    He has scored several impressive wins in the ufc over contenders like vera and Gonzaga. The title is there for the taking, Nog can't keep going forever, and I don't know if any HW contender is better, now that Arlovski and Sylvia are gone.

    Maybe he can but his win over Vera was not impressive at all.

    Really? What exactly has he improved at? He's improved at beating weaker opponents that's about it.

    Werdum couldn't do shit with Arlovski, no way is he beating Nog. The win over Vera was a pretty crappy stoppage, and Gonzaga did nothing after kicking Cro Cop in the head so that win isn't that impressive either.

    I see nothing in Werdum that makes me think he'll ever be champ.
