Is there anyone that poses a threat to Fedor?

Thats because Penns conditioning is poor and he routinely gases after 2 rounds.If he trained properly and came in as a lightweight as he should and used to he would go the full 3 with ease.He has great hands an excellent chin and an awesome ground game.He needs to drop down a division.But with balls as big as his im happy to see him up against the best welters in the world as it wouldnt even be close at lightweight.As for the Pulver fight Jens is going to get obliterated. That fight was a long time ago and much has changed since.Jens has brilliant hands and was a fine boxer but his best days are long gone. Plus his a bit chinny. Im expecting a Penn KO inside of 2 rounds.

 

Mark Hunt is not Top 10 HW (mmaweekly.com)..Did you see Barnett vs Hunt?
Hunt did beat Cro Cop with split decision and Cro Cop did beat Hunt in K1

 

Hunt is a great heavyweight and a legitimate contender.
Many people were calling for that fight and said Hunt was a threat.....now that Fedor beats him he's suddenly a can?.....WTF?

 

Rofl, you beat me to it. It would happen against Couture too.

 

Just so you guys know..(speaking of couture)...
Couture once said that Fedor was in his opinion , the best in MMA...came straight from his mouth...

Couture also said that an opponent of fedor's caliber would cause Him way more problems than anyone...(he once said that when they were talking about crocop & gonzaga). But that He'd still love to fight him

 

Hunt's a great heavyweight against strikers, his fight against Barnett shows that he can't really compete with a big grappler though.

 

I want a source on that. Not saying you're lying, but i'd like to see it. Video/official text or something. *EDIT* No need, just found it.

 

What on earth are you talking about? Just because Monson is big and strong doesn't mean he is slow or muscle bound, thats one of the biggest misconceptions about being strong out there. He works out with one of the best strength and conditioning coaches in combat sports in Rhadi Ferguson, who also happened to be an Olympic Judoka www.rhadi.com

Rhadi being a beast

None of that helped against Tim though did it?

 

Are you stupid? Clearly a new mma fan, ufc nuthugger is you like, who follows mma weekly as his gospel! Get the ****

Mark Hunts debatably top 5 you tool

 

I think the reach was too great a difference, and Monson was going for leg takedowns instead of clinches and trips. Tim easily defended the takedowns and then posed his way to victory.

 

Hunt is a contender for top10 but he's DEFINITELY not top5. He hasn't done nearly enough to be top5.

Monson was ******ed to go straight for the legs like he did. Tall people will sprall out on you no problem. You MUST get an angle on him to take him down. Monson always attacked straight.

 

So what?:rofl Monson is a 240lb heavy that started out as a light heavy who is only 5ft 9.His built like a tank.I never mentioned anything about his conditioning nor strength thats totally immaterial.But if you watch his fight with Tim you`ll see his famed hands were like lead and his musculature which IS NOT trained for explosiveness didnt allow him to do anything except grab Tims ankle and get pummled.FACT Monson is slow.FACT Monson is musclebound.Theres no many here that would disagree.. aprt from you of courseatschatsch

 

Agreed but look at how Randy abused Sylvia! Tims reach meant squat as his jab was non existent too in both fights.Monson is just too musclebound to do anything in a clinch.His not a very agressive fighter and his GNP is non existent.But his very powerful when he can control his opponent on the mat and will submit them with his BJJ.Other than that he doesnt have many advantages going into a fight other than his sub skills and pure strength.

 

Listen, he IS build for explosiveness. Unless you're a bodybuilder, big muscles DEFINE explosiveness. The reason he failed against Tim, like i said, is because he failed at basics of how to take tall people down, or anyone for that matter. He didn't do it off of a punch, he wasn't close when he took ANY of his shots. He failed miserably. You really can't judge him not being explosive from this match.
