I've always been a Faber fan, but I think Barao is in another class. However, he does have a tendency to drop his hands and Faber definitely can go the distance and keep the pressure on. His wrestling has improved with Ludwig on board. Just think barao is too fast to get in trouble, unless he gets caught with those hands down. gonna be a great fight. enjoy.
Weidman is definitely still getting better! The striking is greatly improving, and the jitz is as well. He will be a Serra BJJ Black belt before all said and done.
He is however getting respect. The early line has him at a -245 favorite against Belfort. I love Weidman in this fight and see Belfort's only chance is a KO punch out of nowhere, which is a possibility as Belfort may be old, but he is still rather quick and powerful. War Weidman!
I didn't think so. I think it shows alot that the fight made it the distance for him. It was a disappointment for Overeem not to finish I'm sure, but the game plan was to pace himself and not get work out and caught like in the Browne fight. Either way, Mir is done, and Reem will probably get a no deserving huge payday against Lesner.
