Does Marquardt have the ability to shake up Welterweight?

[RyRoBBBJJMT]

Marquardt's back and he's going to shake it up, the only question is how badly?
Where do you put him in the UFC and who do you think a good return match would be?

 

[The Renegade]

Well he is definitely a lot more dangerous than Kampmann in my opinion so he is way up there, should make some big waves

This all day! Nate will be a force no matter where he is.

def. a top 5 WW...hell get a title shot and hell lose to GSP

 

[Bigmanbud]

Marquardt has the ability to shake things up as much as Fitch does

 

[LHWBelt]

Marquardt's a tough out for anyone, always has been.

 

[Dezolis**]

I think Nate has the advantage over everyone at WW except GSP and Rory (I'd say the odds are even for that one).

Rory vs Nate for #1 contender would be epic.

[BigGucciSosa]

2 wins and he gets a title shot

 

[MixMartialFarts]

Can and will, but can he do it without pissing hot?

 

[Eddingtonsons]

Top 5 easy - cannot wait to see him vs either Fitch, Rory, Hendricks, Silva, Maia (again), GSP or Condit

broke fitch shook up eric silva's career

 

[SixStringSeal]

He's awesome. He's only been KO'ed one time and that was to Anderson back in 2007.

He's also a fighter who can go the distance to win and do so in any position.

Broke Fitch has a legit shot at GSP.

Nate will win the title when he gets his shot. He is a killer, and the fact that he is confident he can beat GSP after training with him for several years speaks volumes.

 

[zzzzz]

I'd like to see Nate vs Hendricks for a title eliminator. Nate would win and then lose to GSP.

 

[RyRoBBBJJMT]

I agree I think that means in practice he was doing pretty well.

What a stupid thing to say. Fitch got destroyed in the first fight and has been knocked out and fought to a draw since. Suddenly he can beat gsp though? Great logic

 

[Fruits]

The UFC is probably going to feed him the loser of one of the fights at UFC 157, or perhaps keep him as a ready-to-go replacement for one of those fights (assuming he wins next week, of course).

 

[76Knockout]

Yes, he can be a top 5 WW imo
