Rodrigues is a fighter I will be keeping track of because he is interesting inside and outside of fighting. His 4 wins in 2021 have all been impressive. He has earned stoppages in 3 of the 4 fights. The only fight he didn't finish early was his UFC debut which was on 2 weeks notice after winning the LFA Middleweight Championship. What a great year he has had. I also find him very genuine when he speaks of his Christian faith. I hope to see him climb the ranks.

I have to question his chin after his losses but I root for anyone nicknamed Robocop.

After watching his fights in the UFC, I think his loss to Williams was an outlier. He has gone 5-1 since and demonstrated a good chin in his loss to Petrosyan.

I like Obama but I don't think his ceiling is high. He's explosive but doesn't have the gastank to underwrite what makes him dangerous over the long haul.Gets hit a lot, his grappling looks good until it doesn't. I dunno. I think he hangs around the top 10 but I don't see him taking the belt MW is a shark tank,

He has had some great stand up wars and does he come from a grappling background?

I’m glad someone else appreciates Robocop. He’s one of may favorite fighters. Well rounded skill set and brings the fight every time

That's the good thing about fighting, there is no ceiling. 

That's the same reason I like him too, because he brings the fight every time, his last fight versus Julian Marquez was amazing!

Yep that fight was awesome. I don’t think he’s had a single ufc fight that hasn’t been a brawl too. His fight vs petrosyan was insane
