UFC 131 JDS vs Carwin

[SPX]

Frankly, I think I'm just going to stay away from trying to bet on JDS's fights for a while. Also, as zY said, it's going to be very hard to tell how much the injury affected Cain.

Why do you keep betting against him?

[zY|]

Carwin = ALL fucked up

Why do you keep betting against him?

For reasons that always sound good at the time... It's a similar story for anyone climbing the ladder. You can always tell yourself, "But this guy is tougher than anyone they've ever faced". Even now, as impressed as I was by his performance, I would still be tempted to bet against him vs. Cain or maybe even Overeem.

I hear you. I understand that reasoning. Guess I've just always believed in JDS. I think Cain or Overeem really WOULD be a new level of comp.

I think those 3 are the best HWs in the world. Cain and JDS for sure, Overeem has the skills to be but he hasn't really beaten anyone yet. There's a big gap once you get past them though.

I'm curious to see how Overeem will do against Werdum.

As for Cain/JDS, I am wondering how JDS will react to the constant pressure Cain will probably bring. Carwin basically shot, and once JDS was able to get back up (he might have been able to get back up easier since Carwin was beat the fuck up/tired). If JDS gets back up from Cain, Cain will keep throwing strikes and keep going for the takedown. I think the constant pressure might tire JDS out and reduce the effectiveness of his striking. I don't want to see either guy lose, I am fans of both.

But with what ZY said about Cain not being able to punch yet in training...that's crazy.

Me too. I can't wait for that fight.

[Mr. IWS]

I think when he gases Beltran is going to finish him.

Good call

If the UFC had a hard core belt like the WWF had, Beltran would be the champ.

And where was poopoo? Zak? MMAscientist?

I was at my daughters track meet. Philly area Jr. Olympics. I counted 6 white kids, 2 of them were sprinters.

I was fuckin dead tired when I got home, I was there from 7am to 5pm, and they were still doing events when I left.

We forgot to find the unanimous IWS picks.

[Thewisemann]

JDS over Cain.
i lost .02u, the Maia live betting hurt me, but Weidman sub of the night saved me.

[SPX]

We forgot to find the unanimous IWS picks.

I don't think we even did it this time.

Scientist=fail

Still patiently waiting for Scientist end of event summary
