    If Carwin doesn't gas, he's knocking Roy out.

    What a great fight. Two guys that are tough as hell with great chins.

    The problem is that Nelson really doesn't want to prove his chin versus Carwin. Despite having the whiskers to take big shot from JDS, Cro Cop, Mir and Werdum without getting knocked out, I think Carwin is a different animal with his punching power.

    Roy better hope he can avoid Carwin's big shots like JDS did and tire him out.

    While it WON'T B Easy, REED is Fairly CONFIDENT Nelson Wins this Fight...JDS has BETTER Stand Up than Carwin & On Top of that, if Nelson Can Get Carwin to the Ground, it's Probably a WRAP...

    I like Roy but he's a gate keeper at best. Carwin should beat him

    Carwin has excellent power. He doesn't have the delivery, timing, or speed that JDS has, but I'd bet he has more power. Roy doesn't want to taste that very often.

    Exactly. But the point is that Nelson GETS hit. Everyone touches his chin.

    Against Carwin that's bad news.

    JDS had the boxing skill to absolutely box circles around Carwin. He managed to avoid any big shots from Shane. Nelson doesn't have that ability. He will get hit, and he will get finished.

    Well, the big question will be rust for Carwin. By the time this fight happens it will have been a year and half since Carwin last fought.

    JDS doesn't punch as hard as Carwin.

    Someone will get injured that will be that. But if somehow some way they fight. Carwin knocks him out hard.
