Paul Daley vs Paulo Thiago

Recommended Posts

If Daley continues his pace and runs through another top contender in Koscheck then I would love to see this fight A. because of the huge stylistic differences and B. because who wouldn't wanna see Daley blast another fighter into unconsciousness not to be at all underrated though Daley might find one of his limbs in a awkward position.

 

P.S winner of this fight would be an awesome title fight

 

Thoughts? Comments? opinions on who would win?

id love to see Daley beat Thiago but as thiagos overall skills have beginning to show i think Paulo would win via perhaps a sub but i went for a Paul Daley TKO over him

 

but Paulo is greatly becoming more of a favortite fighter of mine as more of his skills are shown

Paulo Thiago will smash Paul Daley. Daley is nothing. Way overrated for beating 2 low ranked WW's in the UFC.

 

haha oh yes, cause martin kampmann wasnt in title contention to fight GSP if he beat mike swick who he was originally set to fight before swick pulled out?

and dustin hazelett isnt one of if not THE best submission artist in the WW division?

you sir, are an idiot

Thiago by submission. What is it 4 or 5 submission losses for Paul Daley? You guys are hyping this guy up way too soon. He's got 0 ground game. He'll be exposed by any BJJ fighter who actually decides to take him down (Yes I'm looking at you Dustin).

 

We have yet to see Daley's ground game. Who knows, the guy may have learned enough to avoid subs.

 

With that said, Daley's nothing more than a british version of Manhoef. I bet a well placed hook by Thiago will put him to sleep.

+1 Daley fought two good fighters in Kampmann and Hazelett.

 

If its going to be Daley vs Kos, I would have to favour Daley.

 

But I dont like Kos, blonde pube haired weirdo.

I dont no mate i think thiago has awesome power but daleys chin is really good but so far thiagos chin looks great aswell, so i picked thiago by sub but it could go either way for me

That's exactly who Daley reminds me of. Except I think Manhoef is a better striker than Daley to be honest.

 

I'm sure he's worked on his ground game and his TD defense is pretty good, but it's still a question. Mark. He's been submitted 4 or 5 times and until he showcases new and improved, he's still considered to have a weak ground game.

2 of those submissions were in 2003 and were only his 2nd and 3rd fights in MMA.

 

Even though he got sub'd by Shields in 2008, I still think he's improved.

Yeah, but he's still got some work to do. Granted Shields is a monster but so is Thiago. That d'arce was incredible. And he may have improved but until he showcases it his ground game is only as good as the last time we seen him on the ground. And that was when Shields submitted him.

He can only show if he's improved if it goes to the ground though. All fights start standing. We'll see when he gets taken down.

I don't ever wanna see daley fight fitch or GSP

keep giving him guys with lower than average stand up or lower

 

(I know Kampman is the danish MT champ and all but he doesn't exactly do much with his striking other than use it to soften up his opponents and get a sub locked in since his wrestling is pretty diabolical by ufc standards)

that's what everybody said before he fought KOS

 

Nah i saw that fight differently because i dislike Kos you see lol, I believed Thiago had superior striking, during that fight it was clear his striking wasn't the best but he still landed an uppercut which you can't really claim as a fluke, no one can fluke throw an uppercut unless they have their eyes closed. Still Kos hasn't really impressed me too be honest, Thiago would beat him in the rematch because his striking has improved alot. Even though i do believe Swick seemed a tad tenative...but i guess that's what Dan Hardy has done to him. Made him rethink his whole style.

just thought id bring it up, I agree that KOS is a complete **** though and throwing and uppercut then a hook can't be a fluke, h threw what he wanted and it landed
