New Questions From UFC Fight Night 19
Jake Rossen Sep 17, 2009
Is Melvin
Guillard about to get discouraged?
Guillard showed some punishing, powerful hands and credible takedown defense in the first five minutes against Nate Diaz. If he’s motivated and continues to improve, his ability to be a headache in the lightweight division grows.
Is Roger
Huerta making a mistake?
In spite of an extended layoff and a very tough opponent in Gray Maynard, Huerta looked like a handful. The UFC is still in dire need of a Spanish-language superstar to unlock that market. Should he relegate his acting aspirations to the margins until he exhausts his potential in MMA?
Should Kenny Florian avoid getting hit in the head?
Substituting for Joe Rogan on color commentary, Florian was articulate, easy to follow, and brought in a fighter’s perspective without the usual accompanying speech impediment. If he can avoid repeated concussions, he has a nice post-fight gig ahead of him.
