Just my opinion guys, I believe these 4 guys should duke it out and find out who challenges the winner of Silva vs Sonnen. A 4 way tournament between Munoz, Bisping, Stann and Palhares. I'm not sure how they would be matched-up, but I am sure all matches will be excellent fights.
Munoz is next in line if he beats Weidman. If Weidman wins then he probably has one more fight against the likes of Bisping. Stann vs Palhares is good fight.
I have no idea why Stann is in title contention, anyone care to enlightwn me? If you had to make a fighter to be kodded by Silva within two minutes, it would be him
Because he's a marine. USA loves a war hero. Nothing is easier to sell than a good honest marine who's fighting to feed his kids and defend his country. Cue...."USA USA USA!".
Other than Scurl's post I have no idea. He got molested and I mean molested by Sonnen. I've no idea how he even found himself in that fight he's an entertaining fighter but he is going to get beat almost any time he steps up.
I guess you guys a right. Those knees he threw against Sakara was like watching Roy Nelson do the can-can. He's got power, and that's it really. Ohh well, rant over I guess USA! USA! USA!
I like this There is no clear #1 contender aside from Sonnen , however that said i believe Vitor Belfort to be the closest thing we have to that , and you havent mentioned him ??? Ive been banging this drum for a while now , but i think Silva should fight @205 while the rest of the guys @185 slug it out and build up a title worthy run !!! , that said if / when Belfort destroys Silva , he will IMO fight Silva / Sonnen for the title But , if there was a mythical 4 man MW tourney happening some time soon , these would be my 4 : Belfort vs Palhares Lombard vs Munoz Bisping vs Stann would be a co main in a UK based card , outside of the title picture
Has Belfort done something amazing recently that everyone has kept a secret from me? Every time the championship at middleweight is brought up his name gets mentioned, but it seems to me that he had his shot and he got brutally and spectacularly kodded inside of a round. Has he done anything to prove that a second shot wouldn't end exactly the same way?
