UFC 199 - Los Angeles - Rockhold vs Bisping - 6/4/16

[Agent Mulder]

I've been hopng people would bet green, but maybe this -195 Poirier is the best we'll get?

Greens had so many issues since his last fight in 2014.. can't imagine him being on top of his game here. And frankly the Poirier we've seen at 155 beats any green, anyway, i think. He can hang with him anywhere and has a ground edge if it goes there. Hes more aggressive, too.

I've been waiting too... Really thought we would get a better price, still have some hope.

You're a pair of white jeans and good shades away from having that El Chapo McGregor swag

I think living in California, crazy is the norm lol. But I'm usually pretty basic lol. Yeah I'm sitting here right next to Ariel !

lol, that Sherdog investigative work. Turns out Luke has been healed for 2 months, and there are clips of him throwing kicks the past few weeks in that thread. Hit those Luke lines if you want em before they go up again

Wouldn't surprise me if Bisping was bullshitting about not being in shape and his strategy to come out all guns blazing because he doesn't have the conditioning to go 5 rounds. Weidman pulling out was always a high possibility so makes sense to be ready to step in on a short notice. Not that it's likely to make much of a difference in Mikey's favour tbh.

Who was the coolest out of everyone you met? Always like hearing about who's cool and who's a dick in person.

 

[efalk1322]

hendo looks old and like shit...not that he ever looked spectacular

Bisping seems to be the type to always be in shape too, even when he's not in camp. heard a story on a broadcast awhile back about how his resting heartrate is extremely low. Guy has made his great cardio a big part of why he's been so successful.

 

[AgentSmecker]

Cruz looking in much better shape for this one.

Yup his gas tank has always been one of his primary weapons. Always outworking his opponents and never ever seen him tire in a fight even in his previous 5 rounders.

wonder how much of the fighters looking good/stronger will be due to rehydration?

fight pass:

DHK-polo
DHK looks pretty darn good. way better than debut, way better at 155
polo looks strong, too, bulky 155'er.
think DHK might be an inch taller, both look good.

mutapcic-casey
mutapcic looks waaaay better back down to 185.
casey looks good, too. strong. better than some of his recent fights.
mutapcic is 2" taller

wilson-da silva
da silva looks pretty soft. looks like he could be 185.
wilson looks alright.
da silva maybe 1" taller

breese-strickland
breese absolutely gigantic 170, looks huge..
strickland shredded to the gills... same as usual at 170, looks awesome.
breese definitely 2+" taller

fs1:

caceres-miller
caceres a lil thicker up at 145. looks alright.
miller looks decent. he's looked a bit more toned before, but looks fine
miller 2-3" taller at least, hard to tell exactly w/that hair

penne-andrade
andrade down to 115.. and wow, honestly, she doesn't look THAT much different than she did at 135!? maybe rehydrated already? looks good...
penne looks decent enough.. tho maybe a little softer than her titlefight?
penne maybe 2+" taller

dariush-vick
vick looks decent, long and lean. same as usual
dariush a bit awkward as always, maybe a little softer than some fights? but doesn't look bad
vick 4" taller

ortega-guida
guida annoying as always. looks strong, tho. thicker than he used to but not soft.
ortega looks alright. never looks great
ortega 1-2" taller

ppv:

green-poirier
green looks outstanding despite the layoff (head tattoo not withstanding)
poirier looks great. same as usual at 155. both guys in great shape apparently
they're the same size

hendo-lombard
lombard swollen as fuuuuck. jesus christ. i swear that's the thickest he's ever looked at a weighin
hendo looks fine for a 45 year old. strong but meh.
hendo couple inches taller

holloway-lamas
lamas looks awesome, as always at 145.
holloway lean but looks as good as ever, too.
holloway 3" taller

faber-cruz
faber looks fantastic. think that's the best he's looked in the ufc?
cruz looks decent.. better than his return fight, maybe?
cruz is like 4" taller, but no surprise here, we know this.

bisping-rockhold
bisping looks decent. not as good as the anderson fight, but not terrible.
rockhold absolutely ludicrous 185. looks bigger than some hw's.
rockhold 2" taller i guess. (knew this)

 

[EzFlyer]

got scared off of penne at weighins. she looked kinda soft.

 

[efalk1322]

rockholds such a dick he gets boo'd in cali while bisping gets cheered

 

[EzFlyer]

breese much bigger than strickland

he's a hw who fights at 170, haha, i don't get it. strickland gigantic WW and still dwarfed

 

[EzFlyer]

Yeah missed them too. Assuming you will be on a couple of the over sub props?

yep, you turned out to be right

small plays on
O3.5, O4.5, O5.5 subs. (most on O3.5, but not a lot on any of them). O3.5 is +281.

could see sub out of:
rockhold
ortega
dariush
penne
miller

and maybe (less likely):
faber, lamas/holloway, poirier, andrade?, caceres?, breese, casey, dhk

 

[Jae Gibbz]

I know its big cage, but I'm playing u6.5 DEC and down

With you, agree on everyone you posted having very good shots at subs. Took ov3.5 as well.
