Nog has chronic pain in his joints,in world class fighting terms the guy is crippled with injury,its not rocket science
Hes not even close to a can hes a fine fighter but hes not some sort of god. Aside from the 1 shot KOs over Salmon and Liddell hes never displayed any real good striking he just goes in there and trys his best Joe Fraizer imitation. Hes not a Heavyweight and thats what your dumbass needs to see hes a small Light Heavyweight how are we suppose to expect him to trash good Heavyweight fighters. He will get outworked by Forrest Griffin.
Thats called injury theres nothing about him that shows a crippled man. Hes dealing with tough **** but guess what many MANY almost all fighters go into fights with some sort of injury some extremly dangerous. Its apart of MMA you train and fight hurt I seriously doubt you do MMA so you dont know.
Tell that to Tim Sylvia who holds wins over some of the best heavyweights in the sport. The bottom line is yeah most of them are slow, uncoordinated but they are STRONG, POWERFUL especially compared to a LHW. Just look at Brandon Vera who moved down because of this exact reason. Beating BRad Imes is not an accomplishment. Imes flat out stinks. Evans wont be able to beat any top 15 HW in the world.
watch Rashad close,real close up,the guy has a sweet left hook better than anything in the UFC HW division
Well I dont wanna argue but I aint seen much of a left hook but maybe I aint looked hard enough. I got a few Evans fights on tape/dvd when I have time ill look for this that said im not sure of any Heavyweights then have a real good left hook though.
I think Rashad should stay at LHW. And he'll do quite well. I don't think he could beat someone like Shane Carwin at HWT.
No. He's just not going to be heavyweight champion. I can list a half a hundred reasons why, but it's not worth the time. Beating Brad Imes to win heavyweight TUF isn't enough to tell me he's going to get past some of the amazing submission fighters in the heavyweight division: Nog, Werdum, even Mir. I think he'd have problems with Gonzaga, too.
