UFC 187: Johnson vs. Cormier

[sloop]

Also ignore the red some ******* negged me for no reason just to make me red.

Tried to give you my poverty reps but on recharge.

[superamped]

if he tkos vitor standing up then i will bow and bayleaf. bow and bayleaf.

[Murrmanski]

gotta be chopped....I remember him looking way different....HE kicked Brock Lesnar's ass? HIM? REALLY? Bad photo angle.

Nah that's what he looks like. He's not tall or big, or muscular. He's just an animal with insane killer instinct/cardio/pain tolerance/will to win.

Physique means nothing in fighting

I'm sure you're right. I just remember him bigger lol.

[TheJizzler]

I'm sure you're right. I just remember him bigger lol.

Don't worry. In between the hard sparring and sharktanks, AKA's head coach will have him training his shoulders, knees and lower back vigorously for his return. All whilst running a steep caloric defecit

They know what they're doing...

[sword_]

bye DADDYYYYY!!!!

[scooterbrah]

[Wcustom]

TRT Vitor > All the MW's

Current Vitor.. I'm not sure anymore

[uchoom]

bye DADDYYYYY!!!!

Oh man can only how much it would've sucked to leave after that.

[Deathstroke]

Fingers crossed Weidman stomps Vitor's ass. Cormier/Johnson, I'm definately interested, but not cheering for one over the other.

u mirin his Brock Stompin dad bod?

[AllNaturalTom]

Dad bod Vitor has put in work on guys before, still a compelling fight imo. Yes picking Weidman though.

Genius call , repped . As much as id like to see weidman lose because he has the personality of a box of hair . The difference in vitors physique is so obvious . that we all know it will be a direct reflection of his fighting. Pre-ban vitor looked like a marvel super hero. " Dad Bod " cant regain that speed , strength and intensity.

[KingSWRV]

So when are we gonna start talking about Chris Weidman as the P4P best fighter in the UFC?

It literally blows my fuking brains through my skull the lack of respect this dude gets.

Don't get me wrong nobody necessarily says tons a bad things about him, its just the lack of good things people say.

This guy should be the poster boy for UFC in America.

THIS GUY BEAT ANDERSON SILVA TWO TIMES.

He's undefeated through 12 fights despite having no martial arts background. He came into this a few years ago with nothing but wrestling experience and now he's the ****ing world champ.

I'm tired of living in a world where Aldo, Velasquez and Rousey get more face time than him, TV commercials and all the love.

With that rant being said, he's going to absolutely destroy Vitor inside of 2 rounds.

All you Vitor nut huggers are going to be sore, I can't believe so many people see this even going to decision. Vitor gonna come in hot and swinging, Weidman will eat everything he has and break him on the mat, stand up in guard and drop bombs till the fight gets called.

Yeah agreed I think its because the way his physique seems almost skinny fat in a certain way but if you look closely he actually has a very deceptively athletic body type.

The best way I can describe Weidmans athletic capacity is that he really is as athletic as Vitor USED to look!

[joshatfield]

2011 vitor is back!

[mark2288]

My heart wants Vitor to win. His career is just INSANE. But, Weidman is the truth. Humble, tenacious and a family man. Going to be a war!

Rumble is going to knock Cormier to the 5th Dimension. Cormier is going to be able to time travel back to when Jones was arrested and have Jones straighten up to avoid that beating! LOL. This card is AMAZING!

[PepperedAngus]

After reading about Makdessi's company's so called sponsorship of other fighters, and how he neglected to actually pay any of them, Im firmly rooting for Cerrone to stomp a mudhole through him. I already was because its Cowboy, but now even moreso.

[DFS200]

Since the Jones arrest still happened, I guess Rumble isn't going to knock him back in time, unless Cormier squandered his time travel by attempting to frame Rumble for domestic abuse. He must be sh*tting his pants now knowing he's gonna get knocked out all over again.

Thank you for reminding me why I cannot support DC. Mentally quits vs. Jones, then makes this video. The perfect storm of indefensible actions.

[scooterbrah]

DC is coming off really poorly this week. him attacking bader and accusing him of trying to "jump the line" into a title shot was ridiculous. bader might be boring and have the personality of toilet paper but he has way more top 10 wins in the div than DC does and is on a winning streak. DC jumped the line now twice by having only 1 top 10 win vs an 80 year old hendo, a win over a barista on short notice, and losing badly to the real champ 4 months ago.

[scooterbrah]

regardless of the outcome in the co-main event, i can safely say that not very many fighters have brought me as much joy over the years than vitor belfort has. he is probably 2nd to wanderlei silva in that regard. i am def gonna miss him when he is gone from the sport.

[Deathstroke]

u mirin his Brock Stompin dad bod?

I don't. I like Brock's bod though.

Don't get me wrong nobody necessarily says tons a bad things about him, its just the lack of good things people say.

Most likely because he has the personality of a potato, and yes he deserves more respect which he'll most likely get over time, but he doesn't absolutely excel in one area, very well rounded though.

Has a couple great KO's, couple great subs but hasn't exactly been running through people like TRT jesus juice holy spirit vitor was his last 3 fights.

And watching his leg kicks in the machida fight looked comparable to a bum off the street's first muay thai class.

[cheachea]

DC Mang All Day. Can't wait for the Fight !!!!

[ScaleAndSteel]

Who I think will win:

1. DC - I think he avoids the KO threat and wears down Rumble and gets a champ round sub or dec
2. The Chris - I think he handles Vitor to be honest
3. Cerrone - not really that aware on Makdessi so this is more just me tossing it out there
4. Warlovski - don't know why but I think he makes another title run
5. Benavidez - seems a rather obvious choice to me to be honest



Who I will be rooting for:

1. Rumble with a first round KO - PLEASE Lord make it happen!!!
2. The Chris - I know Vitor has tons of fans but I just really like The Chris and hope he stays healthy and gets more active
3. Cerrone - always a fan (Makdessi could earn himself a new fan here though)
4. Warlovski - not sure why but I just think it would be sweet to see him make a run for it
5. Moraga - underdog, gotta go with the underdog here

rumble vs. DC

[1sttimecaller]

So hopefully I've bought some cred after telling you about Jones a day or so before it was reported, but I understand if you think I'm full of ****. But the hot rumor in the Vegas MMA community right now is Weidman/Vitor is in danger of being called off. Apparently Vitor's test levels have been bouncing up and down an absurd amount and the most recent test came back today registering at almost exactly the legal max despite having 80 year old man levels last month. While Vitor hasn't technically violated any rules, Weidman's camp is pressuring the NSAC to issue further testing between now and the fight which Belfort's camp won't agree to. White/The Ferttita's are trying to calm the situation.

This could be just posturing and an attempt to get in Vitor's head. Or it could be real and easily solved with Zuffa cutting Weidman a check in a backroom to make sure he calms down. But thought I'd pass it along.

If true, it's not surprising that Cheator is trying to get an edge.

The picture on the left is Cheator in 2013. The picture on the right is from the pre-fight photo shoot this week for UFC 187.



Looks like Cheator aged 20 years in 24 months, and he still skips leg day.
