Stipe has cardio, don't confuse that with him being really good because the only dominant performances ever seen out of them were 2 mismatches and the rest is generally dreary pointfighting that he doesn't win against the best HW has thrown at him so far

Stipe looked pretty great tonight. I fell asleep during most of the event but I saw some of the earlier fights that insane green trunks vs black trunks fight was hilarious and round 2 was incredible. Considering Junior Dos Santos is my favorite fighteri n the UFC I can't stand the fact that he almost lost to Stipe in what was just a punch war between two of the best punchers in the UFC. I think Stipe is pretty awesome and this was an amazing display by him but drat he didn't get any love in that arena. Meowbot fucked around with this message at 06:17 on May 10, 2015 |

Marching Powder posted:mark hunt in good form is an excellent kickboxer and very, very hard to take down. that wasn't mark hunt in there he's old and has had two bad fights in a row. This might be the Mark Hunt that we're going to have to get used to now. Although he has what, 3 fights left on his contract that he's going to retire after anyways? They'll hopefully just line him up against some people he can knock out easily so he can go out on a high note

T-Bone posted:What would Stipe's path to victory be vs Cain outside of an early JDS styled KO? His gas tank seems pretty unreal so maybe he could keep him at bay with his standup and grind a decision out? get top position somehow don't get punched while trying to get top position don't get taken down or held against the cage and punched

After 3 rounds, people were calling for the fight to be stopped in my section because people we feeling bad for Mark Hunt But it kept going for 1 and a bit more rounds. Also, I missed two crazy finishes with an ill timed loo break. Dis loving card. That Astro Girl finish was one of the best moments of my life.

I had to check out at the end of Round 2 to do some Mothers Day stuff. That was probably a good decision, in retrospect...

I don't think I'll be watching this main event, but props to Stipe on what appears to be a total annihilation of the not handsome (no longer face) GOAT.

I haven't watched the fight yet, but those Sherdog guys also give out 10-10 rounds pretty often last I checked, which are retarded and thankfully do not really happen with real judges.
