UFC Fight Night 82: Jared Rosholt calls Roy Nelson 'creature of habit,' says gameplan is 'very simple'

In a perfect world, No. 12-ranked UFC Heavyweight Jared Rosholt would've happily faced perennial contender Roy Nelson in late February, presumably on the UFC Fight Night 84 card, and everything would've been fine and dandy.

Except he's not. "Big Show" will collide with the power-punching juggernaut "Big Country" a few weeks earlier in the co-main event of UFC Fight Night 82, which takes place this Saturday night (Feb. 6, 2016) inside MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.

It was a minor inconvenience for the winner of three-straight Rosholt. However, the prolific wrestler from Oklahoma State University (OSU) is used to competing on the regular.
