Beware Counterfeit Roy Nelson Topps Certified Auto
Apparently someone is counterfeiting Roy Nelson's signature on real TOPPS CERTIFIED AUTOGRAPH holo-stickers
From <a href="https://twitter.com/roynelsonmma/status/250697611210797056">Roy's Twitter</a>:

Apparently, Roy ALWAYS hand numbers the stickers he does.
Both of these are fake because they only read 'Big Country' and aren't hand-numbered on the sticker...

Also, according to Nelson in the twitter conversation above, his contract only gave permission to Topps to use in its 2009 products...
Keep your eyes peeled, either Topps is pulling an Upper Deck by counterfeiting its own products or someone stole blank Topps Certified Auto holo-stickers and they may pop up elsewhere.
Spread the word...
