    That´s a Gracie thing in my opinion......They want to prove how the BJJ still could beat anyone in "modern" MMA....I agree, too soon...

    Babalu and Kyle would be MUCH better fights. They would be a step up, poise dangers yet be winnable and prepare him for the next stage.

    Gegard will blast him on the feet. I just hope he doesn't pull a Fedor and jump into guard after rocking him.

    One Punch KO, Ferguson is a great idea! Interesting contest indeed.

    Mike Kyle can whack, he's fairly dangerous but he's a big step up rather than a ludicrous step up IMO.

    Still, Roger clearly has set his goals high to be looking at this fight so soon. Of course his BJJ game is sick, we can all see that already, but at least take the opportunity to test yourself over fifteen minutes, rather than going straight in with a renowned dangerman.

    Still, I would most definitely not turn my nose up at this fight if it were to be made. It would be essential viewing.

    Sobral would be the best challenge. Someone who is a Banger and can compete with him jujitsu wise.

    Give him time to evolve and improve his stand up. It'll probably never be his bread and butter but its much better for complete fighters to mix it up than style vs style when fighters are inexperience.

    Nice roger better take this fight to the ground ASAP. This would be a very interesting fight when it goes to the ground. If it stays standing mousasi will put gracie to lala land.
