You do realize that despite his supposed weakness to wrestlers Anderson has stuffed the majority of takedowns he has faced against Chael and Hendo. Despite his 4.5 rounds of dominance, Chael only...

He lost round three to Bonnar and even if you don't give Machida round one against him, he was stunned against Rashad and almost subbed by Vitor. Like I said, I am a huge fan of Jones but as...
It is funny how you forget to mention you were the main one beating the drum on don't count out Hammil because of his wrestling background. I think you were writing for someone at the time and you...
If Memphis had two more solid three-point shooters, they would be my pick to win it all. If Tony Allen would just concentrate on making corner threes consistently that team could be unstoppable. I...
I have more problems with Chael coming in WAY over the limit on his TRT for a title fight then trying to lie his way out of it; insulting a man's country, heritage, and family; and then after getting...
I am not saying Weidman doesn't have a shot. He does because of his size, wrestling, and submission skills. However, acting like he is the equivalent of Anderson when he came into the UFC is just...
I am sorry but in the fight world we have seen people shove, spit, threaten to eat children, attack non-fighters, threaten death, and insult people's families, culture, and ethnicity. If Anderson...
I didn't know Anderson would go undefeated for 7+ years, but I knew he was going to destroy Leben and thought it was hilarious when Chris acted like Anderson was the one taking a step up in...
The only reason I am worried about this fight is everything seems to be lining up for a Superfight in the fall. Many times when that happens for the UFC something else out of the blue comes up and...
Maybe you misunderstand what I am getting at. What I am saying is if any of those guys at the time they fought Jones or Henderson with a season of TUF would draw the same numbers as Sonnen did or...
You don't think any of those fights other than maybe a Machida rematch would do the same numbers as Chael with a TUF season of build up? Then add in the whole made up controversy if Jones was...
That is the fight I was talking about. It was only 3 and 1/2 to 4 weeks’ notice. Chael didn't agree to take that fight, but Jones said he would have fought Chael then. My understanding isn't they...
The only time anyone turned down the Jones fight is taking it on 2 weeks’ notice to save the card. This idea that no one else would have taken a coaching gig on TUF and fought Jones is just...
I'll give credit where credit is due. I could also have said that over 99% of the sports writers disagree with your assessment, but that would not have been the nice thing to point out :)
What is funny is LeBron received 120 of the 121 votes for first place, and the one vote he didn't get was a Boston sports writer that picked Melo using this exact same argument. I guess I should...
I honestly think the Ghost was one of the best possible opponents out of those that were available. He is young, in his prime, and has won some big fights at that weight. With all of that said,...
If that was the case LeBron should have won it every year he played for the Cavs. The Warriors don't make the Playoffs without Steph Curry, should he be the MVP? Even going by that standard Chris...
Despite being very tall, the Mauler's reach is not that great. It is only around 77 inches according to Wikipedia, I know that is not the most accurate source, which is the same as Anderson Silva. ...
Covering up and turtling is not an intelligent defense. If Chael was moving or trying to advance position maybe I think it was an early stoppage. None of that happened. The stoppage was fine.
Maybe or maybe not. What I am saying is Jones will not have to get into the clinch unless he wants to. If Jones was a less intelligent fighter or worked with a different camp other than Jackson's...
Because as we just saw it is much easier to talk yourself into a title or high level fight than it is to go out and earn it.
Yes he did, but my point is that isn't his only way of winning his fights. With his speed and length he is going to be running circles around 99% of the HW division. Unless he fights some guys with...
Jones is going to kill these guys with speed. Cain pushes the pace and outworks guys. Jones is going to circle throw leg kicks and pot shot guys to death. I just don't see how anyone at that...
Hakeem started late, but not as late as Ibaka. Developing a high level post game this late in his development, while not impossible, would be very surprising. Hakeem got a late start, but was...
Ibaka is one of the most intriguing players in the league. If he ever developed a low post game it would become apparent why OKC basically picked him over Harden. The problem is he has never...
