Roy Nelson Press Confernece

[jr280188]

Roy nelson deserves a lot more respect than he gets he is a good fighter. He has power in his hands, he has very good grappling and submission skills. As for his conditioning people shouldn't be fooled by his physique he can go for as long as he needs in the cage.

[BRANOFNF]

People are like 'He's just fat' blah blah blah, but he performs really well, like obviously he does given that he's the IFL champion....

[emkplayboy6]

nah dude seriously he is just a fat ass and yea he uses that to his advatage since he is so fat but he needs to lose weight! if he were too he would probably be an even better fighter

[BRANOFNF]

Oh I get it, because you've said 'nah dude seriously' now I agree with you. Who cares if he's fat? His cardio is clearly better than a lot of the other fighters currently in TUF for example, and again, he's clearly not 'just a fat ass' because if he was, he wouldn't hold any titles, bar maybe pie eating ones, never mind the IFL heavyweight belt. He's fought like sixteen pro' fights and won the vast majority; there are loads of slim fighters who've done a far shot worse.

[emkplayboy6]

dude he needs to eat more raison bran! that way he can shit out all thta excess fat! rofl

[BRANOFNF]

Good one. I mean, I'd take your point but I find it hard given that you can't even spell 'raisin'.

[emkplayboy6]

but you got what i meant right? lol since when did youtube become a proper grammar/literature place? rofl!!

[BRANOFNF]

I understand what you're saying, but it's stupid. Again, MMA isn't about modeling, it's about fighting, and Roy Nelson's a well accomplished fighter, regardless of his weight. I mean I bet you every guy he's beaten down will have been a lot slimmer than him, but they still lost, didn't they?

[emkplayboy6]

yea and he'll have fun having health complications later on with a body like that lol diabetes any one?

[BRANOFNF]

So now you drop that he's not 'just a fat ass' as you realise that actually he is a good fighter, made clear by your lack of any argument whatsoever concerning his fights. What you need to remember is again, his fitness levels are a lot better than some of the guys around him in TUF. As many big, muscular guys run into problems with their health as it puts a strain on their heart too, later in life. Arnie had to have open heart sugery ffs; he didn't have an ounce of fat on him.

[emkplayboy6]

Dude i never said he was or is a good fighter some one who uses their fat ass belly to trap some one on the ground and throw punches is not an impressive fighter just as he does in this video and as he did against Kimbo this dude can't go toe to toe thats why he takes it to the ground cause he scared

[ponbass2]

well what do you think about him now?

[emkplayboy6]

@ponbass2 ya know he did good and im not denying that he has experience but i just dont understand how some one who trains like he does is still sucha fat ass? lol na but for reall he a good fighter

[DanHipp]

@emkplayboy6 um, I think Kimbo was scared when he was in Roy's crucifix getting punched over and over in the face.

[bdmpd]

grow up. Nelson is an awesome fighter as is. Proves you aint got have a six pack to succeed in the UFC. You probably pissed cause you spend all damn day in a gym checking out other guys and Nelson could still beat your ass.

[emkplayboy6]

you're a fag!

[ericssson]

he's a fat american and you saw what happen

[notrighthere]

This guy is actually a very accomplished grappler, one of the best in the HW division.

[yim1989]

[SkipNYK]

[loralee347]
