With a fight rumored for UFC 116 against the towering Cheick Kongo, The Ultimate Fighter Season 10 champion Roy Nelson (15-4 MMA, 2-0 UFC) recently paid a visit to the island of Oahu to corner a few of his students from his school including former TUF housemate Scott Junk (6-2-1 MMA) at the inaugural "Galaxy MMA: Worlds Collide" event on May 1 from the Neal S. Blaisdell arena in Honolulu, Hawaii.
FiveOuncesofPain.com had the chance to sit down with "Big Country" during the event's press conference to discuss his training partner, and his upcoming bout.
During the filming of TUF season 10, Roy Nelson and Scott Junk developed a friendship that would carry on after the show. Looking to improve as a fighter, Junk enlisted the help of Nelson and took a trip to The Country Club in Las Vegas to work with Big Country.
"Scott just wanted to up his game," said Nelson, who went on to say that he felt he 'could help improve Junk's fundamentals...and make his game a little bit better.'
When asked if Junk sought out Nelson's help because Big Country owns a previous TKO victory when they faced each other in the IFL, Nelson replied, "It just happens that he [Junk] is fighting Fabiano...it's just a coincidence."
When speaking about his rumored upcoming fight with Cheick Kongo at UFC 116 on July 3rd, Nelson was quick to respond, "I believe that is still part of the rumor mill, cause I think I'm supposed to be fighting Frank Mir too."

even though it is coming from Roy himself, most of us can agree this would be a great fight.

Frank Mir will crush him, and then will clean out the Heavyweight division. Not only will he clean out the UFC's but he'll get special permission from Dana to clean out Strikeforce's division too. Very Happy
