I don't think he can be champion with A. Sylva in the middleweight picture, but his chances would definetly be higher if Sylva wasn't in the middleweight picture. unless he goes to LHW
Id go with Top Contender, hes got the skills and the heart to do exacly that....
I believe he will be top ten minimum. The MW division is the weakest division depth wise. By the time he is ready for a title shot maybe anderson won't be king anymore. So he could very well be a future champ, but def he will be top 10.
I believe he will eventually be top 10.... Its to early to say whether he could be champ, but it is possible. He has great talent, mixes up his wrestling and striking.... Strong takedowns and has some punching power. He has room to grow with continued training and I believe he will definitely do so..... I think he will be one of those guys to actually find success after TUF, something we havent seen in quite a while.
I agree with you, it's still too early but he shows a lot of promise and hunger. He's a guy who came from nothing and he won't forget that which will keep him humble and respectful and not to mention he's tough as nails and won't quit or give up. He grinds from bell to bell and doesn't stop and looks for the finish and finds ways to win...I think as he gets more experience and maybe travels to a few camps he'll hone is skill set and become something we'll remember and it couldn't happen to a better guy
I think hes a good fighter but he wont be no world beater - I think he'll be one of those fighters thats on the maincard who will fight anybody and he might have a good run and become a contender then someone higher up the ladder will send him crashing back down - I hope he proves me wrong because I like him hes come a long way.
He is always improving but at MW I don't really think he has much a chance with A.Silva as Champion. Sense he is such a good wrestler and always improving this guy could be a prospect in the UFC. In won't be easy but if he really works on his game this kid could very well be a Top Contender.
I'd say he can be top 10 especially if he goes down to 170, I do think this is someone that will be in the UFC for years to come. But like many people that do TUF they go down 1 or even 2 weight classes later as they have to be able to maintain around 185 pounds for 6 weeks straight to be in the house.
The guy already beat being a Drug addict...And now he has a contract with the ufc..Court himself priolly alread sees himself being a champ...he is one in my mind...Beatin the drug addiction was enough for me...but i will say top ten contender for a couple of months and then he will get a shot at bein a champ...hope he does well!!!
COurt is good dont get me wrong, hes very solid in all the areas of his game...but he has a while till he can be a top 10 or a main card fighter, theres guys who have been doin it longer than him and will get there due before him im sure. But all power to u court good luck

Maybe im getting ahead of myself here
I think if anything hed go down before he went up. He reminds me of Jon Fitch as far as size and body type go.

I think its too soon to say, but the way he trains n how dedicated he is to MMA i'm guessing he will be a contender in the future

Hes the new beard guy since Jardine is on his way out.
Hype, I envy ur natural wit....
Dude, I don't like you at all
Lol, do I know you?
Hey UrHype, I guess they do not appreciate my admiration haha
I think he will continue to improve for sure
I think he has the potential to be top ten but maybe lacks the natural athleticism of a GSP, Shogun, and Silva to ever take a belt.
definitely a top 10 contender and a main card fighter !

I think he could become the middleweight Chuck if he keeps going like he is.
And does anyone else think the photo looks like his head on someone elses body, proportion wise?
he us really well rounded and if he can improve his stand up a lil h can probably take out some top guys
after watching em last night i would have to say he will be a top 10 contender for sure, i was very impressed with his skills
