I guess so. But wasn't Wand also in the hospital during his time off...?? I never got full details on that whole thing but remember hearing he was in bad condition at one point...
ya, thats right. i cant remember why, either.
He looks worse physically (althoh better than last year when Crocop wanted him.
I just have formed a belief that we, in this sport, dont respect concussions and brain damage enough. Watching a guy like Arlovski seemingly recover his chin over time showed me that maybe its just a case of not enough time off after a big KO (and who knows how hard they are sparring in their gyms) Wand had a glass chin towards the end, but he fought Hendo a few months after Crocop KOd him, and then Chuck that same year! Really unsafe, imo. Then, his chin seemed a lot better against Stann, well, he hadnt been knocked flat for a few years, since Leben, i think.
We will see. I think he is going to look like shit, but his chin should hold up to Sonnen's punching, I would hope anyways.
Sonnen, if he had any heart, would take this walking away, but he folds if a good one lands, so we will see.
