god this is sick, Fertitta, who has more than 76,000 followers on his verified Twitter account, said late Thursday night that he'd answer questions from fans. Among the pieces of information he provided are that Velasquez will fight Mir in a bout that may determine the No. 1 contender for the upcoming heavyweight title fight between Junior dos Santos and Alistair Overeem. Fertitta also said a third fight between Ortiz and Griffin is coming. Ortiz beat Griffin by split decision at UFC 59 in 2006, and Griffin beat Ortiz by split decision at UFC 106 in 2009. WAR GRIFFIN AND CAIN AGAGAGHAHGH
I like Mir vs. Cain. I do not like Ortiz vs. Griffin 3, very dull fight. I'm more in favour of Griffin vs. Bonnar III. And I would've also liked to see Cain vs. Carwin but oh well.
Good match up for Mir and Cain, interesting mesh of styles. I actually like Frank's chances in the stand up in this, at least until it hits clinch range and Cain gets the TD And I dont begrudge Tito v Forrest going at it one more time, but Im not really interested in this. But it's probably both guys last harrah, Tito should retire, and so should Forrest, unless he wants to suffer a Wandy/Chuck like run of kods at the end of his career
That's a good call, in place of the Tito match anyway And I wouldnt let Carwin anywhere near Cain if you want to tap into the Mexican PPV audience, but as you say would be a good match
I'm a Carwin mark and I don't really like Cain, mostly because of his **** tattoo actually. Would be a great fight, winnable for both.
I like this fight for Mir. He showed better take down defence in Lesnar 2 and Carwin. He needs to avoid the clinch and keep this standing as long as he can. probably the best fight that can be made for a number 1 spot at heavy as well.
I dig it Mir vs Velasquez is an excellent fight id give Cain the advantage but Mir is so dangerous wherever the fight takes place. Love Tito vs Forrest III both fights where close and entertaining and both guys are on the verge of retirement why not settle the score ?
Tito said in his last fight that he will take one more fight before he reitres and wanted Forrest. Or i could be talking out of my ass
My first thought is Mir and Ortiz are getting ****ed up. Neither Mir or Ortiz will be able to handle the pace as well as the skill set.
