Hard to bet against Johnson. It’s always 1 of two ways: He annihilates, or gasses trying. Romero is so intriguing for his ability to fight such strong contenders at his age still, but always seems to drop the ball when there’s hype behind him.
Damn, rough go of it at the UFC weigh ins today. Diego missed by 4lbs, Benoit collapsed into a chair and was over by 3 so the fight was cancelled and now so is Rothwell’s since his opponent is “ill.”
Gruesome night for Bellator! Wow. Definitely a prime example of why those are illegal in the UFC and PFL.
Augusto got a fan tonight though. What a tough fucking dude. Almost finished Rumble with one hand haha
Fire Big John. Hire Dan Hardy. Increase product by 1000. Not sure Rumble gets past Nemkov. Not sure Rumble would’ve gotten past Yoel tbh.
Would depend on which Romero showed up for sure. Nemkov is definitely the more well rounded fighter. If he’s able to tire him out/make him miss big a lot, it’s an easy win. But I don’t think anyone eats a clean landing right hand from Johnson.
I know it’s been four years but Rumble looked super stiff. Ring rust/etc but he looked a little out of it in there. I’m more surprised he managed to avoid a RNC lmao. That’s a real miracle. Nemkov/Rumble is probably the most intriguing fight in the tournament. Wish they put them on separate sides. Still think Nemkov/Anderson is where we’re headed at the end of it.
