Anyone actually excited for Rogers tonight?
Im surprised he got to this point so quick. I remember watching him for the first time on the EliteXC Primetime with Kimbo on it, and was like "wow this guy might be pretty good one day".
Next thing I know he's knocked out AA and is about to take on Fedor. Damn must feel good man. Im rooting for Rogers tonight..yeaaaaaa

Not really. He has impressive power, but his technique is horrible...

He actually doesn't have impressive power.
And he is going to be destroyed tonight.

Most legitimate MMA fans look at skills of all fights and who he fights. I have yet to see him do anything impressive on the ground, and only rely on his hands.
I do think that it is a weird match up against Fedor. It maybe all that strikeforce has to throw at him right now, since Alistair Overeem is kinda doing his own thing.

Wish him all the best, and I hope he has a good showing (unlike Fedors recent victims in Arlovski and Sylvia.)

I kinda hope Antonio Silva upsets Werdum, assuming Overeem continues to stay AWOL, because Werdum-Fedor is about as one sided on paper as it can get for Fedor vs. a top 15 HW.

Excited FOR him? No, I feel bad for him.
He's being fed to too high of a caliber fighter, far too soon.
