    I personally think Chek Kongo looks a lot more deadly than he actually is - huge guy but although he beat Cro Cop well (who was dreadful), I wasn't overly impressed by his performance - I like the look of the new guy Minautoro Noguera (sp?), he looks like he could do some damage but I think my favourite heavyweight is still the Pitbull Arlovski
    Mate that new guy Minautoro Noguera is a MMA Hall of Famer probally the most dangerous Heavy weight around ... moves more like a light heavy weight, his twin brother is just as dangerous

    Kongo is looking like the real deal alright .. I hope he sends Tim packing

      Can't wait for 78 when Bisping and the UF2 winner slog it out...should be good
      Bisping is the most over rated fighter in the UFC. I hope Evans kicks his ass and I think he will.

        I don't think Congo will knock Time Silvia around the way he did to CroCop.
        Speaking of fighters who are unsure of what the future holds, what now of CroCop.

          **** me, cannot wait!!!!
          Yes, They mentioned that on the night, or hinted it may become a reality. I think it is the wrong fight for Wanderlie and the only reason it is happening, may be because of Liddells lucrative contract, after all, he has just lost his last two fights.

            I agree,
            I can't understand why there is no talk of Arlovski returning for a title shot, and yet Silvia is back at the top of the queue again. Arlovski it seems, has shot down the pecking order, maybe he is not, but it certainly seems that way, as the talk is centered around the same fighters. Arlovski is a better fighter than Silvia easily, and I am sure he would beat him if he met him again.

              I know we're going right off topic but one guy I really like the look of is Roger Huerta - would love to see him take on a top drawer opponent to see if he could compete at the very top level.

              Not sure if anyone saw his last fight but he was sitting in the middle of the ring and his opponent had him from behind - as he couldn't see him he started looking at the big screen to check his positioning and got in a few decent punches before Crane realised what he was up to - great to see someone doing the unusual
              At a football club there's a holy trinity- the players the manager and the supporters, Directors dont come into it, they are only there to sign the cheques " - Bill Shankly

                Good to see him using his head alright, would like to see him fight BJ Penn if BJ is fighting at the same weight. There are plenty of tallented fighters in that division.

                      Really like the look of him but little premature to say that mate

                      Haven't seen him against a top name yet, certainly looks to have it all but haven't seen him tested or up against it yet - that's when we'll be able to judge how good he is

                        Your wrong I am right ... I thank you

                        Name me one fighter more talented than him in that division .. He would take the current champion to school

                        Undefeated in 20 odd fights .. He is a mainly stand up knock out artist his last fight was against a Black Belt Grace Jujitsu World champion And they both put on a Master class with Heurta coming out on top, one of the most technical fights I have ever seen

                        On the front cover of Sports illustrated, the first MMA fighter ever to do so and a fighter with good grace who always puts on one hell of a show. He has been beating top top competition one after the other ..
                        Love the guy

                          I never said I am wrong and you are right, just I do agree with homer1, he is unproven at the very highest level, and has not reached the top of the food chain at his weight division yet. I do think he will reach that level, but at present, he is far from being the best MMA fighter I have ever seen.
                          As for fighters that could test him:
                          Spencer Fisher
                          Hermes Franca
                          Kenny folrian
                          Melvin guillard
                          Joe Lauzon
                          BJ Penn
                          Sean Sherk
                          Joe Stevenson
                          there are more names but i cant see the rest of the list of light weights on the UFC website. All are capable of giving Huerta a decent fight IMO.

                            In saying that, any fighter on his day can win / lose when not expected to - evident in the number of new title holders in the past 12 months in various divisions

                              thats the beauty of MMA, styles make fights, and we have a wide variety of styles in MMA. None of the names I mentioned, IMO would be a huge under dog against Huerta, Penn and Sherk would probably be favourites. I think guillard, despite his recent loss to Joe Stevenson, would be one to watch too, he has explosive stand up(currently suspended for cocaine abuse).

                                Spencer Fisher - The key word being a good test
                                Hermes Franca - Naa a few decent results but not top notch
                                Kenny folrian - He would murder Florian ... and I like Kenny
                                Melvin guillard - Naa another decent test But he would destroy this guy many many levels above him
                                Joe Lauzon - I really like this guy and maybe in 1 years time but another victim waiting to happen
                                BJ Penn - The only guy who in my opinion could stand with this guy and fight of the year material
                                Sean Sherk - A one trick pony Wrestler - his BJJ would counter this take em to the fence and hug em to death style see below
                                Joe Stevenson - A one trick pony Wrestler


                                Jesus thats some division though ..
