StillUnknown Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 that might have been the dumbest strategy i've seen from a fighter. Brock attempted a grand total of 1 takedown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chachie Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Brock retires. BTW, all 3 of my fight predictions were miserably wrong tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chachie Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Brock's lack of coordination and reflex were exposed tonight. Big time. It was harder to see before because he mauled guys but tonight he froze up and got picked apart. He was a deer in the headlights. The time off between fights is killing him.

Unforgiven Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Overeem will be champion very quickly. I wouldn't be so quick on that....JDS is a far far bigger challenge than Lesnar, who can't handle any kind of standup. JDS thrives on that type of fight.

JWB Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Yeah, I guess comparing Overeem's performance vs. Brock is like judging RG3 vs. Washington.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsoe Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 If Overeem gets into a striking battle with JDS he's going to sleep. Dirty boxing and using his size is his only chance Are you for real? If the K1 grand prix heavyweight champ gets in a striking match he is going to sleep? Shows how little you know about striking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsoe Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 I wouldn't go that far. I could see Overeem hurting JDS from range just as easily. JDS' standup is good, but it has holes, he just has the speed to hide them against people who may not be that schooled in striking. I don't think his speed will be enough for him to get away with it against the Reem. Ubereem is faster than JDS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDS thrives on that type of fight. JDS is a bigger mismatch than Brock was. At least Brock had some sort of ground game. For those who don't know the difference between real striking and what MMA striking is, get ready for a trainwreck. Expect Overeem to have JDS in the Thai plum pretty easily and watch the knees fly.

Dr. Do Itch Big Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Ubereem is faster than JDS. I disagree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patrick86L Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 (edited) JDS has more speed than Overeem but if Alistair keeps it at range like SU said and lands leg kicks to the lead leg of JDS he won't be able to step into his overhand rights and could have a chance to slow him down.

StillUnknown Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 (edited) Ubereem is faster than JDS. I think JDS' sole reliance on his hands will be his downfall in that fight. You can't come at this version of Overeem with one weapon and win. I'll be rooting for JDS, but the analyst in me says its a rough night for him (although my predictions have been **** lately, so take with a grain of salt ) Edited December 31, 2011 by StillUnknown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RG3 didn't really dominate washington, I think Overeem dominated Brock. ---------- Post added December-31st-2011 at 12:36 AM ---------- I disagree.

Tsoe Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Do you understand that the fact that he beat Hari once and fought him close the second times puts him leaps and bounds over anyone MMA has to offer? He was just as fast as Hari in both fights. This time he doesn't have to carry as much weight since he isn't going against a world class wrestler. Please this isn't even a debate.

Dr. Do Itch Big Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Not saying its not possible I just personally don't think it's true. I am no mma expert just going off by seeing them fight and JDS seems faster to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
