    I think Mir started strong, they both gassed but Nelson could fight tired better than Mir.

    Yeah, i agree.

    That was a great match, very exciting to watch.

    Roy's very skillful, he's got a huge heart, very, very good grappler/fighter.

    He's alot better than I thought he was, good stuff from Big Country..

    Cheers chuffy. That was good stuff.

    I think Nelson will do very well TUF.

    I would like to see Fedor in a grappling match.

    Any videos of Fedor grappling would be great. I love the video of him and Mousasi.

    I think he'd be hard to stop for any heavy. Honestly I think he'd toss Mir around like a ragdoll. No offense to Mir but Fedor would last a lot longer and he's more explosive. He'd have those submission attempts count a lot more.

    I would expect Mir to get handled too.

    For a big guy he isnt that hard to control, particularly when he gasses.

    His ability to sweep people from his back would mess Mir up too.

    Could Fedor sweep Lesnar?

    Damn that would be brilliant.

    I would expect Fedor to do very well.

    Fedor vs Roger Gracie grappling would be awome.

    Sure would bro.

    Speaking of Roger Gracie, I just saw this ..

    ------------------------------------------------

    With Roger Gracie pulling out of the Superfight due to injury a host of top names are clamoring to take his spot. Two such top fighters contacted Kid Peligro today: Dean Lister and Ronaldo "Jacare"

    Lister: "I just now finally heard Roger is out of Superfight. I really, REALLY would love the honor of replacing him after all I was also injured in 2007 as defending superfight champ and I was supposed to face Roger. I am undefeated in absolute and superfight. I am ready and strong and I will put on an exciting match for the world. Proud to be representing ADCC every day of my life."

    "Jacare": "I've just heard about Roger's vacancy in the Superfight. I want to let everyone know that I am ready to step in and fight. I lost to Roger in 2006 when he got the absolute taking the spot in the Superfight. I want the chance to fight Robert Drysdale and if I win perhaps I can have a rematch with Roger in 2009!"

    Thats unfortunate. Does that mean he is out of the whole championships?

    ADCC already happened, He didn't compete. I'd like to see him enter any grappling tournament. Even though he's an MMA fighter first but than a grappler second I think he can do some damage and perhaps promote Sambo with good performance.
