yoel vs DC at lhw isn't a fight I knew I wanted but now that it's been put in my mind I think it would be incredible. Romero has a tendency to either freeze his opponents or kill them and you gotta wonder how DCs pressure style would interact with that. Nobody's ever been able to beat Romero up. Whittaker staved off his attacks and in the process of surviving happened to land more strikes. DC might be able to do that but I wanna see it

It's a nice substitute for his utter lack of personality, charisma or ability to be interesting in any way. eric posted:Who doesn’t love a good maga hat? Woodley should be glad Covington is promoting the fight. A fight against RDA would have been a fight pass main event. If only he was promoting it well.

Smothering Yoel might be a good idea for a wrestler of DC’s caliber, almost all of Yoel’s KO’s are from boxing range.

Yoel can KO moving backwards (or at least while the opponent is coming in), but I assume AKA could figure out a few entry tactics to get Yoel on his back foot without risking too much.

I know this is going to be controversial, because it’s kind of wild, but I think the current two-division champion who just dominated and delivered a first-round knockout to the only guy to ever defend the UFC heavyweight belt three times does not even come close to losing to the guy who is moving up a division just to be a division below the one where Cormier just won the belt.

i don't like the way dc ducks his head down and bends at the waist against yoel. i dunno it just seems like he'd be putting his head into something powered by a million cuban steroids

let's not forget the most feared striker at LHW was Rumble, another former middleweight. I think romero not coming off of a murderous weight cut would be able to keep up a much higher work rate and would be incredibly frightening. the real question is how much bigger could he get with the time he's got left in his career.

Well Rumble did have a single fight at middleweight, for which he weighed in at 197 lbs.

Yoel fought at 205 before. His fight against Feijao was amazing. He threw zero punches, and just kept moving. He gassed hard in the second round, stopped moving and got brutally knocked out. Flawless performance

Israel Adesanya posted an instagram video of Brendan Schaub offering the mildest, Taco Bell-iest of takes on UFC strikers and Uncle Dana flipped the gently caress out and it's real good Schaub is real butthurt, called Dana a fat bald bitch, and is now making vague threats at Dana on Twitter.

It makes perfect sense that Mike Perry thinks Rogan is smart enough to hit him up first for any and all advice. "Hey @JoeRogan I'm here at Publix and there's Ketchup AND Catsup in this aisle. Help"

i cannot believe dana has done anything in his entire life that he would be embarrassed or ashamed about and definitely hasn't done anything to brendan schaub personally that 51% of people wouldn't either back up or laugh at.

un-supplemented chad mendes better than a washed up, disinterested myles 'fury' jury? man this boise card actually does not suck. elkins / volkanovski is an insanely sick fight that's buried on the prelims and they've even got a freak show fight where justin scoggins, small child man, is fighting who i assume is lightweight champion nurmagomedov on the prelims
