UFC on FOX 15: Machida vs. Rockhold

Rockhold is not to be slept on, I expect a good fight. Better than most think at least. .
 
Rockhold is definitely the physical stronger fighter
his ground game is beating Machida
 
Rockhold has made his name known for a possible title shot
with this dominant performance
 
To be honest, at this point Rockhold looks like he could take Weidman and finish him. Weidman's wrestling would get nullified and taking Rockhold down isn't a good idea, anyway. On the feet, Weidman uses offense as defense, which will leave his open to Rockhold's counter strikes. This asshole just might be the next champ if Weidman makes it past Vitor (which he will).
 
That elbow to the back of the head that Rockhold gave Machida at the end of the first round sealed Machida's fate
 
Whats more interesting it's true Jacare Souza is ranked ahead of Rockhold
but I think styles make matchups. I believe Rockhold can beat Jacare
because when they fought in Strikeforce Rockhold beat Souza.

Rockhold a good matchup against weidman

Yeah, but Rockhold beat a whole different Souza 4 years ago. Souza's been a beast since then and hasn't lost. Rockhold has been KO'd by Vitor since then. Style's make the fight, but both Kenny and Souza look good against Weidman to me.

Yeah u right

Jacare is a different fighter from 4 years ago.
but Souza may still have trouble with his striking

but I agree with u Souza and Rockhold both good comp. against weidman

True. What complicates it is they both have 2 KOs, 1 decision and the rest subs since the fought. They've basically been on the same trajectory. Which makes it even more interesting, but I hope Dana doesn't match them up before one of them fights for the title.
 
Good card.


- PVZ took it to Herrig to lead off the main card
- Holloway/Swanson lived up to the hype
- Souza collected a paycheck & hopefully we'll get Souza/Romero later this year when Romero's healthier and can make the bout (credit to Camozzi for stepping up with 1 week's notice)
- Rockhold is no joke. 4th finish in a row at 185lbs after getting stopped by The Young Dinosaur TRTitor Belfort a few years ago when he was stopping fools (Bisping, Henderson, Rockhold)

did weidman really say he thought he was fighting jon jones in december?

is he fucking insane?

boy this kids head is officially blown up

:lol:


He was thinking possible superfight (185/205) ... even though we're all just waiting to see what happens after all these postponements with BELFORT/Weidman and them finally facing this spring ... :lol:
