Bisping breaks down Rockhold vs Yoel Romero

[Arm Barbarian]

Left Hook Larry saying that Luke, although super well-rounded, has a tendency to leave his chin up in the air in exchanges.

He says Yoel has the ability to find chins, and knock folks out.

He's leaning towards Romero for this reason, as well as Romeros ability to get inside and close the distance any time he chooses.

But says he is ROOTING for Rockhold over Yoel, because he actually dislikes Luke less out of the two. Says Yoel is a roiding cheater with a low moral compass. lol

Bisping taking shots at both guys here....Never misses a moment to toss out a barb or two. Says Luke is "weird." haha

 

[Dead Kennedy]

Fuck even Branch was lighting him up on the feet. Yoel should be able to do the same and then some...

I appreciate guys like you who write down the cliffs so the people who don't feel like listening to the whole thing or don't have the time will have a general idea.

 

[Soul On Ice]

Betting Ping's train of thought..."If Luke beats him it's kinda like I beat him too because I beat Luke"

Yeah I listened to that last night, it was kinda funny when he said something like "my good buddy Romero and my other buddy Rockhold"

I remember watching the Branch fight with my lil brother and we were like "oh shit" when David started tagging him but I was surprised Luke recovered and turned it around

Branch had the right gameplan, but he isn't a knockout artist and Luke was just the stronger guy at the end of the day with a terrific ground game

Both guys have their weaknesses so it'll come down to who will take advantage of those better. Luke needs to be careful, on point, and chin DOWN here

I'll be checking in on the pbp but unfortunately for me the price just isn't worth the only fight I'm truly interested in

Yeah, Bisping even mentions that - Says Luke ate like 5 punches on the fence vs Branch, and that he or Yoel would only need ONE. hahaha

Luke has the more well-rounded skill-set, but if Romero clips him, he's taking a nap.

 

[Gangstub]

This fight is tough as hell to call.

Rockhold's chin -

Yoel's cardio -

Rockholds Top Game +

Yoel's explosiveness +

 

[NorrisB]

Romero should pop any day, Bisping nailed it.

 

[Kowboy On Sherdog]

Interesting fight... Not sure who to pick yet. Going with Rockhold if he can drag him into deep water. But I am not opposed to an explosive Yoel knockout.

 

[Ozze]

Tough fight. Leaning towards Rockhold.

 

[HaulParris]

Good match-up. I think Yoel wins by KO round 3-4.

Well, he is right you know.

Yeah, I'm thinking late 2nd or 3rd round he finds that shut-off switch and makes Luke go sleepy-time.

 

[IDGETKTFO]

Nah, 1st or 2nd maybe. Aftert that i think he would be too gassed, and most likely Luke will be winning .

Certainly possible, but Yoel has shown an ability to knock mo-foz senseless even when seemingly gassed.

Luke is going to have to keep that chin down for the full 5, or finish him imo.

Branch is a great technical striker though, wasn't he a short notice replacement as well?

 

[PeterGriffin]

I really hope when Bisping does call it a day (in terms of fighting), the UFC uses him as a color-commentator/play-by-play caller. He knows the fight game very well, and he can be humorous on the mic.

If Rockhold wins, he'll fight Whittaker. If Rockhold loses, I can see the rubber match between the two as Bisping's final fight.

Why not go to Buffalo wild wings? Just order a cheap meal like appetizers for 10 bucks and watch.

Yeah, Bisping is a pretty funny dude. He's pretty quick-witted.
