Good one. I think he should be the heavy favorite over Shane Roller.  I wonder what he means when he said that he got a "marketing deal" with his new contract...?

Melvin's really come along since his TUF days. I can't see Roller getting past him either.

It seems like his whole attitude has changed.

He doesn't act like the same little punk-ass that threw the tantrum when Clementi subbed him. He grew up quite a bit.

I'm really excited again to watch Guillard fight, he seems to have his momentum back.

Guillard was dominant versus Dunhaam indeed. Roller is good but Guillard is too quick and too powerful for him.
