| I haven't heard anything since Brett Rogers' last fight with Fedor many months ago, about the fighter's next opponent. Has anyone heard any news about a potential upcoming opponent, and if not, who do you guys think would be a good matchup for him? I think he should fight Antonio "Big Foot" Silva. | |

| He said he's never going to lose again so its pretty much irrelevant who he's fighting | |

| A rematch with Arlovski would be welcome by the fans to prove a point either way. Also, there was call for Lashley to take this fight, but that doesn't seem reasonable with Lashley's repeated all or nothing statements about his career path.
Shane Del Rosario is another stiff test for him; he has a well rounded skillset and is on the rise, and this fight would likely be an entertaining standup battle, and there is also Mike Kyle, who is explosive on his feet, who appeared to be zeroing in on Werdum before it hit the mat, would provide a competitive test for him.
And Dave Herman needs to either come to Strikeforce or the UFC already. He should be in these fights by now.
Lots of quality heavyweights around. | |

Lots of quality heavyweights around. I like Del Rasario. I have seen him fight three times and he has looked good. Not sure about the rest. I know Herman was making loud noise a year ago and forgot all about him. He would be a nice welcome to SF. I think both should be in a bigger fight before Fedor though. Kyle is a guy that is not near top ten and that would just show how weak SF is. Lashley is no Brock and it I know that would sell, but he doesn't deserve a fight with Fedor. | |

| Kyle is an explosive standup talent though. He serves the same role Yvel did for Dos Santos. | |

Headline fight for SF......Fedor vs MIKE KYLE. It just doesn't sound too good wolf. A headliner like that wouldn't be good for SF. | |

| Rogers likely wouldn't headline against Mike Kyle if that fight were made. Usually their non-challenger Showtime cards have multiple headliner type fights.
That is still a compelling fight. | |
