Stipe vs that Black guy. Who y'all got this weekend?

[Thrill_Hammer]

Stipe and Tyson or biff your mothers.

[Bruiser_Brody]

I think JBJ gets a TD and pounds him out in a very one sided bout.

[God_Of_Thunder]

I think we’ll see jones get his ass beat for the first time. Jones is coming in emotional. And the 10lb weight difference

If so, they are bad people. BAD!

I want Tyson and Bones. Does that make me just BAD with no exclamation mark?

I will have to get back to you, I don’t make the rules, but if I had to venture a guess, maybe a lower-case bad with a question mark.

It makes you something…

I don’t know what it is.. but it’s something.

And of course I want Stipe to win.

Who in their right mind wouldn’t?

I don’t get the Stipe love. He’s not the best hw of all time, he’s not a great striker, he’s not a great wrestler, he’s not a great grappler.

He’s just kind of good enough at any of those to beat someone who is bad at one or is 5 years past their prime.

He gets so much credit for beating my favorite fighters when they were over the hill that I want to see him get beat up now that he’s old.

I just can’t imagine rooting for Jones.

I don’t care who his opponent is – but this time it’s a guy in his 40s, coming off a loss and a 2 year layoff.

Just another example of Jones trying to legacy pad after he avoided moving up to HW for years.
Years when there were some serious challenges there.

Fuck all that.

He can go down as the best LHW ever.
He doesn’t belong in the HW conversation, regardless of what happens in this fight.

He could have moved up a long time ago and he didn’t.

I don’t appreciate the the blatant legacy move.

[JacobsLatter]

Jones’ body looks sloppy at weigh-ins. He looks to be in worse physical shape than myself. Probably won’t matter as his skill level is well above Stipe’s. I am rooting for Stipe. If he can reproduce the game plan of the first Ngannou fight it could be good for him.

[Johnny_Utah]

Wtf

Neither does Stipe though.

Jon’s better than him at every aspect of MMA. He deserves to win.

Stipe has an unearned legacy IMO. He doesn’t deserve to be in the HW goat talks at all, and if he loses to Jones people will stop saying he does.

It’s more a problem of Stipe’s fans than him

I don’t know that I agree with that.

Do you run into a lot of people who have Stipe as the GOAT HW?
I don’t.

I hear more people touting Cain than Stipe.

To be fair though, some of the previous era LHWs Jones beat on his initial run were on the downside themselves.

[Thebonfirexm]

Im thinking that too

[TimDuncan]

Jones has my body type. Except he is taller and blacker. Not a good look

@onepunchJD

Do you run into a lot of people who have Stipe as the GOAT HW?

I definitely do.

People like him because he’s an affable firefighter and in this post Ronda and Conner era every casual fan calls whoever is champ now the best ever.

Even now when you Google it most results say either Fedor or Stipe. That’s crazy to me, that Stipe’s even in that mix. He belongs below Randy, probably quite a bit lower.

@onepunchJD

True, but he didn’t lose. And his division was strong, even if there were vets at the top.

I think Stipe is likeable.

I also think he was a great HW.

But the GOAT conversation is another matter…

Regardless, I can’t see rooting for Jones just to spite some Stipe fans.

I’m personally sick of people calling Jones the GOAT.
Love to see him get KO’d and retire.

[havomaster]

Jon africa via tko ground and pound

[onepunchJD]

Don’t want Jones to retire undefeated.

Will never hear the end of it.

I don’t think Stipe beating Jones should make him GOAT either.
Maybe some people would think that – but probably not as many as will call Jones the goat.

Fuck all that.

Fedor is the GOAT.

[onepunchJD]

@crabScissors_CTT

Maybe I’m just old and grumpy,

I am.

I own it lol.

[onepunchJD]

@crabScissors_CTT

I’d sacrifice them both on an Aztec altar to give their life energy to Mike tonight lol

Really rooting for Mike.

Please let him hurt Paul to the body, bring his hands down, and knock him into next week.

[LostWorld]

Spinks the fuck out of him. Tyson looked good on pads recently and that slap was quick but all fingers, if he had hit with palm the fight may have been off.

[TimDuncan]

I do. I dont lift anymore because of my bad knees. Im still ok with the takedown defense against most people that arent college wrestlers
