2012 Forecast:
Jeff Monson’s nomadic career has continued to span across promotions and continents. Monson’s top-level grappling skills have always equipped with the means necessary to defeat 48 opponents that once propelled him towards a UFC title shot in 2006. Monson’s limitations are his striking and lack of size. He has hinted multiple times at possibly dropping down to light heavyweight, but the thickly-muscled Monson is unlikely to do so at this stage in his career. Monson could still serve as a solid gatekeeper in the UFC, but he is unlikely to earn another shot in the octagon at his age.
