I dont think mccorkle is really that great to be honest. Jds is supposedly a black brlt in jiu jitsu.

Mark Hunt might take JDS' pants down in the middle of the octagon and start sucking his dick until JDS taps.

Actually that was 4 years ago. And I think McCorkle subbing him is far more damning than being subbed by Mousasi. I guess JDS could sub him, I'm sure he's plenty competent on the ground, but I doubt he's secretly some surprise ground wizard. That's just not his game.

Pretty sure hunt was subbed in a couple minutes by a middle weight not too long ago

I don't think he subs Hunt. Hunt seems to have a knack for slithering out of bad positions (obviously straight armbar to McCorkle as an exception). Plus I've never even seen JDS attempt a submission.

[edman5555]

I just watched a promo video for this and JDS was talking about how he intends to takedown Hunt. I can't wait to see the line on JDS by submission.

I agree Head isn't bad. My point is that Pyle just didn't look like his usual self in that fight. He definitely didn't look like the guy who murderlized Hathaway and put Funch in a bodybag.

Could be because Head is a good striker and he wanted to be cautious. If I remember correctly he was staggered by Head before he knocked him out. I just rewatched part of Gunnar/Santiago and I may have underestimated him. I saw him before in the third round when he was a little more tired and thats probably why he looked bad.

Grant/Maynard...I love it.

Nurmagomedov/Trujillo will be violent.

[edman5555]

He beat Brian Ebersole and tapped out Pappy Abedi pretty quick. He also managed a decision over Gerald Harris. I read that was an odd fight though because he won it by throwing strikes off his back and Harris did almost nothing from up top.

[edman5555]

I need to watch some tape on Nelson, but Pyle looked flat against James Head before the KO. Maybe he was just having an off night. . .

James Head isn't that bad.

Gunnar

What do you guys think about this one?

I have my doubts. Shit will probably go up. Wouldnt surprise me to see it at -600, like Cain

Sadly, that's probably true. I'm just hoping that the fact that this is pretty much guaranteed to be a stand up war + Hunt's KO power will drive JDS's line down. But it's probably wishful thinking.
