dayum what a TD, he ragdolled him

 

[jackswstd]

Impressive performance by DC so far

 

[TrueEpic08]

Damn, just how strong is Cormier?

More important question: Is DC really that good, or is this just a massive style mismatch?

DC seems to improve with each fight.

If he wins I need to see him against an Elite striker next that's my only concern. Josh ain't know for his striking.

DC is very strong, this is a style mismatch though, he would be in trouble against JDS.

Yeah. I'm not sure why, but when I was watching this, I just said to myself, "If the best Heavyweights of the UFC can't beat him, then they really aren't THAT good."

Hopefully, win or lose (unlikely), we'll see.

This has been one of the best MMA shows of this year.

 

[jackswstd]

DC gassed at the end but great performance nonetheless. Probably needs to work a bit more on his striking and subs, but I think he's a contender.

 

[TheNatureBoy]

AKA with 2 of the best HW's in the game.

 

[firemanBk]

DC dominated that fight

 

[The Push Man]

Good show all round.

it was, and to be honest i really wasn't expecting it. but at the same time strikeforce always seem to have good cards, to bad there getting the step-child treatment from zuffa.

im just curious who's next for cormier, could they bring in someone like arlovski, or a sylvia.

Problem being both of those would be a step down from his last 2 wins, AA gets slept with his chin and Sylvia hasn't looked good in forever. Wish he could just hop over to the UFC.
