    Looks like they've found DC an opponent.

    Wonder will it be a MW/LHW fighting for the LHW title

    Or will he be fighting someone even at HW in a non title 3 rounder


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,567 ✭✭✭✭martyos121


    Wonder is it 2 years for each violation or will he get double that for two infringements? I know that probably isn't how it works but USADA could make an example out of him.

    Hope its Gus or Portal.

    isn't he already fighting some other dude on the prelims? won't that suck for his opponent?

    The winner of LHW TUF finale to fight him the next night at 200*, what a prize that'd be!

    *May lead to decapitation.

    I think DC gets boo'd because people can see through holier than thou, whiter than white(confused.png) attitude. Yes ok DC, you're obviously perfect, never put a foot wrong and never needed a 2nd chance(which is BS btw) but if you're such a great guy why do you constantly put other people down and take the moral highground when you're already surely there? Plus, as I said earlier, he's a dcik!

    HW? What you mean he is holding up the division by taking fights at heavier weights? ARGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH the swine!

    Why are so many people on Twitter wanting Moussasi he isn't even near a MW Tittle shot he will get mauled.

    i think at this moment anyone in the top 10 who can hit weight and be ready will be an option, wouldn't be surprised if it's a catchweight (215lbs), or would that make it HW, so DC doesn't risk his belt at such short notice

    215 would just be at catchweight, I think for it to be classed as HW the weight is 220 minimum

    Itll be Cormier v Henderson all over again, it wouldn't even be close. Hopefully its Gus or at least someone who could put up a fight.

    If I remember correctly Mousasi had a decent following/hype from before he was in the UFC, the usual 'this guy not in the UFC will spark 'x UFC champ' etc.

    Also he's fit and he's a decent name. He's sellable and the UFC can put their spin on it, he's beaten the #6 LHW before, he's beaten #3 MW before, he's beaten our main event Mark Hunt before etc

    So given the (general) GOAT MMA consensus was any of Anderson Silva, GSP, Fedor or Jones (with a few other honourables in there, and I'm not a hardcore fan so might be forgetting some)... how does this effect his standing?


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 7,269 ✭✭✭Gamebred


    Moussasi would be a good story,hes a lhw strike force champ,and he has a finish over the main event hunto so they could play on that.

    Hmmm. He kinda spent the hole presser earlier saying how he has made mistakes in life and how he got second chances at things

    Really see him getting rag dolled, there's a massive difference between hunt and Cormier style wise.

    Tap to butt touch would certainly be a first.

    No...
    Anything over 205 to 265 is HW. Otherwise there'd be another class like cruiser weight or something.

    He ain't no Conor

    Hard to find a LHW who can be on weight for LHW at 2 day's notice, that's why Mousasi is being linked since he's a MW who could presumably make LHW

    A LHM at HW makes sense if it's the only way of getting a fight

    I really hope Brock tests positive in a couple of weeks, its farcical that a guy whos obviously juiced to the gills gets bumped to the main event. tho Im sure hes got his **** together and tapered off before his testing came up, he has the money to do it right. I have no problem with 'entertainers' using drugs to help them recover for their work and look the part, just like hollywood actors use the same drugs to look the part, but this man cant even fit his fists in 3xl fight gloves, add the extra power he gets from chemical enhancement and thats alot of extra brain trauma for his opponent

    hes obviously a genetic freak but theres more then genetics in that caveman body of his

    I know this isn't the case because I remember Hendo was struggling to put on weight to fight Fedor at HW. He ate a load of food before the weigh in apparently and weighed in at 206!

    He could easily of cycled off the last couple of months, knowing he's going to be tested bu USADA.

    And he could have just as easily been taking nothing. He without a doubt has been taking stuff at some stage in his life and looks absolutely massive but sure look until he pops...

    I think they're all taking something (well 90% and the same in all sports), it goes hand in hand with high level sports. But he doesn't even pass the eye test.
