| He is a hard guy to pin point. Where is he at in the HW division? Dana wants you to think he is firmly in the top 10 now. But is he? He seems to be constantly unappreciated but he was knocked out by all the upper level guys he has faced. I just don't like how he matchups up vs the top of the division.
I think he would lose in a fight with the following(already has lost to some of these): JDS, Cain, Reem, Cormier, Browne, Fedor, Barnett, Mir, Nelson, Bigfoot, Hunt, Werdum and Big Nog. | |

I kind of like the fight he was originally scheduled to have, Mark Hunt. | |

| Struves 's streak is impressive but it has come at a tier below that of true contender thus far. He needs at minimum 1 big win (top  for anyone to really consider him an actual contender. I think he should rematch Roy Nelson after the Carwin fight falls apart or fight Bigfoot win or lose against Browne before he gets a big, real #1 contender fight. | |

I think maybe a fight with Big Nog(if Nog wins his next fight) might be a good matchup, or like mentioned before Mark Hunt. | |

| At 24 I still think he is a couple years away from his peak. I'd like to see him continue fighting the level of guys he has been fighting. I think it's pretty clear what would happen if he fought a top 5 guy right now, so I wanted create any type of path that leads him in that direction. | |

I wonder if he is healthy enough to fight Gonzaga next weekend? | |

I would love to see that fight and I actually think Struve would beat him. I think Cormier would smash him with ease. He could take him down whenever he wanted and smash his face into the canvas. But Struve is higher on the food chain then Meathead and AA. | |

| Cormier is either the 3rd or 4th best HW in the world. He would blast Struve. I want to see Steve against either Hunt or Meat next | |

I agree about Hunt. That is who he was suppose to fight anyways. Perfect matchup. Winner gets a top 5ish matchup. | |
