Last chance for everyone to get on the Young Mauler Gus Volvo Branded WarWagon, otherwise Keen and I take the Nostradamus cap from Heelio.
I don't see Schaub beating Meathead. His only option is wrestle fuck. Meathead is better than that... I think.
Jon Jones going to show howbigsmall of a draw he actually is.
Very little hype and the card is basically riding on him
Gus has a great chin so most likely we will get 4 rounds out of the fight.
GSP doesn't need good support cards. He carried a co-main event of Sean McCorkle vs. Stefan Struve to 800k buys.
It would be nice if this were the year of the upset in the UFC. Overeem getting exposed and Anderson getting caught while clowning wouldn't compare to Jones losing to this guy. Benson... was expected, though I doubt many expected that seven-fight win streak to be snapped in round one.young mauler new champ saturday believe
Tbf to Gus though I think Shogun looked much better in that fight than he did against Jones, even taking into account the way the fights went. He was leaner, moving better etc...Gus just about beat a over the hill Shogun. He has nothing for Jones.
For me the last time Shogun looked good was the first Machida fight. He doesn't move or kick at all due to all the previous knee injuries.
I agree that the first Machida fight was his best most recent showing, but I think you're overlooking/misremembering the Gustafsson fight. Shogun was throwing kicks and moving pretty well (especially compared to his performance against say, Vera), at least for the first half of the fight. I also don't think Gus winning by decision should be held against him given Shogun's chin. Once again though, I don't think that fight proves Gus is a world-beater or should be favoured against Jones, just that it was a better win than some treat it.For me the last time Shogun looked good was the first Machida fight. He doesn't move or kick at all due to all the previous knee injuries. I just don't think Gus decisioning current Shogun is huge.
Edit: I want to see a competitive fight but I can't see that happening. Hope I'm wrong though.
I'm not sure if they're the top three but Shogun, Machida and Sonnen were his quickest wins at the top level and showcase his skills in both striking and grappling.I'm not too familiar with Jones' output, what are his top three fights so I can get prepared?
Sorry Commander. Ilir Latifi has as good as a chance as Gus.
Yup. Shogun's done.
Injuries took their toll, and then Jones emasculated him. It's hard to come back from that.
I'm not too familiar with Jones' output, what are his top three fights so I can get prepared?
Jones has done that to everyone to be fair.
Damn Gus is pretty damn big. I'm starting to believe that if Gus starts throwing those bungaloos, Bones won't handle it too well.
That's what I'm counting on. Being punched in the face with any appreciable force for the first time in his life might change things.has anyone tested Bones's chin? from memory, can't remember anyone landing good shots in the last couple of years.

If I remember correctly, Rampage and Rashad got in a lucky hit in forcing Jones to run away and reset his range - no-one's dazed him or made him do the chicken dance yet.
Machida got some punches in too. Not for too long thought..
what time do the fb prelims start?
Gus is right in one thing, Bones has slow hands and feet.
Am I the only one who likes Phlipou, dude has got some power in his hands. Plus he is cypriot.
The question is, does Meathead give a fuck?

He was winning until he lostOne punch. Literally one punch. And Machida stans were ready to award him the round for it.
