|  What is next for Dollaway
CB could be a really good fighter if he could figure out how to stay away from submissions. Amir isn't the submission fighter that he will face down the road, so is Arizona Combat Sports the best camp to teach him that? If he doesn't learn some better sub defense then he will not have a long career in the UFC. Maybe he should look into Greg Jackson's camp or American Top Team. Arizona Combat Sports isn't a camp par with others and for CB to reach his potential then he needs to have better training partners then Jesse Forbes.

Amir is a black belt in Sambo, his submissions are great. Hes not gonna face that style of fighter every time hes in the UFC.

2-3 weeks of armbar defense. Seriously, some time w/ Tito Ortiz learning how to gnp from guard while defending subs would be just the thing.

I could see that being just the thing for him. Honestly I think that he could have more success then any of the other fighters on the show. He definately has the most potential.

As a guy that picked Amir from the day the cast was announced, I think CB has the most upside of anyone in the cast. CB's wrestling is already among the best in the 185 division. His stand up needs to be sharper, but that takes time. Remember he is a relative novice to MMA and certainly a novice to high level MMA. Having guys like Varner around will only help to improve his game, but he should be fine.
CB's next 2 or 3 fights will be made to order cans that he should beat handily. In about 2 years, they'll rematch the TUF finals, provided Amir is still being brought along slowly, or hasn't destroyed all of his competition.
Dolloway is a BJJ purple belt away from being a top 15 MW as it is. He'll be just fine.

CB'll do fine, especially with the division as thin as it is right now. He just needs to learn how to defend fucking armbars.

Yeah he'll be fine. Amir has great subs from what I saw. the whole time he was on the ground he was looking for one. I'm really glad he won. He proved (to me at least) that the last time wasn't a fluke.
CB needs to get some good training but so do all of the guys on that show. CB needs it a little more than most though because he's one fugly dude. Fighting is going to be his best bet.  | |

I thought CB was the third best guy on the show after Amir and the drunk that shall not be named. Was I the only one that felt he would get sub'd just as soon as he started punching from the top? I was surprised the first time they fought because he dominated most of that fight, but this time it just seemed like it was inevitable.

Was anyone else NOT that impressed with CB? As the "Goldenboy" of the season, I thought Amir was going to be the one to take it home the whole time. I didn't find him to be very sharp in any one category. His takedowns usually didn't result in much.
