Paul Daley & Stefan Struve.

Paul Daley will be knockin' heads around for a long time... as long as he doesn't get taken to the ground.

Stefan Struve is really fun to watch.
I don't see him 1 punch KOing anyone for a while, but his freakish height and Subs are really fun to see others deal with(unless you're Dos Santos).

I was happiest to see Paul Daley come to the UFC, because I had seen him fight several times before. Also real happy to see Roy Nelson make the big time.

I have been most impressed so far by Paulo Thiago, having not watched many Jungle Fights in Brazil, I hadn't seen or heard much of this guy before he entered the UFC. Hope he keeps it up.

Struve has been pretty impressive, but unless he keeps fighting guys who are out of the top 25...maybe more like top 30 or 40, then he will have a problem.

He still needs to improve his punching, kicking and wrestling in a division with guys who are a lot bigger and stronger than him.

I like what I've seen from Little Nog'...


Kimbo simply doesn't have the MMA foundation to be much more than a sideshow in the UFC.

Especially when compared to what Lesner brings to the table- physicality, wrestling pedigree.

From what I have seen, Daley and Rogerio Nogueira.

Kimbo is not a fighter, he is just a rating machine.
Nelson is a fatty that will be destroyed by any Top fighter.

T3ST1CL3 is on a distinguished road

Nelson can always loose the weight, I'm sure he will eventually. Fat is just excess weight - which seeing as he's a smaller hw isn't really relevant, it's only an issue if he's going to lhw.

Semtex has power, speed, and is also technically good. But most importantly he's British

Thiago is good - but having bounced off Fitch, I don't see him ever getting past the top guys in ww. I'd take Josh in the rematch.

Stefan is a lost cause - it's a bit late for learning... essentially everything. His striking is bad, his wrestling is bad, his subs are ok but he takes a lot of damage getting there - he's Eric Schafer at hw.
