    Its been a couple of years but I remember when 50+% of this board thought The Gorilla would be too much for CEJ.

    If CEJ doesn't get GGG, how about he spanks Ryder like he should have done 2-3 years ago?

    Who do you think will win now CEJ or The Gorilla

    Doesn't john have problems making middle weight?
    CEJ would be far to much for him anyway Imo

    I was just thinking CEJ should avenge that fantasy loss he sustained against Ryder those years ago. Ryder was the first guy to beat CEJ in a fantasy match up, and we haven't forgotten, we will never forget that vicious fantasy whipping haha.

    It's interesting to see how the Ryder hype has died down.

    think that died out after a string of pointless match ups after losing to BJS before getting iced by Blackwell

    He was a good British level fighter and I thought he would beat Blackwell, so I don't think anyone can really suggest he would be Jr anymore. Maybe a few years ago when Jr was a little more raw it might be closer, but I doubt it.
