I see Reljic being a Gonzaga of that 205 lb division...

He'll win some fights no one thinks he will but he'll lose others that he should win....

I want to see his Jiu Jitsu which I hear is top notch...and I want to see how he reacts when someone is on top of him beating him up...

That being said, i would want to watch it
Some other possible opponents for Goran would be lesser known LHWs like Irvin, Bonnar, or Lambert.

That dude was fuckin expolsive,his kicks looked like something out of a movie,i mean Wilson is one of the better LHW's in the UFC and Goran stopped him with strikes.His striking was exacly like Mirko's in his prime.

Im gonna keep an eye on this guy.

Reljic needs more training. His jab and kicks were great but his defense and chin looked suspect.

He needs to set his kicks up some more. But no doubt he looked badass in his debut. And striking isn't even his specialty; perhaps he'll be an LHW Cro Cop with a ground game?

Check out Zelg Galesic(I betting him to be the DREAM middle weight champion) too he is ridiculous he is like CC too with a great ground game. It's funny how Croatians all have a similar feel to them

Someone needs to ban this McMuffin idiot.

I'd like to see Goran vs Sokou or something like that pretty soon.

I completely agree. While I was watching him everyone thought he looked awesome... his offense did, but man was he lucky he wasn't fighting someone better. He really leaves himself open and got rocked pretty bad on a few occasions. But if he can clean up his defense he will really be a force. He looked huge BTW.
