UFC Fight Night: Sandhagen vs. Dillashaw

The official Tapology discussion thread for the event!

Sandhagen vs. Dillashaw
Cory Sandhagen, TKO, R3
I don't know what T.J. Dillashaw will look like after 2 years out of the cage but what I do know is that Cory Sandhagen has knockout power and I'd be surprised if he couldn't find a way of getting at Dillashaw. It might take him a few rounds but I'm sure Sandhagen will find a way of finishing Dillashaw.

All the people I follow are hammering the Heinisch line. Making me consider it...

Due to training with Hawes who just beat Imamov?

Yeah and also just the big step down in competition. They feel like -135 (now about -155) is really good for it. I've just never been overly impressed by Heinisch in general. 

I feel like in MMA we got pretty hung up on the black and white outcomes, where in other sports it’s much more visible due to progressive scoring. Heinisch “scored” a lot on Gastelum, Heinisch isn’t top 10, but he’s pretty ******* good.

Yeah but also his segments of UFC embedded was him praying on a hotel bible in a dark hotel room, and it had some real "guy who's about to get got in a No Country For Old Men scene" vibes. 

Punachele Soriano vs. Jamie Pickett unanimously. best puncher in this weight class. 8-0
would have knocked out Strickland in round 1

Nassourdine Imavov who won a close battle against a disabled person, a diabetic, is he a good fighter for you? If he had met with the opposition with whom Ian Heinisch had met, he would have regretted fighting at all. Imavov 

I do not understand how you can be as stupid as you and praise a person who showed a close fight with a person who suffers from sugar diabetes. In my opinion Jordan Williams won that fight and he has a lot of respect. It's still news to me how this Imavov got to the UFC. 
The hype about him training in the gym with Gane?

lol you can go back and read every comment I've ever left on here and not a one of them will include a word of praise for Imavov. I've just also gone undefeated fading Heinisch. I know this is a step down from the top guys he was fighting, but it's a hurdle to recalibrate your brain like that.

Did you misread my comments? I was saying I was thinking about betting Heinisch...

Sorry bro! I do not understand stupid idiots who believe in Imavov and put their thumbs down. Imavov accidentally ended up in the UFC. Watch his fights. This Dagestani could have achieved a lot by training in Russia in Dagestan. But he chose a dumb French room that only recently opened

How tf you put memes n gifs on chat

Yanez vs. Costa
Adrian Yanez, TKO, R2
Reeses Pieces or Dr Pepper, precise punches or precise kicks? I can't wait for this fight. Yanez is more experienced and has fought tougher competition over his career but neither of these guys really has a signature win yet, until somebody wins this fight. Neither of these guys has even attempted a takedown in their 6 combined UFC fights so you can expect these two to stand and bang until somebody falls. Costa has power in both hands and both legs, his head kicks are spectacular. His career average fight time is 1.71 minutes over 7 career fights. I would be absolutely shocked if this fight went to decision. Costa has made the move from Lauzon MMA to Sanford MMA in South Florida so maybe we will see more patience in his striking and an improvement in his energy management so he might be able to fight for 3 rounds but I wont believe that until I see it. My favorite bet for this fight is the FDGTD but I think Yanez superior experience, boxing and cardio make the difference here. The pick is Yanez by 2nd round KO but I also prefer Reeses Pieces so I wouldnt be surprised if Costa caught Yanez with something spectacular.

Cory Sandhagen beat TJ Dillashaw
I'm so tempted to pick TJ, But I can't just for I think Sandhagen has so many physical advantage over him, Dude 5 foot 11 and weighs Approxmatlly the same as me and I'm 72 kg or 160lb, Compare to a guy who can cut to flyweight and is 5 foot 5. Also TJ is off EPO and at 35, Could he gas out if this goes long? That the biggest reason why I can't pick TJ. Also they an argument that Sandhagen is the best standup fighter in the UFC, I don't agree with it, But the point being, He really good on the feet. But at the same time, I'm worried that Sandhagen is over rated, Knocking out Frankie Edgar, And beating Rafael Assushio don't mean anything to me because the old and shot, They robbed Lineker to cut him from the UFC off one lose because he talk **** about the promotion, Look in to it. The Marlon Moreas win was good, But Rob Font  and "Triple C" Henry Cejudo did the same feet, So he's not specle. And Aljamain Sterling submitted him in under a minute. But Aljamain is the legimate champion who also finish  Petr Yan, So you can't hate on him to much.But still getting subbeb in under a minute is not a good lock

Honeslty, If anyone can tell me that TJ will look good physically, I pick him and bet him as I do think he win if he doesn't look old as he does have the skill to beat Sandhagen easily, Sandhagen might have the worst takedown defence for a fighter who ain't a scub and TJ can wrestle, I think if he incorprant wresling into a stand-up game plan, Land well time takedown and with TJ being one of the best striking in the UFC before getting caught, He has the style to beat him

Picking Heinisch vs Imavov for a prop finish at 2.60 (+160). Leaning towards a finish, and at these odds it's certainly where the value is. Money will be in a strong position here.

Hell yeah, what a match-up. I'm not a TJ hater by any means, but I don't see him beating a monster like Sandhagen. Then there's the question of Dillashaw's 2 year layoff and I assume he'll be off the PEDs (or doing a better job disguising them). It will he a highly technical fight and I certainly won't miss it!
