Overeem vs Dos Santos or Dos Santos vs Cormier

Cormier will go to LHW if he can make weight now that Cain's champ, he said so himself.

 

The only logical fight is JDS vs Reem in a title eliminator.

 

Both of them need one good win to get back in title contention, they already have an history and the UFC can market this as a "who is the best striker at HW" kind of fight.

 

Although Dana is already seeing the $$ signs in a easily promotable third fight between the two I think Cain and JDS need a break off each other.

 

I hope they both fight at least two different fighters (especially JDS, he needs to fight somebody with a ground game, but who?), before they face each other again.

Eh, honestly I'm not sure...

 

Cormier's legit and all, but he's yet to accomplish anything deserving of all the hype surrounding this cat. Since he's likely not staying at heavyweight, though, I suppose it does come down to Alistair vs Junior. This fight makes me nervous. I personally would like to see Junior earn another bout with Cain, but with what we saw out there Saturday...it makes me wonder. Overroid definitely hits harder than Velasquez. And with the way JDS keeps his hands down and chin up as he is backing away...well...I don't think I need to say much else.

 

JDS went from being the most feared striker in the HW division to being a question mark. His boxing may be better, but Velasquez outstruck JDS terribly and really seemed to lay out the blueprint for beating him.

 

I fear JDS' Achilles heel has been exposed...and the Roid will capitalize.

i think JDS is still one of the best strikers in the heavyweight division. Sure Cain did catch him but it was the worry of the take downs that made JDS drop his guard. And you won't see that with overeem. JDS is gonna learn from this and be even better.

 

After Overeem wrecks BF, JDS and Overeem. Winner takes Cain

I don't think HW can afford to have title eliminators like that, the division doesn't have enough talent. Overeem will probably wreck Big Goof Silva then go on to fight Cain. In the mean time JDS will probably KO some average HW to earn himself a title shot vs the winner of Cain vs Overeem.

i said this b4...JDS fights the loser of Overeem vs BF...then he fights the winner of Cain vs Overeem...you see i already picked the winner thats going to fight Overeem for the title ...JDS

 

He won't fight Big Foot (the loser) because Big Foot will have lost 3 out of his last 4 and can't be taken seriously as the gatekeeper to a title match anymore.

 

Someone like Struve or Roy is more likely. I hear both Roy and Struve complain about their losses to JDS and they're both gaining momentum at the moment.

I would love for JDS to fight Roy or Hightower...but this is beneath my boy...better my scenario ;)

 

They're both more credible than Big Goof Silva. Once Overeem beats him he'll be at the bottom of he division. There's no reason for him to get beat up by JDS. A real title eliminator against Struve would be better and make JDS look better too.

I doubt that Junior will want to have some pity rematch with fighters he's run through like Struve or Nelson. Especially Struve cause he finished him.

 

But I do agree that there isn't enough talent in the HW. Cause anyone left in the HW division has already been definitively defeated by either JDS or Cain.

you know...i could go with Hunt

 

I would like to see that one, but JDS doesn't.

 

why wouldnt he?you lost me

 

I always said the "surprise" drug test on Reem was to save JDS from an **** kicking. JDS doesn't want to fight Reem.

 

Fail. Junior does not have any pull with a state athletic commission and what they plan to do. Who was scared to get their **** kicked? The guy who passed a random drug test or a dude who was so scared of fighting fair, had to cheat to give himself a chance in hell.

Depends on if you think some fighters don't get warnings about "random" drug tests.
