What's next for Rothwell?

[Supatune]

He was just on the MMA Hour, made some interesting comments on how he could have pulled out of the JDS fight because he had some major health issues going on but that isn't the kind of guy he is, didn't want to make too many excuses and said that he fought the best version of JDS and still went 5 rounds with him, also said he probably shouldn't have taken the fight in hindsight, at the time he probably did deserve the next title shot and this has set him back

He wants one of Stipe/Doom/Browne/Cain, preferably the winner but he will most likely be given the loser. Also said he would be interested in an Arlovski fight.

I think he did the UFC a solid with taking on JDS in that card and should definitely be given the winner of Browne/Cain or the loser of Stipe/Doom. He did look like shit in that last fight but I'm inclined to believe him when he says he had a very real psychical limitation. Rothwell is a little eccentric but always comes off like a good genuine dude. Hope he bounces back from the JDS loss.

Who do you think he should fight next?

Arlovski make sense (tho that might be the end for AA in the UFC if he lose again..

If not The Winner of Nelson Vs Lewis.
would like to watch Nelson Vs Rothwell 2 tbh

 

[mudrubble]

He waits for this threat to get to 2 pages.

Then he clicks into page 2.

What's next for you?

Whats next?

Do it a little dance, make a little love, get down tonight.

 

[Coconut Joe]

I don't want Rothwells weird ass anywhere near the title.

 

[Spycho]

...so he whipped out a bunch of excuses to clarify that he isn't a guy that makes excuses?

Give him Arlovski. Or Stipe or Browne when they lose, but they'll probably match those two up.

 

[MadHouse]

no sense matching him with a guy that he could easily k.o like Arlovski

i say let em fight Hunt or Travis

Big Country

 

[HelloJapan]

Get back to the Go Go choke.

 

[Yukarin]

I don't think "I don't want to make excuses" has ever not been followed with excuses. No idea how long that went but it I started progressively liking him less and less as it went on.

Winner of Nelson/Lewis sounds good. Browne/Velasquez loser too

 

[ChaelSonnen]

Arlovski make sense (tho that might be the end for AA in the UFC if he lose again..

Yeah, because cutting a man for losing 3 fights in a row against the best of the best HWs in the UFC makes sense.

 

[cumafish]

feed him one of the newcomers, if Ben wins he gets back on track, if not the newcomer gets a big boost.

 

[BeerAndKush]

A book.
A book of excuses.

Rothwell vs Hunt 2 sounds nice
He hasn't fought with Browne though

 

[Sonny Qc]

it's more the 9 out of 12 loss by KO that make him more likely to get cut...

 

[MacDuffle]

porn

 

[Mixfight]

Lovski vs Rothwell.

 

[ookii]

He'll probably get Andrei but I don't want to see Andrei lose again so I wouldn't mind seeing him against Browne(if he loses to Cain)

 

[Philly253]

He looked as mediocre as JDS looked great last fight, he's gonna take someone's head off next fight. He should fight the loser of Werdum Vs Stipe

 

[Which Doctor]

He'll be fighting in an openweight tourney along w/ the Wolfman, Dracula, and Frankenstein. Winner faces Creature from teh Black Lagoon for the Interim belt.
