    It IS Strange How Rogan HARD Sells Nganno's BadAssery (and Who Knows, Maybe it Proves to Be True?) Based on his KO's of Arlovski and Overeem, BOTH of Whom Stipe's Also KO'e...

    In the 1st Round, No Lesso_O....

    "Bombs Away" APTLY Describes this Fight, Which Will End in the 1st Round, Regardless Who Comes Out Victorious...

    Nganno's More WELL ROUNDED, But Stipe's Clearly More BATTLE TESTED; More PROVEN...

    Can't Wait...

    More well rounded?? Are you kidding?
    Nag has no formal ground training.

    Stipe will dominate on the ground.

    He Works w/Vinny Malgahes (sp), Who's Certainly No Slouch in the BJJ World....

    Stipe's a Better Wrestler, But it's NOT Like He Has More Submissions or Anything....

    So just because Ngannou has a couple of submissions against total scrubs early in his career he is more well rounded than Stipe?

    He can work with whoever in the world he wants. That doesn’t give him a good ground game.

    Bottom line is Stipe was a D1 wrestler even though he rarely uses Wrestling offensively.

    Ngannou is definitely not more well rounded. He's just a big strong guy with a big punch. Stipe has wrestling, boxing, kickboxing... I think Ngannou is HIGHLY overrated and Stipe's striking is much more precise and polished. As long as Stipe fights smart he should pick him apart and lower the boom.

    "Early in his Career"??? He Has a Sub in UFC Dude...

    And Who Said He Has a "Good Ground Game"???...REED Said He was More "Well Rounded", No More, No Less...Clearly, You're Bothered by That...

    It's Moot Anyways, as This Will Be a SLUGFEST, Not a Grappling Match...

    So because he trains with Vinny Malgahes he’s a more well rounded fighter? What am I missing here?

    In for a quick nibble.
    Stipe will go in as a respectful, all American boy, and wake up a short time later as a frustrated Polish racist.

    lol. I think Stipe wins by TKO in the second, but Ngannou could spark him out early too.

    If Dana has to come into the octagon post fight and put that belt around stipe's waist watch closely and you will probably catch a couple tears.

    Stipe Miocic is highly overrated. The guys that he's beaten are a bunch of over the hill, aging, shopworn fighters who are near the end of their careers and who've all been in numerous wars and have been KO'd long before he dusted them off. Stipe is a lot like Tim Sylvia back when Sylvia had 2 successful runs both leading up to the title and while reigning as champion. He was KOing a whole lot of guys who at the time were the best around. What precisely worked for Sylvia was his size and his boxing along with a very basic ground game. Beyond that, he was a 2 left footed, weak chinned, lumbering guy with a lot of limitations. I see Stipe similarly as just another transitional champion. A guy who happened to be at the right place at the right time and feasting on a very weak division. As for Ngannou, I'm not entirely sure that he's a hype job. When you watch his past fights including against exceptional wrestlers, he seems to have some quality and nuances that go unnoticed including an instance where he turned his weight over in the middle of being taken down and getting the fight back to the feet instantly. He's more intelligent than he's being given credit for. With his explosive punching power and athletic abilities and speed, he's got a solid chance to take the title tonight. I see Ngannou as a superior athlete and Stipe's experience may not be enough to win against this beast.

    LOL! Come on dude. Stipe has wrestling and that's it. His boxing and kickboxing is very suspect. His chin is so far out there just waiting to be cracked whenever he's throwing his hands. He has zero head movement. His kicks are basic and his shin exploded after JDS kicked him a couple of times. Sorry but this isn't the evolution of MMA heavyweights. A jack of all trades who's gonna get f*cked up sooner or later. Hopefully sooner. Just a guy feasting on a dead division.
