Mir/Dos Santos

[joey54]

This all heavy weight card is interesting. May be a train wreck if the fights go awhile. I am going to be cheering for Mir. What a story if he could come back and win the title yet again. Dos Santos is top notch though and certainly the overwhelming favorite.

I agree this card has the potential to be great. Dos Santos is going to murder Mir I think but you never know anything can happen in MMA. I think Cain could lose this fight again Bigfoot I just have a feeling Bigfoot is going to get the KO/TKO. I also think Lavar is going to KO struve to quick for struve to get the fight to the ground.

I'm still bitter about not getting to see Overeem fight.

Getting close now. Predictions:

JDS
Velasquez
Herman
Miocic
Struve

Good stuff, I love fights with a finish.

[joey54]

Pretty good one. Not sure if I like the idea of a Cain/JDS rematch so quickly if that is what they are going to do. Would rather see the Werdum/JDS rematch first. Well, Werdum needs to win in Brazil next month. They are limited in contenders at HW with Reem suspended and Cormier in SF for one more fight. If anything, the best fight may Jon Jones against JDS. Though with his DUI thing, how is that going to affect him?

[tom183]

Pretty good PPV.

I also like the idea of a Werdum rematch (assuming he beats Russow) instead of Cain but I don't see it happening.

What weight would you like to see Jones vs JDS fight at and who do you think would win?

[joey54]

HWT. Prior to this DUI arrest, I would pick Jon Jones over anyone except for JDS and that would be a toss up. Now with this out of the cage stuff, who knows.

But, the UFC isn't going to match up guys out of weight classes for super fights. They are about making long term money, not always providing the best match ups.

Damnit, I am a Mir fan, but he just gets too comfortable being punched in his face. JDS fought a smart fight by staying away from Frank when he would go down. Even the last blows on the ground JDS stayed to the side and peppered him with a few parting hammer fists.

I really wish Frank would spend some time with high level wrestlers. With his bjj if he could really learn how to take good shots he'd have a much better chance against top level fighters. I mean the last place any fighter wants to be with Mir is on the ground. I just think Mir is complacent.

I do have to say I am crazy impressed with JDS hands. And after Cain's performance I think he deserves his rematch. He looked like he was on a mission. I don't think he'll get caught like he did in the original fight with JDS.

I really enjoyed the card. I like watching the big guys.
