A thousand times this, opinions on if they nail weird nipples like Dillashaw and pimples on his back and chest at almost 30 Usman before he retires?

It really doesn't matter either tbh. If they pop they get a suspension that coincides with the time they will take off anyway.

I mean Nate Diaz layed it out, they're micro dosing. Its been around since the 90s...maybe even earlier im not sure...But guys like... Costa, Usman, dillashaw..Rashad....vitor...even Chael.....wasnt hard to tell, Shoot I met Vitor....The dude was literally chisseled like a god...and was throwing down shit food and beers like it was NOTHING...all night long in the vip section at this club...I been working out a long time... And between the lifting n cardio it takes to stay that big and keep that low body fat....While going out drinking and eating wings, fries and pizza....Its like... I get it.. they're better specimans as athletes than i ever was... but... the recovery time alone would mean...absolutely NONE of that shit on the weekend. And even then I think top tier athletes would struggle.

Unless your Jones. Coke and alcohol seems to help his performance lol.

I think Reyes kos him tbh. Reach and height advantage. Reyes has power as well. Costa would have trouble closing the distance.

Damn, you're probably right. I thought Costa had way more reach than he does. He seems really long in middleweight, but I think he appears that way because he's just good at cutting off and fencing in lateral movement. His strikes are all hooking and extended until he has them trapped in a little box.

The one thing that I admire about Costa is how well he mixes up head and body shots. His body shots are fucking viscous.

I mean all joking aside, hes the goat..... he just... got rich. lol... I cant say I wouldn't cut loose either....If he had just.... breathed mma instead of doing coke and kicking the shit out of DC a week later... insane athleticism in his family for real... But Im not guna lie, I really like Jan as champ.. Humble... insane power.... oddly fast for his size.. good ground game....

Im rooting for Colby, wasnt a huge fan, till he came out to kurt angles music... really embracing what it took to keep him in the ufc. Usman def has some power tho.... I hope colby brings it to the ground, though i realize Usman is a d2 champ himself. But colby is quite decorated division 1 wrestler ... and the first time I saw him without his act going on.,. he was humble.. was letting people wear his belt and take pictures, was talking about working hard even on the weekends when everyone else was going out n shit.... and the kid says man, you're so humble...and shit when you're not on the mic.. and hes like.. thats not what sells


also when he was at ATT....see what he was doing to masvidal on the ground? good lord, ....either way its going to be a good fight....the way i see it ...Only usman can beat colby and only colby can beat usman...and that about sums up that division... reminds me on dc/jones in LHW.

anyways, check the footage, lol Jorge looks devastated



But yeah you 100% right about popping and getting that break :P

Not a fan of Usman or Colby. I wouldn't mind if the octagon exploded during that fight. Lol. But it will be a banger. Thats for sure.

I agree. I feel like all he needs is a couple of wins at 205 and he'll be fighting for a championship. Light heavyweight is aging and aside from Jiri and Jan, I don't really see anyone giving him a lot of trouble. His conditioning was decent against Vettori. He seems more reserved these days. I could see his cardio actually being an advantage if he steps up a

Jiri is most likely next up. Im having problems with Costa at LHW. I mean he barely draw against a middleweight on a skid. I think costas problem is the same problem as Jones. Unprofessional. All the talent and skills in the world no drive. How do you come in 40lbs over? I would love to see him takenthe Anthony Johnson route. Get cut/fight out contract and go win 2 or 3 pfl tourneys, then come back on redemtion tour

Honestly I think he saw Nick Diaz do the same thing a month earlier and thought it was a brilliant idea. I think a big part of his problem is everything has always come super easy to him, so the need for motivation is foreign.

You all are probably right. It was late last night and I wasn't thinking clearly. LHW is looking pretty weak right now, but Costa isn't as big as I thought. HIs stalking style isn't really meant for bigger opponents. He can cutoff a smaller dude and then knock him out, but I don't know if he has to power to keep a heavier fighter contained let alone KO them. Plus his chin won't have the advantage of extra weight either. Izzy dropped him, but Izzy's power had no effect on Jan. I feel like Costa might be in the same boat. He hits harder than Adesanya, but without the setups it won't matter. Jan, along with the most of the division will see everything coming and eat all of his strikes.

Yan is the man

Extremely happy for Glover

Khazmat is just a beast. Given up 2 strikes since he has gotten into the UFC. 4 fights..... been hit 2xs.... crazy.

Islam will be 155 champ soon. Very soon.

Great day of fights. Now gonna watch Cage warriors. Lol

Pretty sure Islam is going to get Chandler no matter what happens next weekend. Not sure how it could go any other way. If Gatche wins he gets the title shot. Only other possibility is Holloway moves up and smashes Islam in a main event in February.
