He might be more exciting but what about the culture

Happy Holloway finally has a fight the way he was begging for aldo made him come off like a lady of the night..206 is a 2 fight card I guess

Nah, Doo Ho Choi on the 206 card and after what Lando Vannata showed against Tony Ferguson on short notice I'm looking forward to seeing him fight again as well.

Take that breh

 

[The G.O.D II]

I'm conflicted on Holloway/Pettis. He's earned enough wins to sit for a title shot but sitting doesn't pay bills. Plus pettis is a favorable matchup for him

i think pettis is done at competing at the eilte level, could be wrong though but if he gets this to the ground shyt he got this.

im mixed about this, cause pettis ain't look that great against oliveria, but he's still a talented motherfukka who, IF he gets in his bag shyt might get real for holloway.

If Pettis loses he gate status official

It's crazy how Pettis at one point looked pretty much unbeatable, running through Cerrone, Bendo and Gil.

I don't think Holloway will grapple with him like Oliveria. Do bronx has rudimentary striking and non existent defense but was still getting off on Pettis. Holloway will pick him apart ala Barboza.

 

[jackswstd]

I favor Max in this fight with Pettis, Showtime reminds a lot of BJ Penn. When they can control the pace of the fight they look unbeatable, but when they can't they fold.

it's fukked up and i don't understand the hate, when i look at woodley objectively. i hope he puts wonderboy to sleep and gets the diaz fight next just to piss people off more.



if cruz wins this fight handily and mighty mouse dispose of whoever the TUF winner is, both of them need to be pressured into fighting each other. i honestly don't care to see cruz fight anyone else if he beats garbrandt (including dillishaw).

They fought in the WEC, Cruz won easily. I'd be more interested in Cruz going up to 145.

 

[curz]

People need to leave mighty mouse and his midget division alone. No matter how skilled he is, he's too fukking small.

Now if TJ would drop down, him vs DJ would be liiiiiiit
