Hindsight is 20/20. I remember people were saying how he's making a smart career move when he chose to do that, guess he wasn't charismatic or whatever wrestling fans like. I think his best option is UFC now.
Would be crazy if Conor some how returned to how he was. I wouldn't put it past the UFC/Conor, maybe he gets special treatment or rules. Chandler is almost 40. He's definitely not returning the same level of skill though.
Brock took those knees to where he had surgery. It's a fair strike, but this isn't a good fight to show a 100% Brock. He was different after his diverticulitis. Look how hesitant he was to shoot in compared to earlier fights. Brock at UFC 100 could take anyone down and hang on the ground with...
No offense to Barboza but I don't think it would be their first option. I would say Emmett at 145 against Max would happen before that.
Masvidal was freshly coming off a viral knockout, probably the most viral knockout of the UFC of all time when they put him in there. Also Masvidal came from...
I agree it's mostly strikers and Barboza fits that bill with his highlight reel, but that's just to us mma nerds here. I think BMF has alot to do with marketability. All the guys who have challenged for it were high profile. Barboza has been pretty chinny though you have to admit compared to...
Green keeps his hands low and can get caught, Jim Miller cracked him pretty good and I'd imagine Paddy would do him one better. Green sometimes forgets about grappling, but to be honest has more skills than Paddy if he keeps his head on straight and remembers everything. Age difference is a huge...
Stipe vs Blaydes seems like a decent matchup if it happens. Also assuming Stipe isn't a glass chin with his age. Wrestling would cancel out, Stipe has better striking, but Blaydes has more power. IDK it would work sort of.
Funny how when a public figure denies clear science everyone gets so butthurt about it. I never cared there were idiots in high school who didn't know shit. Let them live in their fantasy world, I feel like it's for attention anyways, don't be the one to give it to them. Laugh and walk away...
It ruined the WW division for awhile too. Won't disagree. You have to admit the iron was hot when they put Masvidal in the BMF fight, something I don't see in Barboza right now even though he's on a decent streak.
Izzy didn't take Strickland serious, let's be honest none of us here were either. Then Izzy was rocked bad in round 1 and Sean never let up. It was good on Strickland. I still would be shocked if it played out the same in a rematch.
