Roy Nelson vs. Derrick Lewis, what's for winner? Whats next for JDS?

[JArkin770]

I would like to see, if they make Lewis and Nelson for 200, if Lewis wins, a fight vs. Mark Hunt would be bananas. I think though Hunt would drop Lewis cause he's kind of chinny when he's hit by a good shot. Regardless, next for JDS? I'd like to see a Hunt rematch, let's see how JDS does against a better in shape recently, Mark Hunt...thoughts?

 

[Koloth]

JDS vs. Arlovski after the Overeem fight.

Barnett vs. Olynyk

Loser of Nelson/Lewis vs. Winner of Bigfoot/Struve

Loser of Bigfoot/Struve -> Feed to Ngannou

Winner of Nelson/Lewis vs. Hunt

 

[Matthew Fedler]

Win or lose against Overeem next month, I would like to see Arlovski vs JDS. It's a dream fight between former champions from two different eras, and they both happen to be top 10 fighters at the moment. It obviously favours JDS stylistically, but I thought the same thing about Travis Browne, and you can't really call a fight between two top 10 contenders a major mismatch.

I would really like to see Barnett vs Big Foot in Japan at some point. Did they ever squash their beef?

 

[Sid Arthur]

Who is gonna wanna get in there with Lewis?

I'm sure Nelson isn't afraid of anyone, the mad bastard, but I'd think he's in "money fight" land, with Anderson Silva and the Nick Hardy comeback.

 

[keylock21]

I think Hunt fighting Lewis, is a bit of a step back, for Hunto.

 

[SalvadorAllende]

JDS vs Browne or Arlovski.

The only problem that I see with AA is that if he loses his next one against Overeem, they probably give him a step down in competition. They are not risking a 3 fight losing streak in a contender.

Say what you want but Junior has fought almost everybody at HW:

(C) Werdum: checked
1. Cain: Checked x3
2. Stipe: Checked
3. Overeem: Checked
4. Rothwell: Checked
5. Its him.
6. Arlovski: pending
7. Browne: pending
8. Hunt: Checked
9. Barnett: pending
10. Mir: Checked.

 

[HI SCOTT NEWMAN]

Black Beast vs Big Country will be awesome, I hope it happens soon!! someone is going to sleep, its hard fight to predict, whoever lands the big shot first will win

 

[Sonny Qc]

If Nelson wins, I hope for The Arlovski Rematch

 

[Tormund]

Black beast vs. Nelson I think I'll actually favour the black beast at this point of Roys career, let's see JDS vs. Hunt II & Ngannou vs. Duffee.

 

[TheOneManGang]

Unless Roy gains back a little muscle that he once had mixed with his fat, I'd highly favor Lewis to win (possibly by KO). In the last few years, Roy has lost some of that punching power & strength that he once had (he's almost 40 & obviously doesn't seriously lift weights). I don't think Roy is strong enough to get the fight to the ground & crucifix Lewis like he did to Kimbo & others when he was younger & more athletic.

 

[icipher]

I don't know. Even though black beast is a legit HW unlike Nelson, I think i'd still pick nelson. Everybody respects Nelson's right hand and I think he'd find a way to land it on the chin of the black beast for a KO or TKO.

 

[Woliwo]

Roy vs Lewis is the one that should been made instead of Gonzaga IMO.
Lewis shouldn't get a someone less ranked than Roy now, and think this will be a great match.
He really had way too easy with his last opponents (fucking disappointed in Gonzaga).

Arlovski or Browne should be a good opponent for JDS next.

 

[MuyThaiElbows]

Nelson vs Lewis will be good.

JDS vs Arvloski would be ideal.

 

[MustangSally]

I would like to see, if they make Lewis and Nelson for 200, if Lewis wins, a fight vs. Mark Hunt would be bananas.

I dont think Nelson vs Nelson will happen, but if it does I expect Nelson will take it pretty easily. Either way, he should fight Rothwell next

 

[RDUBYA]

I don't think I realised just how fucking huge Lewis was until he fought Gonzaga.

His vs Roy is cool with me.

 

[Senzo Tanaka]

JDS should sit out to see what happens with Browne/Cain and Arlovski/Reem.

If Reem wins he hopefully gets the title shot. If Arlovski wins I think they'll give it to Cain if he beats Browne.

Browne and Arlovski are both good and fresh fights for JDS.

 

[Cptn1NSAN0]

TS just wants to see Hunt lol. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

I'd like to see Nelson fight Lewis... But has anyone heard anything about Nelson lately? Hasn't he been inactive since getting KO'd by Hunt?

While were on the topic of HW matchups, I'd also like to see Curtis Blaydes vs Tim Johnson and Ngannou vs Erohkin.

Roy vs Lewis is the one that should been made instead of Gonzaga IMO.
Lewis shouldn't get a someone less ranked than Roy now, and think this will be a great match.

Well it was originally Gonzaga vs Magomedov but Ruslan pulled out with injury and Lewis stepped up.

 

[Concrete Whale]

Nelson will sleep Lewis in round one old school style. Then he can fight Browne or Arlovskii.
