How can you hate cains style constant pressure, crisp boxing and easily the best wrestling in the hw division, the unfortunate part is he is so much better than the rest of the HW the only real way to win is if he gets caught. hes not better in the way that the other champions are better than the rest because those divisions are stacked enough any man can win. His skill is on another level almost like they havnt evolved in ten years while hes steaming along moving forward.
Jds being the exception.

Absolutely disagree. Hendricks clearly won that fight. Going to the decision I KNEW he had it in the bag, I was tripping because of GSP's reign and record. Finally, I thought, this dude just beat GSP!! It was a dominant performance. There was no question in my mind who won that fight at the end, especially after hearing the post fight opinions, even Dana White said Hendricks won..


So do any of you train MMA? I was watching a clip earlier that had the strikes slowed down like crazy, phantom cam shit, and I was wondering, does a fighter have control over the distance of a strike, as in, during the full duration it's in motion, from initial pivot and launch to connection? If I'm the fighter, do I have the ability to throw the strike higher or lower during the strike (thousands of a second), or once I decide to throw it, is the direction/force pretty much set it stone?

From reviewing the phantom cam, it looks like it's pretty much set in stone, with maybe a millimeter or two of a margin of error. I'm interested in knowing if there's any science behind that..

Knowing that, it only makes the appreciation of the sport that much better, these guys are reacting to movements as fast as NHL goalies, ridiculous!

.... or an f1 driver if your mighty mouse, fucking dude can wait for you to throw, clock you clean on the jaw, follow you as you fall and pounce before your back actually hits the mat.

Mighty Mouse fucked shit up! That was a nice KO

I'm pumped for Saturdays fights! Browne v. Barnett is going to be fireworks, I'm dying to see if Weidman can defend the belt and see how Silva comes off such a crazy loss in his career. I feel like either outcome the fans win. Rousey is going to get her, what is it 8? 8th straight armbar, no doubt

Also, what do you think it might mean if Rousey gets another first round armbar? Everyone knows it's coming. I don't see how fighters can't defend against that? How is she so successful at executing it during fights, even when her opponent knows its coming?

I think if Cyborg could make 135lbs she'd dominate Rousey, but she can't. Is the division just too scarce? Like the HW division? No real talent so the champ just stays champ til someone comes along or age gets the best of em?


New top 15 ranks instead of just top 10, thoughts? I think they should rank every fighter in the division, why not?

Weidman has foght str8 nobodys except for his last 3 wins... his biggest win being the fluke knockout of spider silva... he couldn't finish damian miah.... he did finish mark munoz who has way better wresting credentials on paper... but has had problems transitioning his wrestling into mma....

my picks.... silva via tko.... rousey via armbar ..... the warmaster by boring u.d. from cage fucking and ground fucking {though barnet has had issues with strikers} as for miller and comoes that's a toss up.... miller is more well rounded with a slight advantage on the feet... id give camoes a slight advantage on the ground... miller is a beast on the ground to...

I want Tate to win sooo bad.... but alas, Rousey will probably do what she does best.

Can't deny she is one bad bitch.
