He fell off the radar for a sec, where's he at/what's he doing/who should he fight?
Kongo & Mitrione both sound like interesting match-ups. I'll go with Mitrione.

i think Roy Nelson, Big Nog or Stefan Struve make more sense...Mitrione, Kongo, and Rothwell are too far down the rankings for a guy whos last fight was a title shot.

I would have said Big Ben as well, but he may be too far down in the rankings for this to happen. I honestly think that they should matchup Nog and Carwin in Brazil.

isn't Kongo scheduled to fight someone else?? Carwin vs anyone will be fine with me and probably most everyone.

it'd be his best shot at a win. At least he would have better cardio than his opponent

Truth is none of those fights interest me. Carwin is a top 5 HW. Putting him up against Kongo or Rothwell would be a joke.
But if I had to chose, I'd go Big Country (the best of the bunch with a great chin).

this is definately more interesting than Kongo or Rothwell. although if Kongo gets a few of his usual nut shots in, Carwin could very easily permanantly retire the cheap shot king!!

Nog would be interesting. Didn't think of that one. If Nog isn't actually "Zombie Nog" (which, as a huge Nog fan, I refuse to believe), he could withstand Carwin's initial blast and get a sub. But with Carwin's size and Nog's "age" (fighting age he's ancient, actual age he's 34), I don't think he could get the big man to the ground. Bad style match-up for Nog. And then again, you can never count out Nog because he can pull a sub from who knows where. He'll turn a punch into a flying armbar.
