Roy Nelson doesn't have to shave beard

The verdict is in: The beard stays.

Daniel Cormier had made much ado about wanting his opponent at UFC 166 on Saturday night, Roy Nelson, to shave his beard before their heavyweight fight.

But according to the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation, Cormier has no recourse to make such a request. So Cormier will fight "Big Country" in Houston with the latter's unruly whiskers intact.

But after Cormier filed a complaint with the commission, the commission informed him that it doesn't regulate such matters as facial hygiene. Ariel Helwani reported the news on Wednesday's edition of UFC Tonight.

As recently as Monday, Cormier, who is at 225 pounds as of midweek for his last before a planned drop to light heavyweight, told MMAFighting.com his reasoning on why he made such a request.

"(He's been) kinda messing with me up top and in my head and everything, so there's something there with that beard. He only had it for a reason. He likes having it, so why not make him shave it, and take that comfort zone away from him?"

Yus!

Roy nelson bad camp for UFC 166

http://www.mmafighting.com/2013/10/1...p-ive-ever-had

"This has actually probably been the crappiest camp that I've ever had," Nelson admitted on Wednesday. "It is what it is."

The root of Nelson's problems began in mid-September, when his head boxing coach, Jeff Mayweather, suffered a mild heart attack after drinking an energy drink. The 49-year-old wound up hospitalized for weeks.

Doctors subsequently diagnosed Mayweather with "full-blown diabetes," and from there things only got worse.

"I lost Jeff probably about two weeks into camp," Nelson explained.

"I lost (training partner Muhammed ‘King) Mo' Lawal. I lost Ryan Martinez, because in Bellator he broke his hand. It was just one of those camps where anything possibly that could've happened, happened. So you just kind of deal with (it). I mean, I've been in the game long enough to know what I'm supposed to do and put the work in. And at the end of the day, that's what it is."

Despite his mounting myriad of setbacks, Nelson says he never considered pulling out of his showdown with Daniel Cormier, or even asking the UFC to delay the bout.

"That's how other fighters work," Nelson said. "All the other fighters are like, ‘Ah, my big toe hurts,' worrying about all that other stuff. People are paying to see me fight. I'm going to put on a show, and the UFC, that's what they expect out of me, is to put on a show and go out there and fight.

"At the end of the day, if everybody knew half the crap that everybody has gone through, what pains and aches, they'd be like, ‘Dude, why are you fighting?'"

True to form, Nelson remains dead-set on giving fans their money's worth on October 19. Though the past few months certainly haven't provided the ideal preparation he'd hoped for, particularly as he looks to rebound from what he calls "the crappiest performance" of his life.

Last June, Nelson accepted a short notice fight against lightly regarded Stipe Miocic. Nelson entered the bout riding the most impressive wave of momentum of his career, yet lost in resounding fashion, all but ruining the swell of negotiating leverage he'd amassed to ink a lucrative new contract with the UFC.

Nelson now admits that all the contract talk became a "little distraction." Though it's true his upcoming opponent, Cormier, is facing a distraction of his own, having vowed to drop down to light heavyweight after UFC 166, win or lose.

Yet Nelson is sporting a noticeably slimmer frame as well, and he doesn't believe Cormier's impending division change will have any negative bearing on their co-main event clash.

"If he can wrestle at more of his natural weight, I think it'll probably be better," Nelson said.

"He's not a guy who used his weight to take you down and lay on you, try to stall you out. He's more of the guy who pushes you against the cage and stalls you out. That's not a weight thing. That's more leverage and technique."

Alistair Overeem vs. Frank Mir Added to Stacked UFC 167 Card in Las Vegas

Two former champions will try to put an end to recent skids when Frank Mir meets Alistair Overeem at UFC 167 in November as part of the promotion's 20th anniversary show in Las Vegas.

The promotion announced the fight via The Las Vegas Review-Journal on Thursday.

