I really don't know enough about Villefort as I should (other than the fact that I dislike his nickname. Seriously, Indio?). Still, I feel pretty confident that Jake the Snake will take this, probably via GnP, since Villefort seems to have decent BJJ and probably won't get subbed.

I am hoping Rosholt makes some waves with an early TKO in this one.

Rosholt's going to be a monster. He's a legit athlete with a fantastic wrestling background.
While I'm still skeptical of Team Takedown and how smart they are going to be at adapting their fighters for MMA, I do think that Rosholt's going to be the big winner in this fight.
The real issue is whether he'll be explosive and well rounded or not.
He could easily win this fight with layngay, or he could win with some explosive, athletic power and do some serious damage to finish the fight.
Obviously, I'd like to see that second one.

I think Rosholt will be one of the best MW's in MMA soon. The guy has the best wrestling pedigree in MMA history.
He's a good grappler he has been doing well in a lot of grappling tournaments and is in the top 10 of USA grappling's rankings at his weight.
I'm sure his striking is improving a lot at Xtreme Couture.
Man I'm pumped to se Rosholt fight on TV. Jake by 1st round TKO.

Can the thread title get fixed since he isn't fighting Villefort anymore?
Anyway can't wait to see Rosholt fight I'm a huge fan of the guy.
