Default Brandon Vera
I was wondering what you guys think of Vera... im very partial to the youngster... hes got all the talent in the world.... i dont see many guys beating him in the UFC.... Poor Frank Mir... Hes going to get hurt in this fight i just hope he dont get hurt too badly... is there anyone from the UFC in HW or LHW that can touch this WELL rounded Fighter... I say send him over to Prides OWGP and let him Teach them boys a Lesson... Bring ON FEDOR BABY!!

I think Vera has a very long and promising future in MMA. I think he'll take out Mir. Curious to see how he'd fair against a guy the likes of Kongo though.

Vera will have a decent carear when he moves down to LHW.I don't see him becoming champ anytime soon ,but Chuck's getting older and after he retires Vera could be the heir to the throne.

I don't see him being extremely successful at HW.He's too small.Randy Couture had much more talent than him and was bigger and even he couldn't deal with the size difference between some of the HWs.Vera will get dominated by someone at HW go to LHW and have a decent carear.Not the best ,but not the worst.

Vera looks really good. He is a smart well rounded fighter and I like his attitude. Definately has a long future ahead of him.

Im a big fan of his and see alot of potential, but we really won't be able to gauge how good he really is until he fights a top echelon fighter. When he fights, Kongo, Arlovski or Sylvia we will really know if hes the real deal or not. I also remember reading in an interview he only wants to fight for about 3-5 years, make enough money to open a gym and some other business ventures and live off that for his life. If this is the case, he's gonna need to get fights in to get his title shot and take advantage of every oppurtunity he gets to win it.

Vera's looked real impressive so far. I dont think he's ready for Fedor yet though!!! I think if he's only in it for 3-5 years then he needs to make his mind up on which division he wants to concentrate on and then focus on that.

vera's definitely good. i think he might be one of the top 3 heavyweights in the ufc. now, to say "bring on fedor", is crazy. he couldn't do anything against any of those pride heavyweights, but definitely a good ufc heavyweight.
