manyak posted:I think he wouldve had a better chance against either of those guys than Frankie but i could see either of them taking him down and grinding out a decision See I don't think they mix up takedowns with effective strikes enough to take down BJ. Frankie did not have an easy time in the first fight and he was absolutely the best technical MMA wrestler at the time. He knew exactly when to fight the hands, bail on attempts, etc. The other guys tend to just pick up their opponent and trip/toss, which I think BJ could have resisted. BJ's weakness is and was angles and I don't think those guys have them. Remember BJ wrestled the poo poo out of Fitch right after losing to Frankie. I see those two guys being more similar to the former than the latter.

tesilential posted:Like unless GSP has totally revamped his game he is going to be one of the most predictable fighters in the octagon. How much tape is out on him at this point? There's a lot of tape on GSP, but now everyone thinks his set up to the double leg is to freeze in place for 10 seconds and spin a hoola hoop on his face

I don't want to see GSP back because there's nobody I want to see him fight. Also he quit the sport in terror because a fat, sleeping man might have been on steroids.

Let's not spread misinformation. He quit because he had brain damage and thought he'd been abducted by aliens.

tesilential posted:Speaking of old guys making comebacks, am I absolutely insane for believing that BJ Penn matches up well and would have easily beaten Bendo and Gray had Frankie not pulled his card? Before you all poo poo on Bendo again remember that this would have been the end-of-WEC era Ben Henderson. That's not an easy LW fight for anyone anywhere.

He only wrestled Fitch for the first part of the fight though then got tired which is why it was a Draw, and these presumably wouldve been 5 round fights. And bendo has good conditioning and wouldve had a size advantage over BJ versus Frankie who was smaller than BJ. I think Bendo matches up pretty decently with him in a 5 rounder

Seeing Marcus Davis get mauled by Ben Saunders was one of the most satisfying experiences of my MMA life. It makes me sad to see the Barbarian train with his dumb rear end. Intel, I know what album your AV is parodying...but I can't figure it out. What am I missing?

DumbWhiteGuy posted:who knows what weight class he'll come back to, but this is about as good a matchup that gsp could ask for Didn't he just recently say he's still walking at ~185 and is too small for middle? I know he's said he could make lightweight but I can't see where that has any upside to justify a cut he's never even made before. manyak posted:He only wrestled Fitch for the first part of the fight though then got tired which is why it was a Draw, and these presumably wouldve been 5 round fights. And bendo has good conditioning and wouldve had a size advantage over BJ versus Frankie who was smaller than BJ. I think Bendo matches up pretty decently with him in a 5 rounder BJ and Bendo are the exact same height and wingspan. Fitch had an 8cm advantage in both and has wins (against garbage like Shonie Carter and a decrepit Dennis Hallman) at middleweight. Frankie Edgar is small for featherweight and must hate cutting weight a lot.
