I've been following Eryk since his MMA debut. And he certainly has what it takes. He is great all around and can stand up or use his jujitsu skills as well. Of course, as a (former) linebacker he loves to shoot in, take is opponent down and then do some ground-n-pound work. While he likes to go for the quick KO ( sevral fights ending in less than a minute of the first round) his last fight proves he has the stamina go all 5 rounds of a belt fight. Him being able to take this fight on such short notice proves that he stays in shape  24/7/365, as so many other fighters have a "fight weight" and a "walking around weight". I've known welterweight fighters who walked around weighing over 200 lbs, but would cut 178 lb for a weigh in. (As awesome as Matt Hughes was, he was one of them) .
