Can't believe a lot of you are discounting Rothwell out.
The man is as tough as they come and by any means isnt an easy out for any HW.
He took some of AA best shots and sustained them all the way up to the 3rd round. He took a relentless beating from Cain and probably woulda kept going if Steve Maz hadnt stopped the fight at the worst possible moment. Mark Hunt threw some heavy shots and even tried to sub him (granted Mark Hunt is no JJ ace and both fighters were exhausted) but still was able to survive and drag it to a decision. Browne doesnt have the striking of AA or Hunt and doesnt have the power or relentless attack of Cain.
I admire Ben for putting more dedication in his training and expect to see him in even better shape for this fight. He beat a solid opponent in Schaub and he will want to keep the momentum going.
Browne on the other hand is on fire and a dedicated, in shape Rothwell will b his toughest fight. What I like about Browne is how much he improves and adds to his arsenal in every fight since the Kongo fight. He is def an intelligent fighter and I'm sure he knows too that Rothwell wont be an easy out. I expect both guys to come out and fight technically instead of swinging for the fences. Dont b surprised if it goes to a decision.
