Jake Rosholt

Jake Rosholt Interview

 

Hi Jake,

Thank you for taking the time to sit down with MMABay and answer a few of our questions:

MMABay - Your facing without a doubt the biggest test of your career in Chris Leben, how do you plan on avoiding his big left hand?

Rosholt - This is the biggest test of my career.  But I am confident going into the fight.  I am will be using a lot of movement with my feet to avoid the big left hands as well as staying focused throughout the whole fight.  Leben is always dangerous no matter what round it is. 

MMABay - Your fight with fellow wrestler Dan Miller didn’t go your way, do you think you will do better against a predominantly stand up fighter?

Rosholt - I could do much better in that fight if I got the chance to fight Dan Miller again.  I don't really care if I am fighting a striker or a wrestler/jui jitsu fighter.  I feel I have the skills to beat any type of fighter.

MMABay - Prior to your loss, you won four straight by TKO, do you see a similar result at UFC 102?

Rosholt - I definitely see the fight ending with a TKO.  I would be very surprised if the fight goes all 3.

MMABay - Do you have anyone in mind to fight next should you get past Leben?

Rosholt - I don't care who they give me.  I have a couple people in mind that I would like to fight but I will leave those names in the bag until after the fight.

MMABay - What’s your take on the main event between Couture and Nogueira?

Rosholt - You know I really haven't even thought about the other fights on my fight card much.  But after the way Frank Mir picked Nogueira apart on there feet and controlled him on the ground.  I see Randy dominating the fight with his striking and clinch.  If it does go to the ground, Randy will be on top and controlling Nogueira.

MMABay - How about Nate Marquardt and Demian Maia?

Rosholt - I am curious to watch this fight.  Both possible opponents for me down the road. 

MMABay - Would you like to thank any sponsors?

Rosholt - I would like to thank Cobra kai Jui Jitsu, Ecko, and everyone who has helped get me ready for this fight. 

MMABay - Thanks for your time Jake, and good luck.
