MasterLeader Posted January 26, 2018 Report Share Posted January 26, 2018 Who wins & how? http://mmajunkie.com/2018/01/stipe-miocic-vs-daniel-cormier-showdown-ufc-226-the-ultimate-fighter Im gonna go with D.C. but tough call! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeonStolz Posted January 26, 2018 Report Share Posted January 26, 2018 Stipe is going to be a giant compared to DC. I don't think DC will get it to the ground so I'll go with Stipe by TKO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLP Posted January 26, 2018 Report Share Posted January 26, 2018 A huge fight that's good for both divisions. I'm going with Stipe, but its a close fight and I could definitely see myself changing my pick as we get closer to the fight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timqwe Posted January 26, 2018 Report Share Posted January 26, 2018 I think it's an incredibelly easy match for Stipe. He has at least 15lbs in weight, the better boxing, the better athleticism, less wear an tear and hits harder 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has at least 15lbs in weight, the better boxing, the better athleticism, less wear an tear and hits harder Yeah but Miocic thrives on being the quicker fighter and I think they’ll be evenly matched. DC will weigh in at around 230 so not a massive weight difference and I reckon the question is whether DC can take the fight to the ground before getting KO’d which I reckon he can.

Nganou, JDS and Reem were all quicker. And he out gameplanned all those guys. And while I admit Stipe hasn't been tested against high level wrestlers, no one has beaten him wrestlingwise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The1rstSaint Posted January 27, 2018 Report Share Posted January 27, 2018 I got Miocic by UD. I hope this doesn't mean Cain is not coming back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 27, 2018 Report Share Posted January 27, 2018 I think Miocic takes this, I think he is a bad match up for DC and I'll go with 3rd round TKO. Fucking love that this is happening! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigLarry Posted January 27, 2018 Report Share Posted January 27, 2018 As much as I like DC but I have to go with Stipe, he is just better, and I really can't wait for this fight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacman Posted January 27, 2018 Report Share Posted January 27, 2018 I will go with DC. He has the better wrestling and cardio. And while he might not get the takedowns early I think Stipe will eventually tire and DC will take over. Its a really tough call though. DC might get KOd in the first couple rounds as well. Either way thats a great fight that I cant wait for. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stpierrecanada Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 Super close, I'll lean slightly in DC's favour though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjornmma1 Posted February 2, 2018 Report Share Posted February 2, 2018 A happy Cormier, is a dangerous Cormier! I see him getting the win, tear up and retire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik Posted February 4, 2018 Report Share Posted February 4, 2018 I just like all the pre-Stipe fight predictions, always people thinking he's going to lose but the guy just doesn't lose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aylib Posted February 4, 2018 Report Share Posted February 4, 2018 Voted Stipe, as I think he is better on the feet and has more power. Wrestling would be the big question mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed - apart from the Overeem fight is been ages since Ive backed Stipe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjornmma1 Posted February 4, 2018 Report Share Posted February 4, 2018 I just like all the pre-Stipe fight predictions, always people thinking he's going to lose but the guy just doesn't lose. He is like an Audi RS6; does not per se look like a beast/killer at first sight, but gets the job done every damn time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CopingMechanism Posted February 7, 2018 Report Share Posted February 7, 2018 A happy Cormier, is a dangerous Cormier! I see him getting the win, tear up and retire. I really hope this is how it goes, have always liked DC My brain is leaning more to the stipe UD though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikkitakeda Posted February 7, 2018 Report Share Posted February 7, 2018 I will go with DC. He has the better wrestling and cardio.

Either way thats a great fight that I cant wait for. Did you really say DC has better Cardio than Miocic? DC has been gassed after 1 round and typically always is if gets close to end of the 3rd round. He keeps going but get super slow and takes super deep breaths; while Miocic is known for his cardio and not known for it as a big man but known for it in general. Like I don't care who you pick or who anyone picks in this fight or really any fight, but that so isn't accurate. Will be a fight I'll enjoy watching; even though I will probably have to watch it after the event happens as I will be working during the fight.
