@jjohnson218 True mate, true! Roy has taken it this far and that to me is very impressive! Though, he might never wear that strap until he reconcider the belly cause imo Cain would stop him in his tracks. Though I would be very happy to see Roy take the title like he is today, thaty would be awesome. The thing is though, hang a weight of maybe 1/7 of your bodyweight around your weist and do a complete fight and see for your selfs how much it really does to carry dead weight around! Roy´s tuff!

[LitenSkada]

@FfantasyF Yes, I dissagree as well. JDS is a stud and even though Nelson didn´t win that fight JDS must have been chocked, he takes out most his opponents but Nelson just kept coming?? I like any fighter who dare ti be themself and not buy into the tuff guy stereo act etc... Though, I have gotta wonder, how good would he be if he swapped that fat for muscle instead? A ripped Roy Nelson with stamina like god himself would be a threat to any HW period, but with belly goone it may be 205lhw

@FfantasyF Thats my point, he does well until his skills are matched, then he gets fucked due to all the extra nonmuscle weight he is carrying.

[emilm91]

@FfantasyF I agree, but the the weight of the fat around his belly, is extra muscle on the entire body of say JDS.

He simply doesn't have enough muscle to compete against the best heavyweights at the moment.

[emilm91]

@MrGamePhreak Agreed, the problem with nelson is that he only relies on his superior technique to beat up on people, once his technique isn't on another planet compared to the guy he is fighting he loses because much of his weight is fat instead of muscles.

Roy nelson weight and how he handles himself in the ring it a big advantage and he does it the right way leaning on people. Also he got good boxing and holds his hands well and he has strong punches.

[mmaboxingfan2]

@mbrit1818 roy nelson would never be able to drop to lhw you dummy. He has to cut weight to make heavyweight. If roy nelson would cut down to lhw it wouldnt be healthy for his body at all he would be dehydrated and would slow down alot so really it would make his punches not as strong. I also disagree with you saying he cant hang with the top heavyweights in the ufc he easily can and when he fights junior and wins he will prove hes one of the best.

[jjohnson218]

@MrGamePhreak why fix what aint broke lol

[liebestandarte88]

big country is the man you dirty haters!!!!!!!!!!!!

[comedianravikissoon]

Yeah big country nelson let that gut hang

[Brockrock72]

@MrGamePhreak Why? If he has the strength to manage the gut himself, why not use it as an advantage? If you were his trainer, he would be losing instead of winning.

[EricJames28]

you dont know how his body works dude, some people train hard and get those kinds of results.. wins

[HorrrorReviewer]

@MBritt1818 I agree that he woul dbe deadly at LHW but i think he could hang with the big boys in HW. I think him and cain would be an interesting fight. Atm i dont know if roy could beat him. But i think if roy fights his way up the HW division he will be able to give cain a good fight.

[MBritt1818]

i mean not saying he cant fight and hang with guys in the HW division but take guys like Cain Velasquez , Shane Carwin, Brock lesnar or even Frank Mir

in my opinion he wouldtn stand a chance with those guys ... with his knock out power if he dropped down to LHW he could do some serious damage with his experience

[HorrrorReviewer]

IDk, i think roy will easily beat struve and then he will do good in the HW division from there. He did a good job agaisnt Arloski, but the ref was a dumb ass and stood the fight up before roy could try anything. After he beats struve id like to see him fight gonzaga or Cheik Kongo.

[HorrrorReviewer]

Watch his fights with Brad imes, Brendan Shaub, And Justin Wren. He won all those fights with his stand up not his belly. Also in his fight with rothwell he lost but he showed some damn good stand up against a guy that can throw a pretty good punch.

[hallmonitor98]

i think he could be fedor good if lost a little bit of his belly

[MrGamePhreak]

omg ok ok ok i noe my comment didnt myake much sense, but thats not my bigger point now, yes the man has good hands and his a beast on the floor, but you cant deny that his fat stomach is the reason he keeps ppl down, but hopefully he'll get in better shape and fight harder

[gameboy010203]

@MrGamePhreak

he dominated frank mir in a grappling match (mir's specialty) at grapplers quest

rate them about even standing up maybe roys standup a lil better

not that i like the fat fuck anyways

[brani123]

he would be a killer force if he cuts weight

[MBritt1818]

the only way roy nelson can be somthing in the UFC today is to cut wight and go light heavy weight !!!! Frank Mir even told him to cut down so to many big guys and skilled athletes in heavy wieght right now

[taylorleigh1231]

moron...roy nelson is prob one of the only guys that could beat brock lesnar cuz hes one of the only guys that is as big as him...dont underestimate him

[MrGamePhreak]

yea i saw that yesturday.....it was a pretty hard hit , and roy won.....lol but lets see him go vs frank mir or brock

[magonz177]

people hate just because hes fat. look at the facts: he has really good cardio which is why he outlasts mosts of his opponents (even tho he loks more out of shape than them), he has an experienced background in the ifl, and he is very well trained. His physical appearance makes everyone underestimate him.

[MrGamePhreak]

ROY NELSON ISNT SHIT...sorry but look at the facts, yes he has some skill but rrly the IFL isnt shit compared to the fighters of the UFC imagine brock lesnor against him, its a massacare, plus all nelson does is use that fat ass stomache of his, and yea just watch in his fight coming up his bound to lose, hopefully he'll retire or lose weight cuz shit....wtf man lol
