Josh Gross talks Brett Rogers on Sherdog.com Radio (audio) [At the 80:15 min mark]

Josh Gross - "I'm hearing that it may not be cut and dry in terms of Rogers fighting and not fighting. I know Mike Afromowitz was out there yesterday saying that there's no way that Rogers or Werdum fights but I don't think the door to Rogers is completely closed yet."

What would we have done?

Jordan Breen - "I think Jeff Monson would have been my first choice…"

Josh Gross - "I would have moved Paul Buentello (selling the fact he beat Baby Fedor) into that spot and bring in Bobby Lashley against Gilbert Yvel. But I’m just throwing it out there."

Help me out – what’s the UG?

perhaps the best photoshops or as the UG calls them romoshops

I dont think I’ve earned a match with Fedor but who has? Of course I would step up if the show needed me too. As far as not being relavent who has a better UFC/Strikeforce/Affliction record than I do that isn’t under contract with another company? If you can find someone have them contact Tom and let him know they want to fight Fedor on a little more than a weeks notice. I don’t mind the guys who don’t care for me but at least get a clue.

and

I think Vitor would be the right move as far as mainstream but it doesn’t change the fact that I would take the fight if offered.

It ends in an armbar or a strangle regardless.

LOL, Buentello just wants a paycheck. Forget it, I want someone with some confidence who thinks they can beat Fedor.

Screw it. I’m not talking about this until the Fedor fight is confirmed on way or another.

I am tempted to write an article about the situation in a similar vein as my previous work…

That is what happens when I’m pushed to the edge.

Josh Gross is not exactly a business genius when it comes to MMA. Heart is in the right place though.

by Michael Rome on Jul 24, 2009 12:06 AM EDT reply actions   0 recs

His heart might be in the right place, but his head is in his ass.

i like the beuntello fight. he would have just as much a punchers chance as vitor imo, and he’s a natural hw. it’s all a little carazy about now. :)

by bdw on Jul 24, 2009 3:37 AM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Jordan Breen is right...

Monson was my first choice as well. Guy is sitting around, WANTS to fight Fedor, fights regularly on short notice, and it maintains Santiago vs. Belfort. What’s the problem?
