With UFC 100 now behind us, let’s take a look at one of the matchups that is a bit intriguing for the next UFC outing on August 8. Everybody has been talking about the main event which is Penn vs. Florian. But let’s put that aside for a moment and talk about one of my favorite fighters. Kendall Grove, the winner of TUF season 3 is somewhat of an underachiever considering his well rounded fight game and ridiculous range for a middleweight (6’6 tall). Sporting a 10-5 win loss record, he will have another chance to be significant in the middleweight division at UFC 101 against Pancrase and Pride veteran Ricardo Almeida. Though no one will be clamoring for a Silva vs. Grove match up even if he wins in dominating fashion, a win will at least guarantee that he’ll fight in the UFC again.
