whoever said that he wants jones to lose to dc, then to gustaffson for the shot, then to rumble, then he moves to heavyweight and gets retired by mark hunt: same

as far as any singular accomplishment goes i think tj deserves serious consideration for outclassing and then wrecking a guy in the 'p4p rankings'. if you're ranked in the p4p list, you should not be able to be dismantled and if you are, it's an incredible achievement..... but once a fighter is defeated he wasn't that good anyway let's stop pretending he was back o the line tj

jon jones is a good fighter who tattles on marijuana doers while he himself commits worse atrocities - unforgivable anderson silva was a good fighter but talks like a girl and nearly blew his coaches head off because 'reasons' chael sonnen is cool and was doing god's work by roiding to defeat these stains on humanity. i'm comfortable saying this because he has a personality that's entertaining for the right reasons.

i see uriah hall is fighting some guy in the hopes that he'll be able to finally do something of note in the real ufc. it's good that his friend john howard is on the same card. they can hang out and be friendly as long as they don't put it on tv and call it a fight. also parke / tibau is a good fight to see where parke's at.. his style is decision based but he's by no means terrible to watch. it's a good step up rather than getting blown away by masvidal imo. pretty good free card.

He did kneebar Brandon Vera in that same tournament, though. ah. still i think this qualifies for 'is good on the ground' to be a fairly uncontroversial statement. i hope roy kills overeem. christ hendo / gayhard is going to be awful.

freud mayweather posted:what's controversial is stating that overeem would be more scared to take him down than to keep it standing. nelson has never shown a dangerous guard, but has KO'd a whole mess of dudes standing. I posit that dealing with the ground game of a guy who can out grapple Frank Mir might be less appealing than watching out for literally one dangerous punch

freud mayweather posted:laying his fat body on frank mir in 1999 says absolutely nothing about how he would fare off his back, where his mass would actually work against him, and he would have the dexterity of roy nelson. nelson is a fat turtle on his back. it's been a couple years since nelson/mir in the ufc, but i don't remember him being able to do anything off his back when mir tossed him around. are you asserting that a bjj black belt will be completely stymied because he's on his back? and you are aware that the person who (might) be on top of him is alistair overeem and not frank mir?

Dangersim posted:Nelson's last submission was over some guy named Jerome Smith in 2006. Also Struve has a good guard and Overeem was fine. it seems to me that no-one wants to go to the ground with roy for a reason. if his bjj was not threatening, why would so many people be content to stand and accept the only weapon he has available to him?
