I can't see any way Rory beats BJ. The mythological "Motivated BJ" will arise like a Phoenix from the ashes and reestablish himself as the 5th best fighter at WW.

Nate
BJ
Shogun
Chiesa
Yves
Swick

He must be taking this seriously because he looked to be 200+ this time last year.

Yeah he does look good this time at 170lb. Lean and more muscle mass. More muscle need more oxygen and his stamina and cardio have come back to haunt him of late.

I really think Rory is gonna smash BJ. He's just too big & too strong (see the Nate Diaz fight)

Wrong once again. Your mancrush in nauseating & confusing. He dropped from this card due to illness.


Chiesa was dropped? If so, that's disappointing.

Diaz gets next shot at GSP.....

quote:

Dana just said GSP told him I want Nick Diaz. Dana said that's probably the fight we'll make.


quote:

Dana said that GSP doesn't ask for much, so he feels like he has to do it. Silva and Hendricks will have to wait.

Dana hasn't told Nick yet, but he is here. ... What did I tell you, my friends?

Sweet we get to watch Diaz be destroyed by GSP then fail a drug test for weed after the fight. Lets just do Silva/GSP and move on...

I see I'm one of the few who thinks Diaz will win. Sweet.

If Benson plays it smart and leg kicks the shite out of Nate, I think he will win. I think if it goes 5, Nate will be able to win by sheer volume of strikes. Doubt the fight goes to the ground, but will be interesting if it does.

I can definitely see Benson getting picked apart by nate's boxing and take it to the ground.

I'm really stoked for the BJ/rory fight. BJ really doesn't like the kid, and I think Rory has gotten in his head a little.

Yeah, me too. I am hearing on all of the podcasts how BJ is so hungry and in great shape, but we have heard this before. Hope it is true. Rory is a beast. Gustafsson vs Shogun and Brown vs Swick should both be action packed also. There is no way this card does not deliver.

If it goes to the ground all the submissions Ben gets out of Nate won't let him.

I won't believe anyone can submit Ben Henderson until I actually see it first.

Well get ready Nate by triangle choke in the 2nd round.

All these fights are toss-ups, I could see them going a million different ways. I agree with BJ, I think he's the better, more technical fighter (same goes for Nate over Benson). But at this level, I think Rory & Benson are just too big/strong and will win simply b/c of that physical advantage.
