I know some of you have had to have seen his Youtube backyard fights …What do you think his chances are in MMA …is he a gimmik or the real deal? I personally think hell whip some ass … ---

He is fighting “names” now…washed up has beens. His stand up is good…but I would like to see him fight a solid fighter. Now I would guess if he fights someone that can take it to the ground he will get owned…or if he would fight a stand up fighter who is good and in their prime he might feel the pain. But for now he is an attraction and is just there to sell PPV. ---

He’s not ready for top rung MMA heavyweights. Quite honestly I don’t think he ever will be. I’d like the UFC to do a match between him and Brock Lesnar. ---

yeah i dont think he will fare well in MMA or UFC, especially against top dogs. I dont know how solid a overall fighter he is, but i think he will be like Lesnar was… a powerhouse with rage, and the lack of experience will get him caught up in a submission move on the ground or something. I dont think he has the total offensive and defensive package yet ---

He’ll have a similar fate to Brock Lesnar and Frank Mir fight…Unless he fights total wussies!
