The more I think about TJ + Bang and their kickboxing formula, and the way garbrandt attacks, Im leaning towards a KO a little bit. Not sure for which guy. Probably garbrandt

I don't think tj's attacks are more difficult to defend against than Dom's and I can't stop seeing Dom committing to, and whiffing, a dozen strikes in a row.

If TJ wins by stoppage i think it will be tko or sub after hurting him with strikes. I don't think he will get a KO unless he hits him with a big high kick or something. TJ doesn't seem to have a lot of power

i think tj does more damage than cruz and hes committed to trying to wear the other guy down and beat them up unlike cruz

i think everyone in this thread has always said vitor is insanely dangerous and prone to gassing and giving up which isn't really sleeping on him so much as saying exactly what's prone to happening when he fights.

i defended vitor for years but the fact is he was always roided and one dimensional. its a great dimension but hes never been able to win a fight where he had to do anything but exchange with slower, sloppier punchers

I don't think there's really anyone else whose highs have been so high and whose lows have been so low. He's absolutely had a hall of fame career for fighting in the UFC for 20 years alone.

alistair is a better version of vitor. he roided more and won more stuff

another thing to consider is that since tkz went on sabbatical featherweight has turned into a loving shark tank. my concern is that even if tkz comes back as good as when he left, he'd maybe be a top 15 guy at this point.

Im not concerned about that because Aldo is still the best and TKZ was very competitive. Not fighting for two years is bad but he was good

Yoel finishes people in the third round of three round fights all the time. The rest of the time, he wins by decision.

hes an obvious cheat but hes a ko threat big time for 3 rounds and also a ragdoll threat although he does seem like a dumb aggressive guy who might not have the best defense . i dont know if bisping is going to be able to outwork yoel but he has the guts and cardio to survive yoels best i think. hes kinda relying on taking over in the final 3 rounds, or yoel gassing from beating him up

I never ever EVER thought I'd be typing this but Bisping is really good at a lot of things.

Why though? Is it because gsp's probably not the same anymore or because you really think tyron could beat regular gsp?

I think wonderboy gets taken down and destroyed, and Woodley get picked apart from range.

He did visibly lose a step after the knee injury.

i dont think the last gsp i saw is going to dominate the top guys. even if he wins i think its going to look more like nick/condit/hendricks

Wouldn't it be another boring ground control exercise like GSP vs Diaz, which for some reason people are clamoring to see a rematch of? Conor got taken down by Chad$, who is 20-30 pounds smaller than GSP, doesn't have as good a top game, and doesn't train with Olympic wrestlers.

I'll grant that GSP fights are more likely to be good and cool than Mayweather fights, but in both cases I'm amazed that there is hype for fights that are likely to be really boring and one-sided (GSP vs Diaz 2, GSP vs Conor, Mayweather vs anyone).

diaz not only survived he made gsp work enough that gsp got tired . nicks got one of the best guards for not taking hits. Conor would have to be pretty hard to control on the ground to make it to diaz levels of success
