Can Brett Rogers bait Fedor into standing with him?

Obviously Fedor can win this one on the ground easily, but does Fedor try to prove a point standing after Brett's shit talking?

Brett is no challenge to Fedor standing or on the ground. Gary Goodridge/Zulu part 3.

Rogers > ZULU & Goodridge combined

Yeah, Brett will bait Fedor into knocking his ass out. Brett stands little to no chance against Fedor no matter where this fight goes.

If this fight stays standing Brett has a very real shot.

Brett's standup technique isn't better than Goodridge who was on a winning streak at the time.

he has big fast hw hands but these big guys are too slow for Fedor.

I hope this fight stays standing. Like I said before I think Rogers come in with a ton of confidence in his hands, moves in to attack Fedor and gets put down and pounded on.

baiting Fedor into standing... as if Rogers has some kind of advantage there LOL!

hey discovery you jacked my avatar! lol


on topic though, Brett Rodgers has a good chance standing. he has fast, powerful, and deadly hands. problem is Fedor's hands are that much more fast, powerful, and deadly. Rodgers won't win. i am curious as to see the odds on the fight seeing as nobody is giving Brett a chance. dropping 100 on him wouldnt be a terrible bet.

but goodridge was alot closer to Fedor's weight then he was to Grim's weight. So I don't see the comparison.

People overrate Rogers

Rogers is a lot like Cain, Dos Santos and Carwin. Impressive against cans and one good fighter. He has the most impressive win by far but the least established pedigree.

nah we just acknowledge that he is dangerous. hey for all we know he has a good ground game and thus he may be underrated.

Or he's fought literally nobody, and the one good fighter he did fight and beat, not only took him lightly and has one of the worst chins in MMA, it was also just a flash of a fight which leaves more questions than answers.

That or much like Utah playing Bama last year, after hearing for weeks on end they were going to lose, came out and beat the shit out of the Crimson Tide. I can see it happening, but I wouldn't bet my lunch money on it. Fedor, 1st rd. KO

I can hear the promo for this one in my sleep "Two great can killers collide at Strikeforce"
