UFC on Versus 4

So who wins? I say Rick Story.

[MMA_scientist]

Yeah, I got Story in that one. Marquart has shown he has trouble with the top control and it will be hist first cut to 170 (which is sort of ridiculous IMO, he was one of the biggest 185ers). I fully expect him to look like shit since he will be off the roids most likely.

pb has some serious leg kicks. Beltran was having success putting him up against the cage though. I could see Kongo doing that as well. Tough one to call though, if Pat can resist Kongos wrestling well enough he def has a chance of outstriking him.

[SPX]

I think Story definitely has a good chance. If his line is around +140 like Johnson's was I'll be on him.

I have a feeling Marquardt's going to end up regretting this welterweight shit.

I could see Story getting caught in a guillotine. But yeah the roids + cut is a good point.

I think Marquardt has been off for awhile. He said in his past couple camps he doesn't struggle to make weight, that's why he considered (and went through) with a fight @ WW.

You really think Story will be the dog after beating Alves?

Stranger things have happened. He definitely doesn't have the name recognition of Marquardt.

But I just said "if."

Well what do you think the line will be?

[SPX]

No idea. Maybe even.

Remember that Marquardt has beaten the Alves's of the MW division in guys like Palhares and Maia.

[poopoo333]

I'll go out on the limb and say Marquardt -130 Story EV

Nope

[SPX]

Nope what?

You're saying that Maia, a former title challenger, doesn't inhabit a role in MW that is generally equivalent to Alves's role?
