Thoughts? Predictions?

I have a feeling Rumble finishes Cormier this time around. Cormier is up there in age (38) and is coming off an injury. This fight could go either way though.

Similar to the main event, Moose/Weidman is a pick em' fight. Both fighters look like they're in great shape, especially Weidman (who looks like he put on some extra muscle). This is Mousasi's last fight on his contract, so you know he's coming in motivated. I give the slight edge to Mousasi in this fight. I think he takes the decision in a back and forth fight. His superior striking will be the difference maker.

The Jones fukkery probably hits harder for Cormier than anyone (other than Jones himself of course) because that's the only real question mark Cormier has left in this weight class, if not in his career. I'm actually curious on how much longer he plans on fighting or if he's lowkey / highkey holding serve in hopes that he'll get one more crack at Jones before it's time to think about retirement

Rumbe is gonna get his ass whooped again.

Yeah, I'm pulling for Rumble, but if it's not a 1st round TKO, DC is gonna win big

 

[Strapped]

Rumble will gas out again & weidman wins

 

[Inertia Creeps]

Thinkin Rumble gonna land that bomb early but this time DC ain't gettin back up

People really sleep on DC, he is a straight monster. This guy literally takes 200 plus pound men and folds these dudes in mid air.

He's the best grappler outside of Jon Jones in the division period.

DC been real disrespectful to Rumble on these Embedded's. Rumble is the wrong guy to piss off, that punch he caught him with in the first fight didn't hurt DC. I think Rumble will land that finisher this time.

If the motivated Moose shows up Weidman is getting fukked up.

That Pearl Gonzalez jawn is easy on the eyes

DC can still take this. He's one of the most durable LHWs. Rumble is still one of the dangerous and scariest guys out there so I doubt DC is sleeping on him.

I so want Moose to take this. Weidman has had his time. I want to see Gegard get a title shot.

they are about to ban ariel again

 

[8====D]

If Rumble stays patient and utilizes his jab to set up his one hitter quitter, he will win this early.

I hope Moose takes Weidman's soul via whatever finish he chooses. . .I hate that lunchbox head(ed) cornball!

 

[FrankyFourFingers]

Nothin but respect for DC. He been through alot and still perseveres. Hoping he pulls it off. Rumble class act to tho. Hope moose ko weidman

 

[joeychizzle]
