Could it be?
Is it the fantastic work of technology once again with a Photoshop touch up.
Is the cameraman an experienced veteran finding the right angle to 'Vanish' the elephant in the room.
Or has UFC Heavyweight Roy Nelson gutted down, literally! and the iconic 'Big Country' is now just a little state.
Whatever it may be a picture paints 1000 words.
Nelson who is weeks away from his UFC 166 bout with Daniel Cormier has showed the beard remains but the cargo has departed.
'Big Country's' previous slim down a couple of years ago came after criticism from Dana White, this time it looks to be his own accord.
After hitting 3 home runs in less than a year, finishing Dave Herman, Matt Mitrione & Cheick Kongo, a push for a title shot was on the agenda "im just learning this combo game with my strikes so look out" (Nelson after his finish of Cheick Kongo).
Strikeout! Stipe Miocic halted Roy's rise at UFC 161 with the home run hitter unable to put bat to ball.
Is the loss so commonly for many fighters a blessing in disguise, which has driven him to slim down and refresh his origins on the ground, an incredible black belt Jui Jitsu game to go hand in hand with his new found talent of Combinations!
Has the unexplainable hype train of Daniel 'Bear hugging" Cormier put a little fire into Nelson to burn down the weight, with DC carrying a little of his own but showing a high level of aerobic capacity, the bragging rights of the 6 pack underneath fighters is up for grabs.
Nelson states his weight has never been an issue but is the Cormier fight on a new plan?
Is it doubt in Nelson's head or is it a focus on a new level? the trunk has been chopped, so will the home run swing only hit 1st base?
Or is it just a case of, Don't judge a book by it's cover!
