UFC 110: Nogueira vs. Velasquez Main Card Preview
by Mike Williams on February 19, 2010
but in his last fight he put his striking on display with a 2nd round TKO over Ben Rothwell. He'll be entering this fight as the younger and more athletic competitor, but it might be his game plan that decides this fight for him. He trains with a very solid team in American Kickboxing Academy, but exploiting weaknesses in an opponent who's so void of them makes for quite a task. Wrestling is obviously his bread and butter, but does he really want to go to the mat with a guy who has 20 submission wins? His standup is probably the area where he needs the most improvement so it might not be wise to try to box Nogueira either. Whatever the game plan is, he'll rely on his youth and athleticism to try to wear out his more weathered counterpart and possibly look for a late finish.

Bader has the potential to be a future champion if he applies what he learns in each fight. Time will tell. If Bader brings is A-game, I don't see Jardine beating him.
