well that goes without saying if he comes back I am sick of seeing these post wish people would just give DC his time in the spotlight at the end of the day Jones is a) not a UFC fighter at the moment B) when and if he comes back that will be dealt with then right now we got a new LHC and some interesting fights to be had.Bones to smash Cormier when he comes back. No matter what people think of him and what dodgy crap he's done, he's still the best around.
Belfort got what he deserved - go Weidman!
I noticed you mentioned that you've only been watching MMA since late last year. My analysis of the Cormier/Jones fight would have been terrible after watching MMA for that amount of time.Also, I don't think Jones will have it as easy as he did the first time round. They weren't even that far apart the first time round. Cormier wasn't even out struck in the stand up and did well in the clinch. DC would have clearly won 1 round and had two rounds where they were 60/40 Jones' way. Jones will probably beat him but DC was in no way embarrassed the same way Rumble was at 187.
What are some fights they should make after 187?
The logical fight for DC should be Bader but DC is pretty much superior in every way. Gus would be a challenge as he is probably better in the stand up than DC but Gus has only just come off a humiliating defeat against Rumble.
Cerrone apparently has the next title shot but RDS might be injured for a while.
Arloski should fight JDS or Overeem with the winner getting the next title shot against Cain/Werdum.
Weidman to fight Rockhold next. Rockhold has the personality of a rock. Will be going for Weidman.
What has DC done that's making you dislike him?I actually think i'll be rooting for Jones *when* they meet again, next time around. DC's really, really rubbing me up the wrong way. He'll get brought back down to Earth with a thud in the rematch.
I was going to reply to this before but forgot to. Was listening to the MMA Hour and they spoke about something like this. Browne vs Arlovski was a terrific fight and as a 1 round fight it was just about as good as you could hope for. Check out Nick Diaz vs Paul Daley, either on UFC Fight Pass or I'm sure you could find it somewhere else. It was an even better 1 round fight imo.The Browne vs Arlovski was the single greatest round I've ever seen. (I've only started following UFC late last year)
This is a pretty accurate assessment when you compare Brazil to the other countries that produce a lot of high level fighters. The reason that Brazilian fighters' wrestling isn't as good as other countries is because of the martial arts systems in place. The US has kids wrestling from a very young age, so fighters from America have a leg up. Russian fighters, more specifically fighters from the North Caucasus are doing wrestling, sambo and judo from a young age. Dagestani fighters in particular are enjoying a lot of success in MMA because of these programs, especially for a region with such a small population. Brazil has a very sound base in BJJ and various striking styles, such as muay thai and kickboxing.It might be an incorrect stereotype but I swear Brazilians have the worst wrestling.
