robj55;1451892 wrote:I know he is worn from all the wear and tear throughout the years but he just had a competitive fight with Gus in December and Glover is the type to stand right in front of you. With the type of power Shogun possesses he could very well win that fight. Don't forget, Glover hasn't beat any top tier fighters yet, he is smashing guys who he should be who are much worse than him.

Raw Dawgin' it;1451896 wrote:He beat Rampage. Pretty sure the fight would look like that. Rampage has power but didn't have the speed or the stamina, sounds like Shogun to me.

When notoriously lazy fighters like him and BJ want to go up a weight, they usually say it is for more exciting challenges, when really it means they won't have to train hard and cut weight. This is not a good sign for Bellator.
