FFS went exactly as I thought with the weight difference and he gets a sub....

Cormier could have finished this in the 2nd round the same way. Hendo obviously tough, but he should hang it up, though I understand if he's in it for the paychecks.

Let's go Cormier/Jones, Cormier has a really good chance to beat him and I think he will.

seems like Cormier has to overpower and take him down

If he beat Jones I don't think it would be a dominant performance at all, more like just stronger/better wrestler

Jones is pretty good on his back too

Going to be some cool gifs from that fight. Would prefer to watch Cormier fight jones than Gus. Hopefully there will be an injury.

I guess that is true but isn't he known for having a strong BJJ base? Just his length/dexterity alone would probably keep Cormier from punishing him a lot on the ground (similar to Chael/Anderson)

I'm intrigued to see how Jones would stay off his back vs such a beast wrestler though

He was there briefly against Gustaffson I think, but didn't see anything of importance. The key point I think Cormier will have is his pressing and cardio, what happens if Jones can't stop Cormiers wrestling and he simply just wears and tears down Jones, either against the cage or the mat.

If Barnett, Mir at their weights couldn't stop it, Jones doing so seems like a tall task.

How did Big Country do against it? didn't see that fight

has anyone come close to stopping it?

Lol joe said it twice now, and Dana was saying it.... Barao is NOT on a 35 fight unbeaten streak..... He hasn't even had 35 fights!!!! Not sure why, but it irritates the hell out of me.

Will Cormier fight Jones next?

Considering Jones/Gustaffson 2 isn't even made yet, seems like he will have to take another fight at 205 in the meantime. As he probably should since he has 2 wins that have nothing to do with getting a title shot.

Wish I had more on Dillashaw, he does not look like a +600 underdog at all. Barao looks so frustrated, so much for dana white P4P best fighter...

I'm rooting so hard now for you guys that got it at +600 area (and me now)

TJ just needs 1 more round. keep going to the body.

Agree on what? I thought from the beginning Dillashaw had a good shot, and that Barao isn't all that, that some are making him out to be like the P4P best.
