It always fucks me up how good Stipe is. If he isn't already then assuming he gets past JDS he'll have to be considered one of the greatest heavyweights ever. Add on the likely future fights vs Velazquez, Werdum. If he doesn't hit a bad streak of health issues the guy seems like he's got quite a few years in him.

Tezcatlipoca posted:He also gets dropped every fight so I could see him getting knocked out by any of the other heavyweights and never contending again. While that's true he has been showing crazy power and accuracy light on his feet and not a lot of guys at hw have to think about that a lot. A guy like Derrick Lewis (<3) wouldn't have anything for him.

I rate Stipe so high because of how weirdly plain his dominance is. He doesn't give me that Cain thing that you mentioned, but when I look back on his fights they always impress me even more than they did initially. He's never going to be as exciting as a Silva matrix move reel or have that Brock Lesnar bulldozer appeal, his skills are subtle and a little hard to pin down. And don't get me wrong I'm anything but a Stipe fart huffer, I was dying for Reem to destroy him. After that fight I revisited some of his older ones and came away thinking he's going to be good for a while. At worst he'll likely age into a strongdad who brutally KOs a mid level hw once a year.

IMO once Bisping defeats the one exact mythical challenger who I believe could never lose to him, then he will be a good fighter.

I'm pretty sure Bourdain is good friends with the Diaz bros. He has been training BJJ for a while now.

El Roncho posted:Speaking of white whine, Iaquinta is asking to be cut apparently. God I hate him more every time I see anything about him. I hope he fucks off to Bellator soon so I never have to hear him speak again.

I buy wine every once in a while and quickly realize it's gross unless it's cheap cold sweet wine and go back to whiskey and vodka.

Fat Twitter Man posted:this is how every korean in the ufc actually fights nice Is there actually any science behind "training your chin"? The only thing I can imagine is gaining the mental toughness to not be afraid and panic when you're rattled but it's not like a training partner is going to go in for the kill like a real opponent would so it's bunk.

Chillanese posted:e; On the first embedded, Stipe picked up a rabbit trap and said it looked like a sex toy. He's the perfect guy to replace Tim Sylvia. He also said he wanted a metal detector because he saw Peter buying one on Family Guy. Stipe owns.

attackmole posted:Gus has literally been to prison for beating the poo poo out of people when he was a teenager. The contrast between them is wonderful. Gus was a shithead who had a good chance of ending up dead or in jail and turned that around into being a great respected fighter. Jones is a freak athlete who plugged into MMA near flawlessly but has the mental consistency and attitude of a totally nice rich boy born again christian stereotype. I don't know what I would rather see. D.C. wrestlefuck him or grab a submission or Gus KO him. He's the best heel but not in the fun way.
