From what I've seen of Sylvia's grappling Monson would get him to the ground and crush him. I know he's a Militech fighter, but that submission that Arlovski got was way to easy.doublelegtakedown said:Yeah i saw him once and he has good subs. BUt is he good enough to hang with AA or tim?
Yes, Jeff Monson is getting a title shot. After the main event at UFC 61 Tim Sylvia said "Jeff, you made a bad mistake by winning. Now you have to face me". I wonder when they are having their match though. But I think Jeff Monson is going to own Tim Sylvia. He's just unstoppable and unbeatable. And his strength is better than anyone, atleast in the UFC. He'll tool Tim.thebroken said:is he getting a title shot? i think he should.. getting a 15 win streak should land him a title shot
i dont know if he could cut 35 pounds!!! hes got a pretty solid bulid. he would be super lean is he could do it though!IronMan said:From what I've seen of Sylvia's grappling Monson would get him to the ground and crush him.

As for Arlovski, I don't really know.
I guess Monson's big disadvantage would be getting around jabs of much taller fighters. He loses 7 inches to Arlovski and 11 inches to Sylvia (but that's just height, I don't know about the actual reach).
I was thinking that he might drop down to Lightheavyweight, even though he'd be cutting 35 pounds. I think that if anyone can takedown Chuck, it's probably the snowman.
Hell, Monson would be the best competition that Chuck could have at this point. It's not like there are any great fighters at 205 other than him.
Hell yeah, Monson is one of the best grapplers in the UFC not to mention ridiculously strong, if he can get past his reach, monson will own him on the ground.Confrontation said:Yes, Jeff Monson is getting a title shot.

yes.IronMan said:Now that this is for sure, I think that Monson will smash Sylvia. The one true grappler left in the UFC Heavyweight Division.
I made a decision to stop calling Jeff "the Snowman" after realizing that it's just a mistranslation of the Brazillian word for Snowball (long story)
Now I'm going to call him, Jeff "The Anarchist" Monson. (better than "Naked Monson")
