2003 Couture vs 2022 Glover

[wrestlefan]

I think Couture would take this.

 

[315MMAFighter]

Glover likes when the fight goes to the ground and Randy will take you down to gnp you so it could be a dangerous fight for Randy imo

 

[Ares Black]

Any version of Teixeira destroys any version of Couture.

 

[BjPenn2017]

2003 Couture probably, I could definitely see him grinding him out and beating him up like Corey Anderson did.

 

[Dorkman]

I'd probably lean towards randy. But would be a fun one. Both are tough career long gamers.

 

[Travis Alexander]

Randy would take it via bad matchup for Glover in particular imo.

Baby Teixeira vs Gonzaga Couture?

 

[BrockLesnarsTurtleBack]

2003 Randy doesn't crack the UFC roster in 2022.

You grossly overstimate the depth of either the UFC HW or LHW roster lol.

 

[13Seconds]

Glover does some evil things to Couture

 

[bleeder]

idk probably couture. would've been a badass fight 20 years ago.

 

[NoSmilez]

Randy in 2003 wasn't so natural but roughly same age as Glover. Glover is a different animal though. He started his training in the US. He isn't a regular Brazilian fighter. I don't think he even competed in any gi and he prefers top position. It all depends if Randy can take him down.

 

[HuskySamoan]

I think Randy takes it, better cardio, stronger in the clinch, can dictate where the fight goes pretty definitively if the fight makes it out of the 2nd round. Randy is naturally the faster guy too, Glover is really slow. Glovers power and aggression would be an issue in the early but outside of that its clearly Randys fight to me. Glover is a great grappler but not off his back and hed need to drop Couture to get ontop realistically.

The sport may have evolved but Randy wouldnt be an undersized LHW. His athletic pedigree olympic alternate in greco, D1 all American in freestyle and an amateur boxer for the US military really still holds up in this era, especially at LHW.

 

[VinceArch]

I think Glover puts Randy's lights out fairly quickly.

 

[Jewish Lightning]

Glover got smoked by Phil Davis and Cory Anderson. Prime Handy would put hands on him and beat the current dinosauric fossil known as Glover like he stole something.

Smh based on what lol

 

[Final Say]

You grossly overstimate the depth of either the UFC HW or LHW roster lol.

He has no chance at heavyweight

 

[VinceArch]

Smh based on what lol

Based on Glover hitting like a mac truck and 2003 Randy being overwhelmed by punches from both Ricco and Barnett.

 

[HI SCOTT NEWMAN]

I would take Glover in that one

Give me a break do you actually watch the fights? The question wasn't prime Glover vs prime Randy. It was Glover of today who got mopped by Phil Davis and Cory Anderdon vs prime Randy. Glover of today is slow and couldn't match Handys pace and cardio and would be getting wrestled and worked round after round.
