| This is a fight Mirko should easily win if his recent performances motivate him. | |

| These two have fallen so far off that this fight should be the #9 fight on an 11 fight card. This is barely a blip today, IMO. And when did Cro Cop unretire again? Are they going to keep him in a safe room with no belts and shoelaces leading to the fight?... Pathetic. | |

| Rothwell is a top 15 talent still, getting brutalized by Blanket Valesquez is no shame for anyone who still claims to be the nearly fully extinct "HW striker". CC is washed up, undersized and lacks the fire. CC has sung this song over and over after bad fights. Rothwell should be the favorite here. | |

| It's the way he was brutalized, Wolf. He didn't show up for that fight at all... You could have kicked his ass that night. I have zero interest in seeing either fighter at this point. Buried on the undercard will suit me just fine. | |

I agree these 2 have fallen but Cro Cop much farther. Rothwell fought terrible against Cain also and looked so slow it was crazy. Either way i guess this is like a retirement fight lol. Loser is done in the UFC especially if its Cro Cop. | |

| Rothwell was never anything special to begin with. I dont see how he has really fallen off. He would have never beaten Arlovski or Cain. | |

| Getting KO'd by one of the best HW strikers in history and laid on by one of the best HW wrestlers in the world is no knock on a guy with his skill set.
He fought like anyone else does against Cain. Laid on. Laid on. Laid on. Punched. Punched. Punched. Punched. Laid on. Punched. Laid on. Punched. This is Cain's MO and will be his horrible unaesthetic for his whole career against anyone who also isn't a wrestler.
No different than Kongo's fight outside of a few less mistakes. He did exactly as expected honestly. Rothwell is still a good HW talent. | |
