Big Ben and Gonzaga matchup intriguing..

[STRONGERTHANALL]

I doubt either fighter will ever be a true contender, but this a battle of the big men and almost all heavyweight fights are intriguing to watch. Who takes it..

I've got rothwell bye sloppy decision or TKO in the 2nd.

 

[Cantalope]

If BJJ Gonzaga shows up I think he can win but K1 Gabe loses.

 

[bonghead420]

I got Gonzaga by decision.

 

[edirpfc**]

i believe gonzaga will win.

 

[RacMan]

If gonzaga fights smart he should get a sub in either the first or second.

 

[Pancake Sprawl]

In the Schaub fight Rothwell looked to be in the best shape he's ever been in. I think he's finally refined his training, its a great match up but I got big Ben by KO.

 

[Tang Hermit]

BJJ Gonzaga

ManBearPig! Also, does anyone remember how before the Mark Hunt fight, Rothwell said that he's wiping the slate clean and should be considered an 0-0 fighter? So he's 1-1 now.

 

[Silverstar17]

I think it

 

[WalkenWouldOwn]

If BJJ Gonzaga shows up I think he can win but K1 Gabe loses.

I agree with this. Rothwell has never fought someone as good as Napao on the mat and I think if Gonzaga fights smart, clinches, and looks for a TD early he will advance position and finish the fight.

But if he brawls or kickboxes it's up in the air.

I expect Gonzaga to finish the fight but if zombie Rothwell shows up you never know what could happen...Napao could get ko'd

1-1 eh?

I say put him up against Heath Herring and give him a title shot if he wins!

 

[TheApolloKid]

BJJ Gonzag should be able to handle this. i doubt he will show up tho..

 

[Enlightened Ego**]

rothwell by vicious knockout

 

[HaulParris]

1-1 eh?

I see what you did there, very clever. Also, since I brought up that slightly relevant factoid about Rothwell in my previous post, here's an interesting factoid on Gonzaga - check out on Wikipedia what his full last name is: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gabriel_Gonzaga

Yeah, but Rothwell got hurt yet again after the Schaub fight. I think if Rothwell is in shape, relatively injury free, he can win if he keeps it standing. But he has had like 4 fights in the past 4 years.

Gonzaga should be trying to work his way in and get the fight down to the ground.

I knew that, actually!

One good turn deserves another:

 

[WalkenWouldOwn]

I know Rothwell was legally dead when this happened but man, if ADCC Hunt can get this position on him a world class black belt should be able to finish the fight pretty quickly. PLEASE GRAPPLE NAPAO!

schaub is getting knocked out left and right. Gonzaga wins standing or grappling
