MeatHead whats next?

I think he looks alot better than most thought he would but do u guys think he is ready to step up the competition yet? If so who do u guys think it should be against? His skill level is pretty good for being a big guy. He moves well, has good hands, and his footwork is nice and sets up the leg kicks he is awesome at. I think he has a shot to be really good in the future if he really progresses at the pace he has been since the show.

Rothwell? Kongo?

I was thinking pretty much the same thing. Kongo makes alot of sense at this point. How do u think he would do against Kongo?

Considering how bad Kongo looked his last time out, and factor in a pretty big weight adv, I'd take meathead by KO.

Meat would destroy Kongo.

Who would u give him next then Wolf?

Kongo

Kongo is pretty much a gate keeper so it makes sense. Kongo is good but if Meathead wants to be a contender he needs to KO Kongo.

Or just beat him. It would mark his 5th pro fight son.

I think a KO over him would show he is really moving up the ladder fast and is really progressing, but u are a right a win would be good also lol. maybe im getting alittle ahead of myself.

I'd like Pat Berry or Jon Madsen also.

I think him and Pat Barry seem to be buddies so i dont know if they will fight but Madsen would be a good next opponent.

Mike Russow or Ben Rothwell would be My choices.

Meat actually has a lot of potential, NFL athletism, he's huge and moves lite on his feet, interested to see how his career progresses. Funny how that TUF season is producing some pretty nice talent, Meat, Schaub, Madsen.

Next fight, hmm, to bad they can't make Meat vs Schaub but they'll probably avoid that one.

I'd be fine with Madsen, Barry, Rothwell, Kongo, Russow any of those would be cool.

Madsen is probably a more balanced opponent for him. Barry needs to fight Kongo, Meat/Mad would give either a nice bump.

Aren't Meathead and Pat Barry buddies? They were messing with eachother in the post fight interviews.

yeah, i doubt we see that fight... kongo would be a good fight but i dont know if he's ready for it yet

Kongo would cower in fear of Meat's standup. But atleast we would see his wrestling tested

Somebody that has legendary stand-up, has a wrestling game to them, has a good ground-and-pound game. I think it would be fun. I think it would be a real trip to get in there and see how well I can fare against him. I respect the hell out of him. I've met him several times, and he's always been extremely cool and very, very polite. I think it would be a lot fun."

Kongo it is!!!

Madsen is a bad fight for Meahead. He would grind out a decision.

Kongo

Kongo and Meathead would be a nice fight.
