Chris Leben at WW ??

I read on MMAweekyl that Mike Swick will be fighting J.Goulet instead of Chris Leben at WW ?

How would chris do at WW? Do you think he would find Success like Deigo and Koscheck in dropping down in weight ?

"In the thread Jonathan stated, "Wanted to fight Mike Swick to replace Leben at 170 for the UFC Fight Night in September, but he refused. Is he scared to go to sleep against me? I will beat his ass..."

same results, so long as you fight the right game plan, and dont get sucked into a brawl any top guy at 170 beats him.

Leben seems like he'd have a hard time making 170, the boy is built thick, real barrel chested.

He could drop a few L-B's and make weight. As far as Chris being barrel chested, I think you may have him mistaken with another fighter. If Sherk can make 155 Leben can make 170.
