I guess according to Bloodyelbow it's Carwin vs Nelson possibly at 125..
"Sources close to the fight, have confirmed that the organization is looking to match up contenders Shane Carwin and Roy Nelson at UFC 125 on New Year's Day."

I think fighting JDS followed by Carwin is gonna end up being pretty detrimental to Roy's health in his old age. There's something to be said for a weak chin that gets you out of fights like this quickly so your head doesn't have time to get
too
f---ed.

Roy is only 34...Carwin is 35 or 36. I agree that Roy gets smashed though.....

Roy is in the UFC to fight the best, right?

Oh I didn't mean he's old now, I just meant that in the long run having a good chin and fighting guys like JDS and Carwin in a short space of time is a surefire way to do yourself some neural damage.

Tough comeback fight for both guys coming off losses. I will say Nelson is a tougher opponent for Carwin than Big Nog. I'll pick Carwin.
