DC would slaughter Anderson but FUCK IT WHY NOT


How are you guys counting out Silva. Even Gus with his overrated boxing put a hurting on Cormier.

Anderson struggles with wrestlers and DC a bigger, stronger, and way more skilled wrestler than anyone else he fought.

Weidman (or Chael for that matter) isn't nearly the wrestler Cormier is and he was able to take Anderson down reliably. Cormier will rag doll Anderson at this point in his career.
 

Aiii

So not worth it

With two days notice and two fights since 2013, a NC and a loss?

Against Cormier who was training to fight?

How do you even fathom Silva having a remote chance?

I don't doubt that Cormier could easily put a grappling beatdown on Silva but to say he has no chance is ludicrous.

Dana says he has two options right now. One non-title and one for the title. Finalizing the decision as we speak.

I'd give so much credit to DC if he makes it a title fight.

Think about all the planning and training he did only for him to go up against somebody with a completely different style than Jones.

I don't think any real title shot aside from Bones could headline over Brock x Hunt tbh. Silva vs Cormier is perfect for the co- main. I have zero interest in watching Cormier beat the shit out of Gus or Moose but Silva just adds to the spectacle.

Gus also said he can't make it to Vegas by 200 anymore. That ship has sailed.
 
The title fight is absolutely not Gus. Not only could he not make the weight this fast, but his team said a few hours ago that it's too late now for him to make it to Vegas in time.

If it's a title fight, it's almost certainly Mousasi considering he can make the weight.

I've arranged a big BBQ and UFC themed party on Sat to watch UFC 200 with friends.
Many of those friends are casual fans and with the exception of one, none of them are hardcore MMA fans at all.

This shit is embarrassing...

Why is it embarrassing? What's the issue?
 
Keep in mind that if it's a title fight, the opponent has to make the weight. No top LHW is making 205 on a days notice. Most of them walk around at 230-ish. That's why Mousasi is the only one that really makes sense as a title fight.

You know the Jones/DC fight falling out sucks immensely but y'all saying this card sucks now are delusional. Every fight features a huge name still, and they're going to find DC a replacement.

Holy shit if the Anderson rumor is true. I mean, it would've been even more holy shit before his chin went, but still. It would be fitting to have him on the card regardless for sure.

Edit: ah shit debunked.
