Essential The Official MMA Thread

MMA's 2018 is off to a strong start I see.

Damn at Whitaker being injured

Having Romero step up and fight Rockhold is a good replacement as I wanted to see that fight.

 

[curz]

Rockhold is a nightmare matchup for a guy like Yoel.
Significantly taller than him. Yoel likes to sit back out of range and pace himself. Perfect kicking range for Luke.

Luke’s better on the ground, Romero will gas trying to keep Luke on the floor.
Romero can’t even stick a good jab so Luke’s boxing weakness probably won’t get exposed.

Think this is gonna be a real bad stoppage loss for Romero

I see him Gassing

 

[curz]

I see hmi. Gassing

Romero just ain’t technical enough and he’s too old

 

[Roman Brady]

I thought that performance center was supposed to help athletes etc...

I doubt most of the fighters use it to be honest. Its just there gathering dust horrible investment

 

[The axe murderer]

this is in response to the missile warnings there

I agree but I still think Yoell is a dark horse due to the fact that he may just punch hard enough to keep Luke off him long enough. Luke's chin, or lack thereof, will always be his Achilles heel

Bisping shook.

 

[FaTaL]

Bisping shook.

He does hate vitor, I would be surprised if he ever fought him

 

[LinusCaldwell]

He does hate vitor, I would be surprised if he ever fought him

Why does he hate him? TRT? Why not put hands on a nikka you don't like?

 

[FaTaL]

Why does he hate him? TRT? Why not put hands on a nikka you don't like?

Cause he's a steroid trt user

He won't fight vitor unless he gets paid

 

[Another Man]

Cause he's a steroid trt user

He won't fight vitor unless he gets paid

Hendo used TRT also and he had no problems fighting him. Silva tested positive for a banned substance. Sounds like hes just looking for an excuse not to fight Belfort.

I thought it was common knowledge that Bisprings eye injury came from that Vitor head kick?
Maybe it’s just one of those mma myths but I thought it was a verified thing that Vitor is the one who fukked up Bisprings eye
