I love stipe. But looking at his record you could call it a bit overated. Werdum was a pretty good win however werdum brawling with his chin open was a bit weird. Overeem is Overeem who went for the sub instead of flat lining him with gnp. Junior was a old jds. And francis was the biggest hype train ever. I won 500 off stipe that fight. If he beats DC that is huge for me.
I don’t think Stipe’s record is overrated at all. It’s not on par with Fedor or Noguiera’s resumés in regards to a goat discussion, but it’s pretty solid none the less. Stip has b level wins Arlovski-Hunt-Nelson-JDS2, and a level wins over Overeem-Werdum-Ngannou. He also has a good performance in an a level loss to JDS. Ngannou was worthy of freight train hype, too. Dude wrecked Arlovski, Overeem and Blaydes.
If Stipe wins this fight with DC, some people are going to say it’s because DC was too old or too damaged from the second Jones fight or DC wasn’t proven at heavyweight.
If Stipe wins this fight, it surely helps his record but make no mistake, Stipe’s record as it stands is really solid.
