He trains with Kbeezy so there you go.

The dude dominated the number-one contender his first time in the UFC.

didn't Conduit beat Dunham?


They didnt fight. Different weight class

Dustin us dangerous as hell at 145. He is well rounded but his real strengths are his athleticism and explosive strength. Those things are amplified when he moved down a weight class

He is not a small 155, roughly 5-7 smaller than myself and same height and very strong. I was surprised he kept his stamina like he did at 145 because he says the cut was hard

From here on that cut will be easier, and he will feel only stronger in the cage

His sub defense is as good as it gets, and that is no surprise having to fend off tim Credeur subs all day, his standup is explosive, and he is a southpaw which is another advantage by itself because we (orthodox strikers) don't see enough good southpaw strikers to spar agaisnt to become proficient enough to deal with them

And just as a side note, we (orthodox strikers I Louisiana) are really lucky because we get to spar guys like Clementi, and Poirier and boxer Rickey Kinney so we are kind of immune to that southpaw hangover

Anyway, because dustin is hard to take down, hard to sub, and so strong for his weight, he will be in every fight he takes at 145. Hd is young and still getting sharper with his striking and subs, but his kicks and punches are explosive enough to hurt anyone who is in there with him for any time, and I don't see many getting him out of there without doing it by decision; that will be tough

Zuffa, LLC ("Zuffa"), owner of the Ultimate Fighting Championship® ("UFC®") brand announced today that it filed a lawsuit against Justin.tv, Inc.

For example, on October 23, 2010, over 50,000 people watched live streaming feeds of the UFC 121 Pay-Per-View event. Indeed, third-party contractors hired and paid for by Zuffa, removed more than 200 infringing live streams of UFC 121 from the Justin.tv website.

I was thinking MacDonald

thoughts on Dustin and the Anderson Silva of 145 (Jose Aldo)? I haven't seen Dustin fight but Aldo looks almost unbeatable.
