    What will future mma hweight superstar look like?

    In 10+yrs from now..What do you think the future heavyweight mma champ will look like in terms of height and weight,as i am so confused in my thoughts..The lightheavies at the moment seem to be around 6'2'' yet the heavyweight division has such a large variety of heights and weights,leaving me to not understand how big the next mma hweight superstar will be!
    Where will this guy come from also?
    I believe a russian kid in his early 20's been training mma since bout 8yrs old will be the next big thing 'only when fedor is finished.' Give me your honest opinions!??

    He will look like tim sylvia but handsome, actually have skill, and will not look like cookie dough. So actually nothing like tim sylvia accept he might have side burns.

    In all honesty, i am sure they will be close to what they are now. Most the really large heavys never fare that well in the first place. Guys like nog, randy, and fedor are relatively small to be fighting at heavy where as guys like brock and bob sapp are exceptions to the rule. Just for the record i was not comparing sapp to the previously mentioned fighters skill wise. Look at carwin and vasquez, guys in the high 220's low 230's and they are future in a lot of peoples minds.

    Dude Carwin weighed in at 265 the other night...


    Hell, i heard Joe Rogan say something about how the UFC had to make 4X gloves for Lesnar, and when Carwin tried them on, they didnt fit. They had to make him 5X gloves...


    The guy is huge. Vasquez is pretty big too i believe...

    Not Lesnar big, but still huge guys...

    Really? 265? I had no idea that he was that big. When is he going to get a little more exposure? Rumor has it that he is the next big thing but no one has really seen him work. Cain is listed at 245.

    I dont think hes gonna be that great...

    Hes a decent wrestler with EXTREMELY heavy hands...

    I havent heard anything about his submission game, or endurance factor considering hes never been out of the first round.

    There are lots of questions.

    Personally, id like to see him fight Cain.

    That would settle all this who is next in line talk.

    265 pounds is a lot of weight depending on fat % and height.

    I really enjoy seeing HW at 220-240, 265 might be to heavy.

    After all what is interesting seeing someone like butterbean doing MMA?

    well, butterbean actually wins mma fights. I believe his record is something like 11-7. Actually, pretty impressive overall fight record http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eric_Esch

    Butterbean has won more than he has lost but in all honesty he is terrible. He hits hard no doubt but his overall skills are lacking to say the least. He lost to a 155lb Genki Sudo! As far as Cain fighting Carwin, I would be very suprised that they would risk losing one of their up and comers. But then again Brocks first three fight in the UFC will be Mir, Herring, and Coture.

    Butterbean is a freak show... I will never take him seriously...

    Like ninja just said, he lost to Genki Sudo in the most ridiculous fashion...

    11-7 shouldn't be taken as winning.. more like 11 fights in a basement and 7 against real people (ie kimbo slice???)

    good luck getting his fat ass to cut to 285 for the ufc or any other semi respectable org
