I don't know much about Andy Ogle. I see he beat Josh Grispi. I kinda wonder what Conors grappling is like. He could have trouble with a strong grappler. I don't really know how strong of a grappler Ogle is.

Interestine line on Shogun and Chael. I personally favor Chael. I thought he would be the dog though.

[Svino]

I love Sonnen at that line. I thought he'd be -200 at the least.

I feel like Shoguns wrestling is kinda weak. That said he hits like a ton of bricks and with accuracy. Chael is pretty tough though. I'm not sure how the submission game will work out either. Shogun doesn't have a lot of sub wins but I still feel like he has some game on the ground. It's a main event too so it will be five rounds. Frankly I don't see Chael stopping him so we're probably looking at Chael having to outwrestle him for 25 minutes. Ample opportunity for Shogun to stop him.

Ogle is a striker. Grispi really hit a cieling and fell from grace like a rock out of the sky. I think McGregor outstrikes Ogle with those crazy angles and speed of his because while Ogle is tough he's nothing special.

[edman5555]

Ogle really isn't a grappler period?

Ogle really isn't a grappler period?

When he was fighting to get into the TUF house he got stuck in a triangle choke for about 4 straight minutes. He wasn't necessarily in danger from it but he couldn't get the hell out of it either. At least I'm pretty sure that was him. Grispi just hasn't ever really recovered from the loss to Dustin Poirier. I think something happened to Grispi that was more to do with his drive and determination to compete in the sport than anything else. He only fought 8 times in the last 5 and a half years. Ogle is a pretty big featherweight, and Grispi had nothing for him standing. Ogle found his way on top in alot of grappling scrambles which led to alot of success. I wouldn't say Ogle has no ground game, but he is british, so wrestling isn't exactly his thing.

[edman5555]

Well if he really cant wrestle for shit he should be fucked against McGregor.

[Vandelay]

Since I unearthed McGregor to you fools, let me break it down once again. This guys striking is second to none. He will not get outstruck by Andy Ogle. His Tdd is above average but what he does well with regards to wrestling is getting back to his feet. He is very similar to Bisping in this regard in that he does an excellent job of scrambling to cage and scooting up from there.
