Skip My Posts posted:while mm is way better than cruz in every way he is much smaller and will be taken down by tj i'd bet i don't think this will happen but it had better or it won't really be close. for perspective, i still think tj / dodson would be competitive at 125 / 135 (ignoring their first fight) and dodson doesn't belong in the same cage as mm.

tj only has a size advantage and if he can't use it effectively mm will wreck him

Watching then fight Lineker back to back I don't think Dodson would be competitive with TJ anymore.

risky move for tj if his last two title attempts are losses vs my grandmothers bone density and my brothers Xbox chat party

As I watched tj land a hundred unanswered, undefended shots on barao, who is still standing, I think to myself 'There's a man with formidable power'

He was hitting Cruz with flush head kicks and they did nothing.

I'm not going to say getting hit by tj tickles, but I'm not going to consider his power as a significant factor in a fight with mighty mouse

Tj doesn't have a lot of power which is what allowed Cruz to even be competitive with him but he's so good right now I think tj would school Dodson at this point

Tj doesn't have huge power because of how he moves but he does tend to throw a really hard one when he settles into his strikes a bit more. He wont have that luxury against DJ because he angles so well in his own right.

In other Fighter's Retreat news, God's Gift Platinum Mike Perry claims to have pushed Jeremy Stephens to the ground as Stephens tried to grind on his girl at the Snoop Dogg concert. Luckily he intervened "mid-thrust," before contact was made. "He was mad as hell but he didn't do poo poo. He was trying to be a dick, but he's 145 pounds, he doesn't want these problems. Who the gently caress is that guy, bro?" In conclusion, Platinum continues to own.

LobsterMobster posted:if only he picked his team based on good fighters instead of "uhh, he's from Ohio, I'll take him" Yeah, and holy poo poo he's so drat close to actually being the worst coach ever in TUF history if he hasn't passed that point yet. 2 more prelim fights and he's gone 0-6 so far, half of the matches he's picked too. cis autodrag posted:is the tuf season worth catching up on? they're all piled on my dvr but i just haven't given a gently caress to sit through them so far. I think it is. It's nice to see what the guys were up to in the time since their TUF runs and how they've put their poo poo together etc. Duzzy Funlop posted:I haven't really been emotionally invested in any of the last 10 or so TUF seasons, but if Julian loving Lane is the first one to turn it around for Cody - against Stripper Ramsay, no less - I'm gonna be bummed.

I haven't watched TUF in a few years but Garbrandt really can't be worse than loving Ken Shamrock, can he?
|
# ? May 25, 2017 10:14 |

Cody's probably a better coach than Ken in that he actually knows what it takes to train and compete in MMA in the era the show is taking place in, but he seems more like a team member than a team captain. They're probably getting decent training from the Team Alpha Male guys, but Cody made dumb fighter picks, has made dumb fight picks, had everyone do that facial release therapy BS, and doesn't even corner his fighters, so what little influence he's had hasn't been great. Saki just announced that he's signed with the UFC. Does he have any grappling background at all, or is he doomed to get wrestled to death?
|
# ? May 25, 2017 11:25 |

Saki hasn't fought regularly in forever because of a number of issues, one is that he couldn't get through camp without being injured and maintain his weight. The other is he wouldn't fight cheap. He didn't look great against Ciobanu like 2 years ago, and that's a guy he would've effortlessly stomped 5 years ago. He's spent so much time inactive it's hard to say where he stands in kickboxing let alone a different sport. Interested to see if he stays at 205 or not

chaleski posted:I haven't watched TUF in a few years but Garbrandt really can't be worse than loving Ken Shamrock, can he? No. But he did pick fighters based on whether or not they were from the midwest and not at all on how much skill they possessed so his team sucks. Really, it's just sad at how butthurt the entire Alpha Male team is over Dillashaw leaving.

chaleski posted:I haven't watched TUF in a few years but Garbrandt really can't be worse than loving Ken Shamrock, can he? Garbrandt won't sit in his fighters corner and coach, but will sit on the bench with the boys shouting and throwing poo poo around. Meanwhile TJ is with them the whole way through. That said his coaching isn't awful like Shamrocks but his record sure makes it seem that way. sportsgenius86 posted:Really, it's just sad at how butthurt the entire Alpha Male team is over Dillashaw leaving. It's been like how many months/years since it all happened? They're still crying about it. It's hilarious.

I liked Justin Buttholez asking Ludwig about the Championship Pedigree at his gym, as if the whole joke about TAM was to be perpetual runners up before Duane got there to teach them "punch #1"

I looked it up, if Garbrandt can win both the remaining fights he'll be on par as a coach as Shamrock. If he loses one then his coaching record is worse than Kenny boy.

i feel like even if cody's guys lsoe every fight its mostly because he picked the worse fighters more than bad coaching

I think thats always the case on TUF because no matter how good/bad a coach you are you arent actually changing anyone while they live in a reality tv house with each other for a month
