why did nelson die his hair and forget to dye his beard as well?

Cormier looks like a big ass Donald Faison

I just want to see the high level wrestling between a Jones/DC bout but otherwise I have no desire to see Cormier fight. Hes look very lackluster his last three fights and fans are not on his side

Diego vs Melendez was FOTN but there were better fights this year. Don't give Cormier shot outright since Bones is fighting Glover and if Gus doesn't wait and fights Phil, make Cormier vs the winner of Sonnen vs Evans.

lol true enough. i find most most wrestlers boring too. DC is a very high calibre wrestler though and can appreciate his greatness.

Yeah, his wrestling games is impressive especially the fluidity of his transitions. The main problem I have with dude is he has no killer instinct. His strikes seem to only be for setting up his wrestling. Roy sensed this too and kept putting his hands down.

I wouldn't go as far as to call him a point fighter, but damn. most wrasslers use the skill to get a dominant position to finish their opponent via sub or TKO, but dude's game seems based on wrestling dudes to exhaustion then coasting to a W.

I appreciate his mastery of wrassling but still tonight was another addition to a collection of :zzz: UFC Cormier fights

Junior has always gassed in his fights. He gassed against Roy and Carwin which is why he didn't finish either guy and was dead tired against Hunt which fortunately for him Hunt was gassed as well.
