The MMA Thread. BJ Penn Didn't Die #HeDeadThough

Seriously, Mir is a top 5 HW yet people treat him like he isn’t top 20.

Nigga the 3 guys at your local buffalo wild wings might underestimate Anderson but you don’t see that shit here.

I’ll give you top 10 but not top five bro that is just trolling.
The guy has a great skillset but like the Almight Kos he think’s he’s an elite level striker.
Go with what got you to the dance breh.

Sonnen saw what andy did to his boy and he seemed scared on MMA live to me. He’ll never admit but I think he’s scared a little bit who wouldn’t be? It’s the goddamn spider!!! It doesn’t mean he won’t fight or do okay but he still scared.

Sonnen fans be insecure as hell boy damn! I don’t even dislike sonnen when he not doing his wwe crap. You see I was a fan of his way back before this mess with Andy. Long story short I got fed up with his choking in title fights and lack of improving his style. My god he still fights exactly like he used all those years ago where’s the improvment???

I said it before I can only be a fan for so long of a fighter who doesn’t even try to advance his skillset. Shit even Vitor improved his wrestling but Chael can’t improve his striking?? Kick rocks

How is that trolling at all? What other 5 guys are head over heels better than him.

Disagreeing is one thing. But to say that its trolling is trolling :razzy:

I could give a shit about shitdog, yahoo, or espn’s ranking. I personally believe that Mir is top 5. Mir’s biggest weakness is his retarded gameplans he has. Like the im going to lift a lot of weights and beat Shane Carwin gameplan.

One of these things is not like the other,one proves your fucking retarded.

Cain,JDS,Reem,Carwin,Brock(two brutal beatings dispute the argument you are forming)

Not really. When Serra bulldozed GSP I didn’t think at Serra>GSP after that fight. I think Mir is better than Carwin but his mentality of getting bigger = winning going into that fight was completely stupid. Brock is debatable, i think he is a matchup nightmare for Mir but I will take Mir to put on a better fight agains Cain, JDS, and Reem.

EDIT: In my original post about Mir being top 5 I should have said I personally believe he is top 5 and not state is as fact. I see what I did wrong there. Basically the point I wanted to get across is people think Mir is shitty when its far from the truth.

hey sorry if i missed much of the discussion was it true chael tested positive for roids and thats why he did so well versus silva? i know its an old topic but if anyone has any clarity into the subject i’ll be glad to read it.

Cain isn’t unbeatable. FFS Kongo dropped him. JDS is the only Heavyweight that has looked unstoppable to me so far (and I fully expect him to beat Cain). Mir cold get Reem to the ground and work him hard and make him gas after 1 which Reem is susceptible to. I think Mir could take Barnett and Cromier as well.

Look im not saying he would beat them, but it would be more competitive than Brock, who when gets hit waltzes around the octagon like a drunken gypsy.

You mean the same Brock who beat the living fuck out of Mir twice? :lol:

I think Mir is a pretty easy top-10 candidate (even as a Mir hater), but top 5 is definitely a stretch, IMO.

Hey man its your opinion, you can think whatever you want. Im not trying to persuade you into thinking that, but just trying to state why I think he is #5.

I’m not dumb but apparently you can’t handle the fact that some people think Silva is protected by a weak division and would be only top 10 in another division. I’ve had conversation with people who think this.

I never said Mir was top 5 btw but he could be if he strings some wins together.

You guys need thicker skin, you get angry over nothing when not even talking to you then don’t even have the balls to prove it by stating why the person you disagree with is wrong you justpost some pic that has nothing to do with anything and think you made a point.

Then have the nerves to make fun of sherdog forums when you do the same things as the guys n those forums lmao!!!
I don’t care much for those forums either but its still funny

I already stated Brock is a matchup nightmare for Mir. Although if they had a 3rd bout I would expect it to be much more competitive than the pummeling he took at 100.

You need a hobby my ninja :rofl:

I don’t think I can even hold a candle up to you for this year’s title of biggest MMA hater. :lol:

I heard someone mention MIr’s “get big to beat big” strategy lol. I gotta give Mir credit for trying man. He tried everything he could to not get raped by the big HW wrestlers. But against guys like cain more his size he could have a shot not a great one but a shot to win.

I surprised people think he could beat REEM when I think that maybe the single worse matchup for him right now. Especially how confident Reem is, Reem has been quoted saying he would go to the ground with Brock. He is really feeling himself right now.

Lol Reem doesn’t/won’t go to the ground with Brock if he had his way with how the fight went exactly. If Brock lays on top of him for 1 round Overeem will be completely gassed. I don’t expect this to happen, I expect a quick TKO by Reem. Because Brock can’t take punches.

Every fighter will say before a fight “they feel comfortable wherever the fight goes” yet thats not what they are thinking. Shit, we kept hearing Dan Hardy say how his wrestling has improved exponentially since GSP and Rumble pretty much took a shit on that notion.

rock calm down wit the pics.

all elbows mini doc on greg jacksons school from a month back. interesting stuff.

No no my friend he said I’m fine going to the ground with him. As in I would probably be able to tap him if I had to. At least that how I heard it, I believe Reem think he could too.

After all this is the same guy dumb enough to trade punches with Badr Hari! I don’t care if Reem Ko’d him once you should always jab and move on that guy. It’s just playing with that shouldn’t be fucked with fire that he always has done throughout his career.

I remember him trading punches with Shogun with me at home ( I was like 12 back then) for him to keep shooting on Shogun but no…ugh he better not go to the ground or I’m smashing my tv

Entertaining thread tonight.

Noticed Jones is at -500 while Rampage is +350. Value there?
