Can Stipe crack top 5 ?

[BOTTICELLI]

I think so, I might take him over Travis Browne ....


We haven't even seen his skills yet.

 

[DeusExMachida]

He's looked very impressive in his last three bouts, so who knows. But yeah, I think he has top 5 skills.

 

[Lito Lapida]

hell yeah! I'm a big fan now after he beat a LHW

Chubby MW more like.

Though I do agree that Stipe has real good skills, and athleticism. Don't want them to rush him though.

 

[Nameless Ghoul]

Probably, I'd move him ahead of Bigfoot and Browne

 

[countswagula]

Depends on his opponents

 

[rac2]

feed hendo to him next.

 

[The Taxman]

I'd normally say yes, but that Struve loss is a real bad blemish on his record. Nothing personal against Struve, he is just the HW gatekeeper, and he didn't even lose to Struve by sub.

Top 10, for sure. Top 5 is stretching it right now imo. Hopefully we get the JDS fight now

 

[Warraw]

He's in top5@least.

 

[SalvadorAllende]

He seems to be still improving so IMO yes.

 

[Emjay]

Rankings don't matter

 

[Ohioan]

Top five, for sure. He will struggle mightily against JDS, however, not to mention Brown Pride.

 

[MMAFan232]

I think so. Hes got a ton of potential . Obviously an athletic heavyweight with both solid wrestling and boxing. I think people put too much weight into the struve loss as he was still pretty green. I would take him over struve now easy

 

[O H]

He already is top 5
Overeem, Barnett and Bigfoot are easy wins for hin

 

[TX Fighter]

Cain
Jds
Werdum
Bigfoot
Reem

All better than stipe

 

[O H]

Cain
Jds
Werdum
Bigfoot
Reem

All better than stipe

Stipe would annihilate Alistair and Bigfoot. Werdum would be a good fight


Stipe is the biggest threat to Cain in the sport
