You guys should be happy, you got the exact fight some of you guys wanted. Anthony Johnson vs Phil Davis @UFC 172 in Balt. He got a fight against the worst stand up striker in top 10 at 205, so If Johnson can't knock em around then there's no excuse for em.
the problem with davis is hes a moving target.The guy cant ko or inflict any sort of offensive damage to save his life but hes mobile and can impress the judges with his low impact taps

Who also happens to be one of the best/strongest grapplers in the 205 division.

Rumble at HW might be something interesting. HW is still pretty light. He has a shot at top5 there. Cain still runs that shyt though but Rumble can definitely be Top10 at least.

Ummmm.. on second thought, let me check his height in comparison to the other 6'3"-6'5" monsters in the top10

yeah for a dude with a wrestling base he has got pretty shytty TDD and is almost like a fish out of water on his back.


ps There is like 5 blax in the ufc LHW top ten (now aj has signed) and you got 2 sets of fights that pits one against another :beli:
No damn way is AJ top 10.

This picture is absolutely disgusting for many reasons. Its crazy how Mccain tried his hardest to shut MMA down in the 90s but hes posing with a champion. But its possible that Mccain is beyond senile at this point and thinks Jones is some new congressional page :lolbron:
It's from a meeting on improving brain studies. UFC, Bellator and boxing promoters working with Harry Reid and others on it.

Thats the exact problem, Johnson cnt KO sum1 unless they are just sitting and waiting for the shot. While Davis will just run away and then try to grapple on the fence and turn this into a snooze fest. I'll use this fight as a washroom n beer break.
