Who do you think wins Kongo vs Nelson, seems like a dull fight , but hard to call

I expect a KO once Roy finds his range and gets separation from the ensuing clinchfest Kongo will bring. There is not a dumber, more infuriating fighter in the UFC than kongo. Not only is he a dirtball, he also had Velasquez beat in that fight but foolishly let him off the hook multiple times. I will always root against him. That whole undercard of 159 is much more interesting then the two main events

Cormier is poised to take quite a bit of thunder away from Jon Jones. If that bowling ball of a man could throw flying kicks like that as a heavyweight, imagine what he could do at 205?

Why does everyone want Cormier to go to 205 when hes clearly a behemoth. No one is going to manhandle him in the UFC.

Because he won't fight Cain. There's no point in two guys who are probably the divisions most dominant to be in the same division if they're not going to fight each other. It may work out for the best if he can safely cut the weight, Jon Jones is still planning on a move to heavyweight. I can see him stepping in as the dominant champ at lhw if this happens

because he looks like uncle phil at 235, yet is still hella fast, so I'm curious to see how blindingly fast he will be at 205 provided that his cut is a graceful one. Theoretically he could prob make 185.

Good lord. You guys are trying to hurt that man. Those cuts are ridiculous.

Why would he be in heavy weight if he had no plans on fighting cain? You think hes going to get 3 fights deep and just drop to another weight class. Id be stunned if he did, friend.

Him and Cain are training partners/friends and have both said they won't fight. I'm pretty sure he's still fighting at heavy until he gets a guaranteed shot at the lhw belt or at least a #1 contender fight, It wouldn't be worth it to drop down If he doesn't
