    Bellator featherweights vs UFC

    Pico - It wouldn’t be wise to throw him in the fire right now as he’s building back up, but l’d give him a 50% chance of beating most UFC guys outside the top 15 and some in the 10-15 range. He’d be a stylistic nightmare for a guy like Bryce Mitchell, for example. Caldwell - I agree he’s...

    Aaron Pico is getting his groove going

    Both are down at BW—Archuleta recently won the vacant title against Patchy Mix. In fact, Bellator’s BW division is shaping up very nicely as well. They already have Archuleta, Pettis, Mix and Higo and just signed Matheus Mattos and Magomed Magomdov (the guy who went 1-1 against Yan).

    Aaron Pico is getting his groove going

    At 20 years old, Cody Garbrandt got knocked out so violently he had a seizure in the cage and even with a suspect chin, nonexistent fight IQ, and a fraction of the wrestling pedigree Pico has, he still went on to win a UFC title against the BW GOAT. Pico will be fine if he continues to maximize...

    Aaron Pico Looking Great

    Girtz throws bombs. I’d keep Pico away from anyone with serious power for now. Someone in that tier makes sense, but not Girtz.

    Aaron Pico Looking Great

    IIRC, Coker said he’d be matched carefully prior to this fight being booked, so they might throw him to the wolves in his next fight. I’d like to see him take one more fight at around the level where he fought tonight, but I don’t think Bellator has many mid-tier guys that will be willing to...

    Aaron Pico Looking Great

    His opponent tonight was tougher than his record suggests. Of his 8 losses coming in, 5 were against guys that have gone on to fight in the UFC and 1 was against Jason Soares (14-0 Titan FC champ). He had never lost by KO/TKO, and in his last fight he beat a 16-1 fighter. I thought De Jesus...

    Joe Rogan was absolutely ignorant tonight

    Wtf does any of this have to do with being dumb enough to join the military? Scared about getting sick? You’re welcome to stay home and avoid all human contact. No one is forcing you to participate in civil society. Worried about your grandparents dying? Don’t go visit grandma and grandpa...

    Unpopular opinion: as a martial arts super fanatic....

    Plus the modern division of labor that didn’t exist in 6th century China. People who are good at fighting can do it for a living and then go on to coach it. In most mid-sized cities there are a dozens of MMA gyms with multiple full-time coaches. How much can you really “master” a martial art...

    Unpopular opinion: as a martial arts super fanatic....

    If you’re fighting multiple guys who really want to beat you up, knowing how to grapple (wrestling in particular) is more important than striking imo, but your 40 time is even more important.

    Unpopular opinion: as a martial arts super fanatic....

    Lol I wrestled for 6 years and started training BJJ sophomore year of high school, only dabbled in striking here and there over that time. I also happened to have gotten into more street fights than I’m proud of while in college, and for a while afterwards. There has not been a single...

    Khabib the weight bully

    ...you guys do know almost everyone tends to exaggerates how much they gain after weigh-ins right? Everyone on here quotes post weigh-in weight like it legit.

    Coach Kavanagh's statement here kind of explains why Conor has a weak heart imo

    Apparently, he’s not scared enough. Conor is not a “top level endurance athlete”. 80/20 makes sense for a long term training plan but in an MMA fight you need to be able to stay close to redline for most of the fight. Unless you’re already in phenomenal shape coming in, you’re not going to get...

    Dana White Explains Why Conor is Ahead of Gaethje if He Beats Cowboy at 170

    Exactly. If a short term money grab were the only objective, they could just strip Khabib right now and set up Conor Vs Logan Paul for the LW title.

    Abdulnap: Conor has to earn his shot at Khabib by beating Islam Makhachev

    But they won’t because that would be a terrible decision which would hurt the UFC more than it hurts Khabib.

    Media Donald Cerrone Confirms He'll Only Be Standing and Banging w/ Conor McGregor

    No it isn’t. Conor has like 15th percentile TDD at 170.

    Conor has become underrated and it will help his comeback

    This. Conor has not been very impressive above 145. He has severe cardio issues and he will always have shit wrestling despite what many people want to believe. If Cowboy stands in front of Conor, the fight may look like the Conor vs Eddie fight, and the “CoNoR iS bAcK” hype train will start...
