Rosa has proven to be the real deal in Strikeforce. I'd like to see what he can do in the UFC.

The weigh-in's should tell all on this one....Thats when I know truely who I am going to pick, Rosa gassed out against Beltran... Now with cutting all that weight, I dunno how he's gonna do.  Don't know the newcomers style... Anyone seen this guy fight and what is his strengths and weaknesses? I wonder what Rosa's record is at 205?

Prediction: wrong Lucas   wrong Decision  

I believe he's 10-3 at 205. Something around that. Hamman and Feijao are 2 of the losses though, and those guys are solid. I don't really know anything about Lucas, except both his losses are by submission. Rosa is well rounded and tough to finish.

Prediction: correct Rosa   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

Rosa should win this fight. Hell he might be able to make a run at the UFC HW title. He's got all the potential in the world. This will either be his run at the UFC HW title, or there will be another HW from Arizona Combat Sports making his name in the UFC.

Prediction: wrong Lucas   wrong Decision  

He's not good enough to make a run at the title he'd get crushed by most guys in HW.... He lost to Beltran.. He's cutting down to LHW for this fight... which means he's moving out of that division for a reason

@ mmapicker2 - I didn't know that this fight was LHW. Hmmm.........learn something new everyday. Well who knows, maybe Rosa might make a name for himself at LHW. No matter what, you can't count Aaron Rosa out of any fight. I made that mistake once, and I won't ever do that again.

Probably a boring fight. I think Lucas will get the L'n'P decision here.

Going with Lucas, Big weight cut for Rosa, against a two time all american colliegate wrestler who only has losses to the arm collector and richard hale.
