@fresno .. I think he meant Velasquez isnt going anywhere as in hes staying champ.. Thats why he said someone young he means later in their careers.

@Fresno i agree with you, thats the reason i said someone young, maybe those guys won't be around anymore or they won't be at their prime, also for sake of argument, say some other guy in a couple of years beat CV or JDS, they wont be champs and struve could win the belt, Struve has a good kikboxing skills and good ju-jitsu he's not the best but he is improving, he's young, and think about something, the top 5 in HW are almost 30 or over 30 they won't be around for long, and the new up an comers, most of them are hitters, but lack other skills, Struve is a more well-rounded, even though i don't see him as a champ anytime soon. i dont; think any of the guys out there will beat Velasquez just yet, but if someone can its JDS or Overeem in that order. but I don't thiink they will
