Why? He has everything to gain and nothing to lose. Cormier is the one to respect for taking this fight. Nobody cares if Cormier wins, if Cormier loses it taints the belt.Much hespect to A. Silva for taking a very, very tough fight on short notice.
Disagree 100%. It is a show fight that has about the same amount of impact on the UFC that the Lesnar fight does. Cormier has earned his place, earned his respect. Jon Jones is the only question on the Cormier resume, and I think everyone is about ready to see Jon go away for good at this point.Why? He has everything to gain and nothing to lose. Cormier is the one to respect for taking this fight. Nobody cares if Cormier wins, if Cormier loses it taints the belt.
No he hasn't. He was fast tracked to a LHW title shot which he lost badly, submitted Johnson for the vacated title, and then won a split decision over Gustaffson. He hasn't earned shit.Cormier has earned his place, earned his respect.
It comes to a point where a fuck up will always be a fuck up. Two-year ban(which is what he's looking at now) and he's going to keep out of trouble during that entire period? lol Not happening.I'm not. Other then him fucking up cards, the only thing that is stopping him is testing positive.
No fighter has stopped him. His only loss was to a DQ for elbows.
You have to be a crybaby faggot not to want to see Jones clean it up, and fight again even despite this. He's still in his 20's....
I thought it was promoted to co-main? Is Lesnar/Hunt not the last fight?In other news, competitive eater Johnny Hendricks missed weight again and Tate v Nunes is now the main event since neither of the other two fights is 5 rounds.
I doubt we see him at 170 again. Dude loses 20% of his purse as wellIn other news, competitive eater Johnny Hendricks missed weight again and Tate v Nunes is now the main event since neither of the other two fights is 5 rounds.
Ya, Silva and Jones are now both confirmed PED users. GSP is in a class of his own. Also look at hendricks since testing came in!No he hasn't. He was fast tracked to a LHW title shot which he lost badly, submitted Johnson for the vacated title, and then won a split decision over Gustaffson. He hasn't earned shit.
Jones beat the actual champ then defended the title 8 times. He may be a fuck up and a moron outside of the cage, but he's arguably the greatest LHW to ever fight in the sport. The only people with longer title reigns are Anderson Silva (10 defenses) and GSP (9 defenses).
