Obviously not a Diaz fan. I'm pretty neutral when it comes to the Diaz bros, but there is a reason they have such a following. As for suggesting that his brother is the only one who thinks he won - You're either talking complete rubbish (which is pretty likely) or are pretty ignorant. Go on to...
Totally deserved it. Incoming strikeforce champ who was originally slated to fight GSP, then battered the * out of Penn and then in many peoples minds beat Condit in a controversial division. From a business perspective it was also the money fight at the time. Besides who said anything...
I reckon he's concentrating on a great 2016 and has forgotten all about it. Seriously, it's in the past and a non issue. The game wasn't won and lost in that moment alone.
I've also got a feeling he'll be on the senior list in 2017. I only managed to see him play for peel once last year, and he didn't star, but his athleticism was really apparent. Another year learning the game and then he'll be hard to stop.
The mind games caused him to attack recklessly like that. Given McGregors length, movement and striking ability it's crazy that Aldo didn't attempt to soften him up with leg kicks first.
PMSL
Yeah, I actually thought stylistically Pettis and McGregor would be a great match up. Both unique strikers, who would be evenly matched. Pettis has his number on the ground I'd say.
Bitch please. Enough with the act. We all know that If Bennell wanted to play for the cokers youd have recruited him and you would be personally stoked with the decision.
Yep, you're right. It does mean nothing. I'm not even going to go into the number of athletes who are known (and some admitted) PED users who never or at least went years without testing positive. Say hi to the unicorns for me.
Yeah, Mir prior to his bike crash was almost exclusively a BJJ player. He's trained with Maia and has said he's like a brown belt in comparison. Pretty high praise coming from someone who submitted Nogueira.
Can't really think of any others off hand - He's not really thought of as a BJJ guy and probably rightly so, but I think Pettis's BJJ game is pretty underrated. The way he submitted both Henderson and Melendez was pretty dynamic and impressive IMO. I'd probably mention Nurmagamedov although he's...
Bog Average? I think you over estimate his skills on the feet :p. Best BJJ in the entire promotion (IMO) but very poor on the feet. I wouldn't even say he has average stand up, He's almost the equivalent of a white belt striker.... almost. Deadly grappling though of course.
I'm not against Fyfe, but the sentimental bastard in me wants Pav to stay as skipper. If he's not going to I wouldn't mind seeing Walters. Trains and prepares well, sets good example, respected by the group, gun. Ticks all the boxes
Opening goal vs Port in 2012 and I'd have to go back and check but I reckon his second goal against the crows in the semi final that year was also outside 50.
You're right he doesn't often do it, but you're claiming "he can't kick 50m". Not being able to and not doing it very often are two...
