I've got this theory that Stann's analytical nature, fighting smarts, and the pace at which he's learning...at some time very soon...is going to make up for the lack of ground skills and experience. I'm praying that time will come tonight.

I'm with you on the other picks though.

 

Btw...I don't want no girlie screams, no hugs, and no freakin' pansy-ass Victor Ortiz kisses on the cheek...so without further ado...I give you...


Shhh.....

Crap, Stann's not doing well. Rd 1 sucked for him. This not looking good at all.

 

What is this WWE stuff Sonnen pulled?

What do you guys think of the somewhat revolutionary idea of not cutting weight, or not cutting much weight for a fight? I know the idea isn't new, but it often isn't used with many of the top fighters in a division cutting down from a much larger weight, look at St. Pierre who isn't ever fat and walks around at 190, 195ish dropping down to 170.

Maynard probably walks around at an in shape 175. He's very big for his weight class, but strangely Edgar is fighting at close to his natural weight (see pic below, I posted this before but I weigh 160ish and have some height on him) and able to not only handle himself but be the best in the world. Do you think he's a freak, or do you think he simply has the stamina and recovery ability BECAUSE he isn't wrecking himself dieting for months and dehydrating for a week prior to a fight?

Meaning, should we see more people take a crack at this method? Do you think we will?
