Strickland is better than this thread thinks he is.

He just gets the colby downgrade because "i don't like him" but he's a legit world class fighter.

When he was down on his knee staring shell-shocked up at Strickland wailing on him I legit thought the ref was going to call it. That he was up and moving around seemingly none the worse for wear 5 seconds later shows why I would probably be a bad UFC ref. Another way I suspect this is that I don't know most of the rules.

strickland seems good at walking izzy down.

izzy's feints don't seem to be as effective as they usually are

funniest outcome?


1. Strickland wins. Pereira moves back down and KO's Strickland
2. Strickland wins. Pereira moves back down and gets KO'd by Strickland

I wonder if it's really hard to get sparring partners that fight like Strickland, he just casually walks forward in a really bizarre way