Both Overeem and Mir will enter the fight in November behind the eight ball after recent setbacks in their respective careers.

Following a run in Strikeforce where he won the heavyweight title while also taking on the K-1 Grand Prix championship in kickboxing, Overeem joined the UFC with hopes of battling for the title on day one in the promotion.

He got off to a quick start by battering former heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar and dispatching of him via first-round TKO, but just about everything since that moment has been downhill for the giant Dutchman.

Overeem was scheduled to fight for the UFC heavyweight title a few months after the Lesnar fight, but a pre-fight drug screening done by the Nevada State Athletic Commission revealed he had elevated levels of testosterone in his system. The UFC promptly removed him from the bout and he was denied a fight license and effectively suspended by the commission for nine months.

Upon his return to action, Overeem was then knocked out by fellow former Strikeforce fighter Antonio "Bigfoot" Silva, before facing Travis Browne at UFC Fight Night 26 just a few weeks ago. Overeem came out strong, blasting Browne with heavy punches and knees, but he was unable to finish the fight and it came back to haunt him in a big way.

Browne launched a front kick straight into Overeem's chin that knocked him to the ground, and a few punches later the fight was over.

Meanwhile, Mir comes into the fight at UFC 167 on a three-fight losing streak of his own. The first of those losses came to former UFC heavyweight champion Junior Dos Santos when it was Mir who replaced Overeem after the positive drug test. Mir then dropped a lackluster decision to Daniel Cormier before being flattened by former heavyweight champion Josh Barnett last weekend at UFC 164 in Milwaukee.

It may be do-or-die time for both fighters as another loss would not only send them spiraling further out of the top 10 in the division, but could also put either man dangerously close to the cut line as they approach multiple defeats in a row.

UFC 167 will be headlined by welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre against Johny Hendricks, while Chael Sonnen faces Rashad Evans in the co-main event on the card.

The Ultimate Fighter : Velasquez vs Werdum.

The UFC Heavy Weight contender Fabricio Werdum, has recently finished his work as a trainer in the second season of the ultimate fighter Brazil against Antonio Rodrigo “Minotauro” Nogueira; And he is already offering to do it again in Mexico against the UFC HW champion Cain Velasquez.

The brazilian would be perfect for the job.

“I’m talking about making an ultimate fighter in Mexico, for those who don’t know I’m a “UFC en Español” commentator, I can speak Spanish because I lived for many years in Spain”, Werdum said. So I give the idea to the UFC of making TUF against Velasquez in Mexico.
But there is an important setback in my fighting with Velasquez, I don’t know if he will beat Junior. It’s going to be a great fight, said.

Velasquez and Dos Santos will fight for the third time at the end of this year.

They fought in November 12 of 2011 on the UFC debut on Fox, when Junior Dos Santos knocked Cain Velasquez out, in a little more than a minute of the first round.

Later at UFC 155, in a rematch, Velasquez took his revenge by dominating Dos Santos for five rounds.

The next step in Werdum’s professional career depends in the result of the trilogy.

I’ll be there watching the fight. I have to wait for both to fight, said the 35 year old fighter.

Werdum haven’t fought in almost a year, before his fight against Nogueira on UFC on Fuel TV 10 the past June 8. He doesn’t want to stay inactive again for a long period of time, but he will, if he fights for the belt at the end.

I have been away for a year making the ultimate fighter in Brazil and that is the reason I don’t want that to happen again, but if the UFC tells me to hold on to make the ultimate fighter and then fight for the title, I would definitely wait. And I will be working hard for it, he said.

Werdum’s reasons are not just entirely about fighting for the title, he also thinks there are not enough MMA in Latin America.

“I think it’s a great idea to be capable of showing a little bit of our sport in Latin America because of the lack of this sport”, the HW contender told us.
“And it’ll be something good to have the audience, because it’s easy if they like it. We need to go after the people who don’t know our sport”.
