The UFC re-signs Struve...

http://mmajunkie.com/news/20822/ufc-inks-heavyweight-stefan-struve-to-new-four-fight-deal.mma

Look for him to go 1-3 as he steps up in competition in his next four fights only to be sent back to the minor leagues...

BTW - No pun intended for those puns...

He's still a bit awkward and slow in his stand up and makes for an easy target for almost anyone in the top-20. He might mature with time, but right now he's still a project.

Im a fan of struve. I really like him as a prospect. But I think given his age, and relative lack of physical development, he should be in the minors. Get bigger, get stronger, then move up to tangle with the big boppers.

He's had some rough losses already, and he hasn't even faced any wrestlers yet, I just don't see the rush in feeding him to in their prime heavies.

I dont ever see him panning out to anything .. so eh. We will see. I would have definitely resigned him though, so I dunno why that is breaking big news.

Sarcasm even fails on the internet when it's as plain as the nose on Mac Danzigs face

Struve is okay, his center of gravity isn't in the best place for him to be a fighter though.

The difference there is Sturve fights at HW so he could add 25lbs and still be a HW. Hill doesn't have that kind of luxury. Also this kid is only 22 years old. Give him time to add some more power to that length and he has a huge upside. 22 years old? Ton of potential there.

Struve is a solid up and comer, not sure why you'd dog him, oh no he's lost to top guys...

Kid could easily put on 25+lbs of muscle

Re-sign Struve but cut..... crap I've completely forgotten that heavyweights name who was just cut ?

Mustapha Al Turk is coming to Strikeforce, Fedor better watch his back.
