UFC 146

Oh and another thing. There is no record anywhere of JDS kickboxing. I don't know where this is coming from. It might be bullshit. Has anyone even see him throw a kick?

[edman5555]

He started MMA in 2006 and is now 27 years old. This would mean he had amassed 18 kickboxing fights and the championship belt by the age of 21. I wonder if that is all bullshit.

[edman5555]

There is literally no record anywhere I can find says who Junior beat in kickboxing.

[edman5555]

"I already posted many times on this site that cigano N E V E R participated / won kickboxing tournaments. That's a myth. It was spread just before he fought Werdum.

I simply don't know why people still use wikipedia as their only source...

He started training BJJ 5 years ago, one year later he started boxing and MMA. That's it. Ask any brazilian"

[edman5555]

Overeem by murder.

Old JDS fight video from Brazil. They introduce him as a boxer and BJJ fighter.

BOL. Overeem by murder. . .

That's an interesting point about the kickboxing bouts--though I question the credibility of whoever you were quoting earlier--but if you don't think JDS is a bad ass then you should re-watch his fights.

[edman5555]

I am watching an interview with Dos santos. He states he started boxing in about 2006. I doubt he was boxing pro an fighting mma pro. Could have been...I am guessing not. There is no evidence of him kickboxing.

He is a badass but I am not convinced his striking is on the level or Overeems.

It will either be JDS by murder or Ubereem by murder. No back and forth "war" here.

[edman5555]

True. I just think Overeem has the advantage.

[poopoo333]

It's an interesting fight and hard to call imo. I can even see NCAA JDS showing up at times, he took both Big Country and Shane Carwin down.

I would actually argue that it may not matter. This is MMA and that changes things.

Yeah, I think that's possible.

Massive edman... Peter Aerts is indeed a legend, but the fact is this guy was 39 and 40 years old when Overeem fought him in the grand prix fights.

This is the actual 2009 fight if you haven't seen it. Overeem is mostly headhunting or throwing a single kick. Hardly any combos, alot of bullying with size. This shit isn't going to fly with JDS.
