Indeed, I probably overrated him, even when he was on roids. Still, he was a lot stronger, resilient and powerful when he was on the juice. No way he would have lost to Rothwell back then
Never Seen Jacare Fight Before...Does he ALWAYS Fight as HARD as He Did, in Round 1???... PRESSURED Mousasi the Entire Round, Tried like Hell to Take him Down, Finally Did, then KEPT him on the Ground for the Remaining 2+ Minutes...& he was Going for Submissions &/or Throwing Strikes, the Entire Time they were On the Ground... Dude Must Have INSANE Cardio... REED:clapagain:
Mousasi Got DOMINATED on the Ground, in Round 2... Jacare was like a VIOLENT Blanket that CONSTANTLY Smothered Mousasi... REED:mj:
CLINICAL Destruction... Jacare Wore Mousasi Down Physically AND Mentally, then Forces the Tap, via Guillotine...IMPRESSIVE Shit... REED:clapagain:
Jacare vs. Weidman Would Be EXPLOSIVE as Hell... Both Men IMPOSE Themselves on their Opponents & are CONSTANT Threats, Every Second of Every Round, Standing OR On the Ground...Guaranteed Fireworks, Guaranteed Action...A More SKILLFUL Version of Hendricks-Lawler, w/it's Fair Share of Standup Exchanges... Let's SEE This Shit!!!... REED:shadow:
Pettis looked fucking big for a 155 pounder. Bear in mind he looks a legit 5'9. What do you think his walking weight is?
I hope Jacare wins, as I don't like Weidman, but I pick Weidman. Excellent wrestling, and just very solid and hard to beat.
It's funny how people are assuming Weidman beats Belfort. I think that's an extremely dangerous fight.
Belfort strikes hard enough to have a chance, but the non cartoon version of him should get run over by Weidman. I suspect Weidman's wrestling is better than Jacare's and Jacare's striking isn't good enough to keep it from being a wrestling match. I don't think Jacare subs him, either. Boring, dominant Weidman win is my pick.
I pretty much agree, but I don't see a dominant decision for Weidboy. Jacare is a beast who fights very hard, and is well rounded. Can't really see anyone dominating him. I expect Weidboy close but clear.
