Media Common Opponent predicts Islam vs Dariush

He said Islam more likely wins. That can't mean he feels Dariush is the overall better fighter

Did you watch the video that you started a thread about? He specifically breaks down why he thinks Islam will win, so I'm not sure why you're guessing.

He said dariush has better bjj and more dangerous striking, but Islam has better wrestling and is smarter. He then clearly says he picks Islam to win because Islam is smarter and will likely just stay outside of range and look for moments to use his wrestling in the clinch.

I’m surprised Daruish has come as far as he has with how naturally unathletic he clearly is. Islam wins convincingly.

It's actually quite commendable.
The best chance Dariuish has at becoming 155lb champ is to take a trip to CERN and jump in the LHC or if any one has a time machine that can send him back to when Jens Pulver was champ then he'd have a great shot.
 
This guy from Dariush's camp is very confident that Dariush will win :rolleyes:

this!
and its also kind of what i think, Dariush better BJJ skills with powerful strikes and a wilder approach.
Islam more wrestling based with smart outpointing stand up...
Im looking very forward to this fight!
 
I think Beneils route is to hit him with something wild on the feet. If it's a controlled measure fight Islam wins. I believe islam to have the big wrestling advantage, and will likely be in top position for most if not all grappling exchanges. and his kick boxing has come along enough that a standard engagement on the feet likely isn't going to find his chin strongly enough. Hope Beneil dosen't come in fighting like he did against Tony as he'll lose imo. Even if if he comes in hot looking for islams chin I still don't think it's going to help much. Islam generally get the positions he wants regardless of what his opponents are trying.
 
Common opponents you have to give the nod to Dariush but then you'll hear excuses like they were green when they fought Dariush

As soon as I saw who made the thread I knew the prediction. So I didn’t bother reading the OP. And if I bet on every fight that a common opponent or pro predicted. I’d be lucky if I broke even at this point.

I’ll just do my own predictions which seem to be as good as anybody else’s a lot of the time. As long as I keep emotion out of the equation. Something the TS has absolutely no concept of.

This is a pretty emotional post my guy
