|  Anyone else think Andrei will lose tonite at Strikeforce 6/6/09?
I have a feeling we might see Andrei lose tonite. Yes, he is technically better than Rogers, but if Rogers can land the right punch on Andrei's glass jaw... I think we will see another Loss on Andrei's record. Your thoughts?

Rogers has around the same chance that Buentello had at 55 back in the day, except I think Buentello is the finer striker of the two. I think Rogers has little more than a puncher's chance.

Your thoughts? | Arlovski has his way with up and coming fighters.IMO Rogers is in a world a' hurt 2nite and AA will make an awesome KO highlight out a' him.
WOW! I was 100% wrong on this one! I don't know if AA is washed up but it looks like Rogers is ready for Alistair Overeem and maybe even the Fedor/Barnett winner or both!

I think if Andrei tries to stand and bang with Rogers it will be a short night. Andrei will have to stick and move. If Rogers gets full mount it will be over to.

Arlovski's a talented striker, but I honestly feel his biggest flaw is his ground game and if anybody saw the Nelson fight can see that he's seriously flawed there, where he can really be GNP'd and guys can run their BJJ all over him and he's virtually hand tied, even against less than stellar foes.

Wow! My gut feeling was right! Sadly. Andrei is extremely talented, but he has proven once again he cannot take a punch to the jaw. So much for adding Rogers to his highlight reel hahaha. Andrei's Jiu jitsu is also a big issue, but his glass jaw is his biggest problem. If the Nelson fight wouldn't have gotten stood up, Andrei would've have gotten TKO'd. I wonder what this does for his boxing carreer.

Yeah had a feeling this was going to happen but really did not want it to happen. I thought the stoppage was premature until I saw Arlovski's eyes and was like ,"DAMN that mf'ers out cold," <<<< Just like that too, lol. Grim looks like "The Real Deal" but I will hold my jusgement until I see his ground game.

Josh Barnett said it best, "Andrei has a bad habit of backing up and NOT moving his head"
