Default "Hulk" Hollett hoping for UFC shot with win over Valamiki

Hollett is arguably the top MMA prospect in Nova Scotia (unless you're a big fan of The Athlete) and probably the top 205lb fighter in North America who has yet to appear in a "major" show. If he runs through Valamiki like he did his last three opponents, I'd expect that to change.

he has the same reputation as gsp did in canada so im eager to see what he can do in the big leagues. altho id rather see him drop to 185 becuase he would be a smaller guy at 205.
and if he is the real deal he should ko valamaki in round 1.

my thoughts exactly! he just looks too small to compete with the tops at 205. he'd be a beast at 185 for sure though.

id love to see him fight Bisping and/or Terry Martin.

he is 6-0 but his best win was against Ricardeau Francois who is 15-8 or something....the other fighters he went against were like 1-2 2-2 3-6...not very impressive....I hope he does well but, we will have to see

To be fair, nobody who is only 5 or 6 fights into their career has a great list of opponents.

This is his first big test, and if he wins it'll be huge for him. Hopefully he does and gets a shot in the big show.
