@rah I’d go with chiesa. I don’t know how Buckley will make 170 in short notice + I think chiesas grinding wrestling style will take its toll on Buckley. I’m not a fan of chiesa and I think he’s actually nearing the end of his career, but I think he’s just gonna grind out buckley. Yeah, he looked good against duraev but Duraevs wrestling really isn’t that good. He’s lost too many times to this style before that I think he will lose this one

I wish Burns could earn a title shot still, kinda lame how Colby locked for title shot despite not doing much in the wins department , If Burns just smokes Masvidal, explain to me beside the obvious reason money that Colby should get one , and not Burns 

Also, Burns ususlly have great fight not like Belal, so they’re no boring excuse

170 on short notice? No that does not sound good 

Why would he take that fight? Makes no sense

Sherman probably took the fight because he wants his paycheck. He’s a guy who only fights for money

@rah yeah I’m not sure. I know he was planning to go down to 170 next fight regardless but on short notice seems crazy. Unless he’s been keeping his weight low and planning to stay ready. He’s been at XC the past month with Curtis and Sean so maybe they put his name in a hat and he got chosen to take the fight

Williams is a very interesting Heavyweight, great wrestling and is very explosive. That should be plenty to beat Sherman who’s in the ufc for a paycheck

I think it will be an easy win because Rosas has great wrestling and submission skills.
