I have Miocic by TKO, don't see Struve's chin holding up in this fight. With a win, I think Miocic should get a top 10 HW.

This card has some really interesting match-ups (Mills/Ludwig, Struve/Miocic, Pickett/Jabioun, etc.). Plus, we have the debut of the touted Gunnar Nelson.

Huge fan of Machida, but not a fan of him calling out GSP. Having said that, Machida would soundly win.

Damn, the only familiar name on the main card for me is Marius Zaromskis. Ask him:

1) Why doesn't he fight at LW? He's a small WW, so the cut shouldn't be too bad.

2) If he's looking to sign with the UFC in the future.

Also, tell him his head kick KOs are beautiful

If it wasn't for Anderson, Machida would be sitting atop the MW division. I'm sure he's secretly hoping Anderson retires soon.

lyoto is getting up in age and is naturally chunky what makes u so sure he can make mw now?

lyoto is getting up in age and is naturally chunky what makes u so sure he can make mw now?

He weighed in at 201 for his fight with Bader and he has weighed in below 205 on more than one occasion.

Machida walks around 205 to 210 (his max weight).

Finally, at age 34, he hasn't slowed down [physically] one bit.

He fights at his natural weight...he could make 185 pretty easily, doubt that would affect his quickness at all

Of course hes slowd down there was a time when he was so elusive he couldnt be caught.And him weighing in once at 201 means what exactly? mw is -16 of that, monster cut which makes a huge difference

Its not just about quickness. The cut could just as easily hurt his strength and decrease his centre of gravity..But its whatever y'all clowns just argue for arguing sake once u see the name no matter the facts staring u in the face

You know theres a difference between losing weight and a weight cut right? If hes naturally 201..he could stand to lose a few pouds via diet..and cut water weight. Its not that crazy if you really think about it
