A few months ago I thought Ngannou was another UFC hype machine creation, but seeing him detach Reem's soul from his body made me a believer. Stipe has the experience edge and has shown he has a great gas tank for a Heavyweight, but all that goes out the window if Ngannou lands one clean right hand on his jaw.

I haven't been this excited for a title fight in a long time

gotta go with the defending champ.

I'm rooting for my boy Ngannou but I wouldn't be mad if Miocic wins, I love seeing Dana's hype trains derailed.

 

[Primetime]

If he retains, what does Cormier do next?

He'd be 38 in a division he's cleaned out aside from that one guy who is a fukk up.

Fight Gus again? Retire?

Cormier got this. Dude will find a way to retain.

It never ceases to amaze me how ppl can get so swept up with KOs. I like ngannou (only cuz hes an african) but hes writing cheques with his mouth his azz cant cash. Here is a guy that was dominanted on the floor by henrique and the likes of curtis blaydes. Stipe is very hittable but all signs point to someone being taken to school

He doesnt need to "find a way" ozo is basically AJ but with less fights and no wrestling..

I mean on the context of unpredictability. I somewhat see a upset, but doubtful since this is DC we talking about.

Wouldnt mind it to be honest the division kind of has that feeling of remaining on the premises hours after the school bell has rung. As a competitor what is he really hanging around for? He looks silly talking like hes king lear when not only is the division at its most worse but we already saw who his master was twice..

Exactly. On the real, this card is kinda meh. If DC loses the belt, it would bring some light to these sad state of affairs. Hell, I find myself watching the undercard and midcard just for whatever vs trying to even care for the title picture right now.

Lots of fighting Saturday.

Chandler/Yamauchi, Rory/Lima, Peterson/Spence, probably all before DC/Volkan. If you don't like the undercard, there's lots of options

No doubt I'm watching Bellator and catching some UFC, it's just more of the simple because of the card. I'm watching the fights regardless since I'm trying to play catch up with what I missed MMA wise. The last fight I seen was DC/Bones which had me like .............................................
