NEWSCMLL Heavyweight Champion Ultimo Guerrero said that he is getting tired of defending his title against guys who have to gain weight to face him so he wants to make his next defense against a real big man such as “Strongman” Jon Anderson. UG said that it would be a great risk to defend his title against him because he could lose but a win over the big Strongman is worth the risk. UG said that he would use his cunning ability and quickness to take down the big man then put him away with his technique.
