having a powerful but sloppy punch. Carwin would beat him worse than Fedor, he wouldn't be held agains the cage, he would ragdoll the fatter weaker Rogers who has no wrestling, then either knock him cold or take him down and then knock him cold.
What does Rogers do as good as Carwin? He's worse, significantly worse, in absolutely everything. In strikig Carwin is better, and outside of boxing Rogers has literally absolutely nothing, no game at all, not one thing he can do.
Rodgers = Heavyweight Houston Alexander. All Rodgers can do is throw slow, wide, powerful punches. Carwin would take him down and brutalize him or even maybe knock him out. It seems like Carwin has a very good chin and big time power. He took punches from Gonzaga and came back and brutally knocked him out cold. He has knocked out everyone.
Meh, I'll give you that one. Perhaps Carwin is better with his hands than Rogers. But Rogers is much taller and packs at least as much KO power.
Rodgers is powerful but not that skilled at striking. I think Gonzaga is a better striker than Rodgers. Gonzaga's leg kicks are crippling, and he is a huge HW who can punch and throws straight punches. He isnt fat like Rodgers either. And I am sure better on the ground than Bret. I would like to see Werdum or Bigfoot Silva vs Rodgers.
And? I aint anal about this **** and my opinion can be swayed depending on the argument. I'm not gona hold on to my view blindly no matter what unlike the frequent douchebags around here.
Carwin would win, period. Rodgers is good at knocking out glass chinned fighters like James Thompson, Arlovski. And Jon Murphy who the much smaller Houston Alexander knocked out in 56 seconds.
Discredit Fedors opponents all you want, fact of the matter is when he ends up fighting the guys everyone wants to see him fight, he wins. Nog/CroCop/Sylvia/Arlovski.............. Rogers KO everyone he fought too so what is the difference. I think everyone just wants to be the guy to say.............. " I told you such and such was the one who would beat Fedor" So all you touch holes keep picking everybody, then whe he beats them you guys are the same douchebags saying "Fedor got lucky but this guy will beat him, watch!" and the cycle continues 'til finally one day Fedor loses.
I give Fedor all the credit in the World. He is the best. As for Rodgers it don't see being him near as good as people cliam him to be. I think Werdum or Bigfoot Silva would have a really good shot to beat Rodgers. All Rodgers has shown is power. Werdum has shown an awesome chin, and great submissions. Bigfoot is huge, a powerful puncher, and has a ground game.
Who does Fedor need to beat to get respect from haters? Look at who he has beat. Nog twice, hunt, fugita, arlovski, sylvia, PRIME CRO COP, and now undefeated slugger Rogers. Do people really think an untested Lesnar will beat Fedor?:rofl WHEN Fedor vs Brock takes place, Fedor will end Lesnar on the feet. Bet.:deal
People who are haters are going to hate no matter who he fights. Fedor vs Brock isn't going to take place. And if it ever does it will happen many years from now. Fedor isn't going to fight in the UFC, and right now Lesnar is Dana Whites meal ticket.
