Wandy is a cool fighter but him beating Chael, or even fighting him at this point, would be a monumental surprise and is pretty much the kind of poo poo PSP lives for.

MycroftXXX posted:^Wanderlei doesn't submit people though except for almost Bisping that one time. Can someone post the .gif of the guillotine attempt where he's screaming and it looks like Wand's jaw is going to detach from his skull like some creature from the thing? Because it's probably the coolest thing he's done in the last 4 years along with breaking Cung Le's nose.

So was my favorite TUF guest coach. Wandy has entertaining fights, they're bad for him but they're fun to watch and I appreciate someone going out with the intention of putting on a show.

Wandy can knock Chael out? Quick name everyone who has knocked Chael out cold! I need a Chael Av. Preferable him during the confrontation with crossed arms saying, "This is actually helping." Or when he said in mid double leg, "fuckin' Wanderlei"

Senjuro posted:Can someone fill me in as to why everyone is convinced Wanderlei is no match for Chael? The only Wanderlei fight I've seen is against Brian Stann but if nothing else, he at least looked like he's quite capable of knocking Chael out. Meanwhile Sonnen can't use TRT anymore and his last and only win in a long time has been against a way past his prime Shogun. Wanderlei fights best when it's a brawl and Chael's spent his entire career learning how to avoid those.

I was going to mention that too (as well as Wand looking like he was close on the Bisping Guillotine), but I do wonder about the punishment Chaels taken in his latest set of losses. People aren't even bothering to stay canon and triangle him anymore.

Could someone explain to me where the unbearably stupid "WAR ______!!!!1!1" poo poo came from in places like Sherdog and the UG? for like 10+ yearsI haven't known what it could possibly mean and for some reason I've decided I must know.

While Lost For Words' link correctly identifies the Auburn battle cry as the origin, I believe using "WAR ____" to cheer on non-Auburn things originated on the Jim Rome show.

Meanwhile Sonnen can't use TRT anymore and his last and only win in a long time has been against a way past his prime Shogun. As rheinhold mentioned, Shogun is way less washed up than Wanderlei at this point in time and Shogun was a MUCH bigger threat all around, his timing and accuracy standing up and his ability to sweep and submit from the bottom are way more than Wanderlei could have ever offered up at any point in time. Wanderlei isn't as good as his record suggests, and from 2004-2014 he's been on the receiving end of a crazy amount of damage. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rexhjiOL3_0 Also, there's the fact that we did see them fight sort of, and Chael immediately took Wanderlei down. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=177Nz93z9lc edit: it's worth watching this full scene because at the end Wanderlei says "I preach nonviolence all the time"

Well that punishment has come at the hands of Jones and Rashad so I don't think you can really take anything from those losses other than he can't beat guys that are better fighters that are also bigger than he is. These guys are light-heavyweight strap holders and Chael is a bloated middleweight also-ran.

Everybody here loved Wanderlei a few years ago: they told stories about him chewing gum with Don Frye and dressing up like Santa Claus to distribute presents to impoverished children. Now it turns out he's an rear end in a top hat. My faith in the PSP hivemind is shattered.
