UFC on Versus 5

[Vandelay]

I wouldnt say bendos stand up is good. He got outclassed horribly against varner. Hes got good kicks, below average hands, good power, and a good chin. It's his threat of a takedown that makes his standup effective.

Stop copying me.

Haha...

I think Pettis/Henderson was one of the most epic fights I have ever seen.

"Outclassed horribly"? C'mon. That's hyperbole at its finest. Yes, he was losing in the stand-up department. But Varner's stand-up is actually pretty good. His grappling game just isn't all that.

So what do you think of Bocek's stand-up skills? You must think they're like old-school Maia level.

It was possibly one of the ten greatest fights in the history of MMA.

[Vandelay]

I remember thinking that Bendo had shields level standup. Eventually he just gave up punching altogether and started desperately shooting takedowns. Varner is a stupid motherfucker sometimes. Bocek's standup is pretty bad too.

[poopoo333]

I loved the fight. Last fight ever in the WEC, for the championship, tied going into round 5, close up until the last minute THEN BOOM THE PETTIS KICK!

I was also excited as fuck because I had money on Pettis so it made it even better.

Let me ask you this: What do you think of Clay Guida's stand-up?

100% Agree

I not only had money on Pettis, but I made a very rare ~2.5u bet on an underdog. That's easily the biggest I've ever gone on a dog.

[Vandelay]

Worse than bendo, better than bocek. Probably like a C- or D+. Definitely not good

[SPX]

You expect too much.

[Vandelay]

Same guy that got lit up by diego sanchez and Dos Anjos right? I don't think any1 thinks Clay Guida = above average standup.

[poopoo333]

Clay Guida's striking sucks.

[SPX]

Guida's striking isn't great, but D+ is a little harsh.

And I'd give Bendo's striking a solid B. And a B is a good grade. Who gets disappointed by a B?

[Vandelay]

Bendo gets a C. C plus at best.

[SPX]

Your mom gets an A.

At least she did last night.

[poopoo333]

inb4SPXasks"tell me who you think has A level striking?B level striking?"

[Vandelay]

And SPX retorts with something completely unrelated because he knows hes wrong.

There really aren't a lot of great strikers are lightweight.

A level might be Pettis, Guillard, Barboza. . .

B level is a whole bunch of motherfuckers, including Bendo.

Guida might be C level.

If you're below that then you're in King of the Cage or some other org. You're not in the UFC.
