Mo Smith would have been a good replacement.
I'm still interested to see how Pat does, but the more that I think about it he never did have any ground game. Takterov is probably gonna sub him easily.
Pat would be more interesting against someone who will brawl with him. I always wanted to see him and Tank rematch.
