Stipe is by far the most personable champ in the ufc. Hes fucking hilarious too. Very happy hes the main event on this card but im nervous its not gonna do as good as it should.
Fucking lol at the gsp fight getting canned. Bisping loses out on his big money fight and is going to get ko'd. Guess they're gonna try and make GSP/Silva once again. That's what happens when you put all your trust in a goofy Canadian. Dude has always been wishy washy
As far as Bisping/ Romero... I feel like that is actually the best match up for Bisping out of the top contenders. Romero doesn't have the jitz of someone like Souza, but he also doens't have nearly as crisp of boxing as bisping. I could see him wining a decision in similar fashion to the henderson fight.
I can't say who will win. First fight was close and both men threw hands. I think someone gets ko'd this time. Stipe has looked like a monster since the first fight but it's the heavyweight division so anything can happen. War Joanna tho!
Both have improved in leaps and bounds over the last 2 years. They are both pretty hittable but i think JdS has gotten better defensively of late. If stipe can consistently apply pressue i think its his fight. I just feel like JdS footwork is going to deny that.
Stipe is probably my favorite champ right up there with conor doe. Rooting heavy for him.
dont know about jds improving he's 1-1 since that fight. got ko'd by Overeem and beat a very beatable Ben Rothwell. Rothwell may have well been on a four fight win streak but his style wasn't fit for JDS. Don't know anyone that thought Rothwell had a chance.
record doesn't show improvement. His footwork is markedly better. Hes also always been a body puncher but now hes using the body jab to keep the pressure off of him and create space. Rothwell did a good job of pressuring him and still didn't get off any offense because JDS was actually pivoting. Which is something we hadn't really seen from him before.
Stipe also had his wrestling shut down in the first fight. I feel like he needs to use this effectively to win this fight.
Best HW matchup in a long time. I think its gonna be a banger.
Cain is the only fighter that was able to use their wrestling against JDS. That's what made JDS so good is he was always able to keep the fight standing. I didn't think Ben would be able to take JDS down or even had a chance and it showed. I don't think Junior has been tested enough for a title shot but it's the heavyweight division so whatever.
