Prediction: correct Romero   correct KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

Man, I thought Chris looked great in the 1st round. He was doing well in the 2nd, until that td. Yoel is a freak with his takedowns and pivots on top. But he timed that knee beautifully in the 3rd. He set Chris up with a body kick earlier. He noticed Chris was leaning in to catch the kick and go for the td. So in the 3rd he feinted, then when Chris leaned, BOOM goes the dynamite.

Great fight from both guys. In my eyes, Chris is still at the top of the heap. He lost to two of the elite guys in mma, not just at mw. And it's not like he was outclassed in either fight. He was starting to really put in on Luke until he went for that spinning wheel kick. In the Yoel fight, I had it one round a piece. So I think Chris should get the winner of Brunson vs Whittaker next.

I agree, he won the first round. He took down an Olympic Silver medalist for God's sake.

Weidman winning the damn fight and gets caught. 

I still think he is top 2-3 in division.

Prediction: wrong Weidman   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 3  

@Yoss I hope you didn't misinterpret what I meant, haha. Romero still technically "landed" the knee, but maybe it wasn't the best word choice. Still, that was a great strike from Romero and props to him for the win. The fight was definitely a round a piece though before that. Anything can happen, and that's why I love MMA. 

Anyway, I was mostly replying to StreamFan's lamebrain comment that Romero and Rockhold are "FAR superior" to Weidman.

Yoel Romero vs Michael Bisping

If Yoel fights for the title, Bisping would have a tough test on his hands but i recon Bisping will be able to survive Yoel's power.

Prediction: wrong Weidman   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 3  

I like Bisping and his whole Cinderella story but the likelihood if him surviving Yoels Power and wrestling game is slim. It's MMA and anything could happen but I put Bispings chance of victory honestly around 20%

Bisping should just foul the hell out of Romero. It's his best shot and nobody would really care because it would be happening to Romero.
