    Who would you guys like to see him fight next?

    He impressed the hell out of me tonight. He has been steadily improving with each fight, and after tonight, he deserves a step up in competition.

    If he stays at welter and Hardy beats Condit i'd like to see them two get it on, the build up to that fight could be pretty tasty aswell.

    Kapmann or maybe Diego Sanchez ?? His boxing as usual looked horrific to a boxing fan but still somehow a step above his opponents like it usually is. Kapmann or Sanchez might be too big of a jump maybe Ellenberger 1st.

    Really enjoyed his fight tonight. Davis was tough as nails his face was hanging off in that 1st and still kept coming with his poor defence.

    I was thinking Hardy, too. I hope Condit kicks his ass, though.

    Hardy imo is too much of an easy ground target for Nate, GSP couldn't do it but i'm sure Nate would rip his arm off if given the chance

    If Hardy gets in his head enough though before the fight he may make diaz want to prove a point standing with him through out the fight but yea i see your point about Hardys ground game, still think you need to break Hardys arm or put him to sleep to finish him with a sub though.

    What impresses me most about him and his brother is their toughness and how relaxed they are fighting. Punches barely seem to hurt them and fighting to them is like watching TV for the regular person its as easy as ABC no big deal to them. I love watching Nate fight he always fights tough guys and puts on good fights. Id like to see Nate in there with maybe a Lytle-Serra winner from next month Lytle would then be coming off 4 straight victories hes a BJJ Blackbelt with good hands and is very tough then of course Serra same way world class BJJ with heavy hands and of course a former UFC Champion.

    not overly impressed, davis has been on the slide for a long time and for a guy with such great hands as they say he came unstuck against a boxer with less experience but far greater reach, davis is **** end of

    I wanna see him against somebody he dislikes, just for the entertainment.

    I know he hates just about everybody at Coutures and AKA.
