Junior dos Santos......

JDS is going to be the UFC HW champ one day, there is no doubt in my mind now.

 

Hardy is tough, thick and rugged but he doesnt have the natural ability of JDS. That handspeed, you cant teach that. Thats a WW type handspeed on a big dude. Frankly, thats almost an unfair advantage for a HW. Hes only 25 years old, this kid still learning.

 

Even his cage entrance was badass, where he throws down the sign of the cross and stomps on it. And that thing he did when Buffer announced his name. Then he backs it up with a brutal victory.

 

The guy trains with all the Brazilians, that is even more unfair. Can you imagine the level of sparring he gets from the Nogs, Rua, Silva etc

 

And Lyoto as well since hes in and out of Blackhouse. Then you throw in some of the best BJJ guys on the planet (Jacare, Galvao, Filho, Schembri) This kid at 25 as dynamic as he is now, his best is yet to come. Pretty scary.

 

I agree completely. That **** psyches him and me up.

 

JDS v Toney. That'd be a good match up.

 

He better use his kicks and knees, because if he just box very Toney, it will be a very short night for him

 

dos santos needs to be given a real test hes been given easy fights. the only hard fight he had was werdum and werdum took him easy because he was unknown. put him against one of the many wrestlers in the division and see how well he kos people from his back.

 

even though he never been on the ground yet i am pretty positive his ground game is top class. You dont consider Big Nog your mentor and not pick up some tricks.

 

Sounds good to me. Having the hands of stone helps JDS though. Toney needs to put up or shut up with the MMA can't use their hands bull****.

Or Toney v Velazquez for same reason.

 

that dosnt mean anything. paulo filho considers iron mike his idol and hes a bjj guy. also hw bjj is typically really bad. im willing to bet he never holds the belt and loses against cain carwin or lesnar

 

he beat GG a man whos only ever lost by ko or tko. werdum tkoed him twice for god sakes. sorry i just cant buy into the hype until hes been truly tested and comes through

 

He beat up Cro Cop you goose.

 

Cro Crop is shot completly. Watch him in Pride then watch a fight now. He lost his speed, his agression...
