StillUnknown Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Just now, Destino said: Jose used to be so much faster than every one fought. That's clearly gone. Without the speed and without gas, he looks surprisingly average. Max didn't even respect his power tonight. He let Aldo hit him like it was never a concern. I think its more of a testament to the greatness of Holloway and to a lesser extent, McGregor. he looked plenty fast enough in his fight against Edgar. Holloway just forces him into a fight he can't sustain. These two fights with Holloway will speed up the end of his career Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Do Itch Big Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Agree. I thought Jose should of kickboxed more, the leg kick was there and Max wasn't threatening with any takedowns or anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking fast against an old fighter, isn't the same thing as looking fast against a young killer. Aldo isn't slow, but he's slower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Do Itch Big Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Edgar looks good in every fight except Aldo. He demolished Yair, Cub, Mendes, and Stephens. His wrestling and cardio makes the Max fight very interesting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoCalMike Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 The fact that Holloway is the interm champ, and McGregor is the official champ, yet McGregor's name wasn't brought up once post-fight, can't be a good sign for Conor's future in the UFC. The way UFC hypes things, you'd think they would have milked the potential rematch for everything they could the second Holloway beat Aldo. Overeem deserves a bonus just for being able to wake up. Stipe Miocic has his work cut out for him, but those saying he has no shot might be overplaying their cards. I think Stipe will really try to test Ngannou's cardio by getting on the bike and constantly moving away the way he has done against most opponents. He will try to play the long game, get him gassed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Do Itch Big Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 I wouldn’t either but I don’t see Conor cutting to 145 again. Holloway isn’t the interim champ. He is the undisputed Champ. Ferguson is the interim champ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PleaseBlitz Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 The 155 division is so interesting right now. Hopefully Khabib can make weight in a month, smashes Barboza and gets Ferguson or McGregor (finally) next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoCalMike Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Khabib is a savage. I've been saying for a couple years that he'd wreck Conor. Khabib has been under the radar until this fight due to his injury problems which led to weight cutting issues. He is such an elite grappler, but also mauls opponents with strikes once he has them down. He is relentless. I feel like Holm lacks a killer instinct in the Octagon. No one will ever forget her head kick heard round the world against Rousey, but otherwise, she always looks like she is in there to have tough sparring matches. She rocked Cyborg a couple times really well and didn't follow up. It's painful to watch someone with so much technical skill and great footwork never just bear down and go for it. And she says as much about her performances as well after every single fight, about letting opponents off the hook after connecting on very good strikes. Nunes vs. Cyborg would be fun. Nunes uses her length really well and has the one punch power to rock Cyborg, and if she does, I don't think she is sitting back and allowing her time to try and recover. I'd still put Cyborg as the favorite, but Nunes is another killer in there at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Do Itch Big Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 I didn't see what you saw at all, I saw Holm mostly hit air and at no point did I see cyborb in any trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lions get em down, Gazelle struggle for a bit but eventually give in to the inevitable. You literally see that transformation happen in the faces of Khabibs opponents.
