same. it should be a good fight.


also rooting for weidman to win. though belfort is a fucking animal. another good fight.

Cerrone should also win. though won't be shocked if he loses.


the rest i don't really care about.
 
This card is stacked.

I think Jon will handle him the same way he did Rampage. Many way for him to win, few for Rumble.

The Chris does well off of injuries, we will see if he keeps it up. I think he will man handle Vitor.

Eagle v. Cowboy will either be fireworks, or Khabib via boring grapplefvck.

I am hoping Pitbull gets the win over Brown. Love me a good career comeback story. And Brown is unlikeable.

Some fast paced lighter division match ups that should be fun for us fans.

and what does Rumble bring to the table that previous challengers didn't?

at least w/Gufferson, he out boxed Jones.
(unfortunately, didn't have an answer for Jones elbows or headkicks, except to try to block them.)

Pretty big strength advantage over other opponents. Whether that is enough, we shall see.

I don't know if it will be. Cromier had a big strength and wrestling advantage over most opponents and couldn't handle Jones. And, it seems like Jones is more serious about training and staying in shape out of cycle, so he should only get better.

I mean, I hope it is a good fight, but Rumble is going to have a lot of work to do to overtake Jones.

He may have meant strength in terms of KO power. Rumble can probably take anyone out with one shot. I'm interested to see if Jones tries to bang with him.

He knocked Bigfoot right the fucking fuck out.

Bigfoot hasn't been the same since that fight with Hunt. Part of it was probably getting popped for testosterone, but I think that fight permanently took away his chin.

Yep. And all too sad since he was one of my favorite fighters. He actually has not been able to realize his full potential since he has to keep his body like he lives in a fucking concentration camp. Actually I think he might actually be able to gain some speed if he could fight at around his natural weight of 300 to 315 lbs or so.
 
Cariaso got worked badly. That kid is pretty good.


Overeen needs to be knocked out again. His face is asking for it.

I hate those kicks.
 
ugly fight..

overeen is hitting just enough to get points then running away. sure he will win but when he faces someone with more then 1 shot i don't think he is going to win

thats why they need steel cups like the Mui thai guys.


Why did roy just let him off the hook again.


Roy needs to retire. few years ago he would have destroyed this palooka....


this fight is worse than a regional tough man
