A UFC 143 heavyweight showdown between Roy Nelson and Fabricio Werdum is in tap for Super Bowl weekend, according to MMAWeekly.com sources.

Nelson's (16-6) UFC tenure was teetering on the brink following back-to-back losses to Junior dos Santos and Frank Mir, but he bounced back strong in his most recent fight. Nelson took the fight to Mirko "Cro Cop Filipovic at UFC 137, likely ending the Croatian's career via a third-round TKO stoppage.

i see this ending just like Roy vs Mir...

i will admit that i still haven't seen Roy vs CC, so i am judging him as of the Mir fight... fat, out of shape and lazy!

He lost like 15lbs or something like that. But still fat. Interesting fight, wonder what the line will be?

He lost like 25lbs and looked in much better shape against Cro Cop.

Really interesting fight. I think Werdum could take a sloppy standup affair

Pretty even fight. Don't see it going to the ground. Nelson has the the edge standing, but Werdum is a lot better with his hands and kicks than people give him credit for IMO.

This should be a good fight but I think Roy takes the win. Roys gonna keep the fight on the feet and score on some big punches.

Werdum's standup has improved, but Nelson holds the power advantage. Should be interesting.

Well he has had only 1 fight as the newer, slimmer Roy. He won that fight.

I'd rather Mir vs. Werdum but it'll suffice.
