Dosen't Roy Nelson look smart after looking at Mike

[Xostile]

He looks extremely smart to me, but lol @ Dana staring at him like he has no clue what he's talking about. I hope Roy takes this just because Dana hates him so much.

Dana admitted that he doesn't like Roy. So, no matter what he does it's going to rub him the wrong way. Roy just needs to advance to the finals and let his wins speak for him. Although I'd hate to see who Dana pairs him up against once he gets into the UFC. Duffy maybe. Roy will definitely not get any showcase fights.

Roy's going to get his rematch with Rothwell as his first fight in the UFC after he wins the show. Dana's just mad that Roy isn't starstruck and acting desperate for a contract like the rest of the fighters.

I dont think Roy and Dana get along because Roy has the same attitude as Dana just without all the F-bombs. People don't always get along with other people of the same personality type, especially when its THAT arrogant personality type. But it is that very personality type that makes them successful at what they do.

All that said, I actually think Wren can take Roy. He seems like one of the very few up and comers on the show.

This. Why would he stand and trade with someone who would have possibly beat him standing? He did the smart thing. The problem people had was that he was supremely arrogant afterwards acting like he accomplished something. The guy is an asshole.

I really doubt it. If he beat him any other way people would not criticize Nelson. They would make excuses like Kimbo had no ground game, etc, but no one would fault Nelson for going for the W. He opened himself up for criticism by the extremely unimpressive way he won. The fact that he wasn't doing enough damage such that Herb Dean saw fit to let him go at it for a full minute in the first round without stopping it, emphasizes just how lackluster the whole thing was. Had he won decisively, by sub, which I'm sure he could have since he put Kimbo into the crucifix twice, then he would have looked a lot better.

Unless your name is Mark Hunt.

Does Dana forget Rashad's first TUF fight? It was pathetic, but safe. It worked for him, he won the show and became light heavy weight champ. Roy is following his model. Dana can be a retard at times.
