If Rountree can tighten up his ground game he could be a big threat with the type of power he has. He is still very green so there is a lot of room for improvement.

@Legz  Iirc he does that a lot?Such a d-bag move.I was really hoping Craig would win,I thought it was 50/50 but performances like that really turn me off of fighters,I mean *** was that?!As far as Khalil he'll have success and look amazing vs most of the bottom of the barrel but I don't think he'll ever be anything special he's shown too many holes that at this point in his career he shouldn't have but maybe he's already improved a lot and we just haven't seen it.

My intuition tells me he'll lose to most decent guys that fights him smart.Idk though,just like all of us i'm wrong all the time which is why mma is so fun to watch.I mean he's been horrible on the ground in the past among other issues in his game like cardio and possibly heart.Your typical breakable bully style imo.

Yeah Rountree standing over him like that was very d-bagish. I say if the average Rountree is that full of himself give him Gustafsson or Manuwa next. Watch he won't be standing over them. Ha!

This is going to sound very childish but Janes is like a walking boner,so awkward.He's improved a good bit though which is a little bit crazy to say.

I want to say I have seen Khalil do that before almost for sure.

Janes looks like he is asking to be KOed but is able to absorb an abnormal amount of punishment.

Well I'm embarrassed to say how much money I just lost on that one. Thought for sure Janes wouldn't last 15

Janes looks horrible but is oddly effective with his chin,pressure and cardio.He might not throw them in a normal way but his hands and combinations aren't horrible either and has good range.Just a really weird style and i'm actually quite surprised by him.He's actually improved a lot,he was way worse standing before.

Before the fight I would have said Janes is the absolute perfect match up for Marshman because of his horrible striking especially striking defense but it was very competitive.Kinda surprised Marshman didn't look better in that fight but I think Janes surprised him with his chin and pressure and threw him off.

I think a good example of someone I think looks horrible striking (or at least used to)but is oddly effective is Krylov.When he started with the UFC his striking was laughable,he improved a ton but still looks kinda ****** yet ****s people up.

Yes, he took a lot of shots.

I expect this fight to be super competitive but Felder is so off and on.Ray has the style to mix in some td's and hold his own standing winning a decision but i'm leaning Felder because he's more dynamic on the feet and could possibly keep it there.Ray could have very good success standing if Felder is too worried about the td.I really have no clue here,I can see either guy winning and Felder can't have one of his semi inactive fights cause he'll get out worked.

That promo was just odd using the Jones getting in trouble angle then Jones saying "I have to get out of my own way" "I have to get my life back" etc.You know that guy was coached to say that stuff,I don't think that's his character.Just seemed so fake.UFC promo's are getting pretty stupid.


I have never seen Game of Thrones,I don't watch much TV,what was that all about?Is he a bad guy in the show and everyone takes things too serious?

I feel like they've sold themselves short none of them are striking to set up their grappling their just hesitating so much in there. Seems like so many forgot their fundamentals tonight
