Re: UFC 127

Bader will get beat. He won't be taking down Jones and his stand up isn't all that great. I bet Jones has 10" of reach on him.

I can't think of a single thing that Bader is better than Jones at. I really hope this line opens at a decent price.

Re: UFC 127

I would say Bader is bigger, stronger, and tougher than anyone Jones has faced. Possibly the best wrestler too. He's got the skills and athleticism to win handily though. They're both prone to getting tired so it could get kinda ugly if Jones doesn't get him out of there quick.

Re: UFC 127

I think Jones will push his shit in, but at the same time, I wouldnt be suprised if Bader won a Lay n Pray special here. Seems to be the norm nowadays.

Re: UFC 127

You know, I take it back: I can think of one thing that Bader seems to have that Jones doesn't -- punching power. We haven't seem Jones straight floor somebody with a punch yet.

Re: UFC 127

WE haven't seen much of his standup at all except for spinning back elbows.

I think it seems that way because his wrestling is so impressive, but if you go back and watch he really throws a lot of strikes.

Yeah but from what I recall he doesn't have any boxing to speak of. He has an ungodly reach yet he doesn't even try to utilize a jab, and most of his strikes seems to be to set up the one big flashy shot. Fundamentals, please.

At this point, I just say hey, whatever works for him. . .

Yeah, I've also noticed that he really likes to circle into his opponent's power hand. Still, I'm not sure if anyone will be able to keep their feet against him, other than a few wrestling elite like Phil Davis or King Mo, and those guys don't have great striking either.
