cain and cormier had a mutual opponent in Bigfoot and Cormier drubbed him even worse than Cain did in my opinion. cain's faced more significant competition, to be sure...but barnett vs. cormier and bigfoot vs. cormier have truly shown that he is top of the heap at heavyweight. not many people beat those guys.
Cormier has the pedigree to be elite but lets see how he does in the octagon before we declare the world beater is all I'm sayin.
Yeah if thats all Cormier is bringing to the ufc he aint gonna do well against any top10 Hw.
So many fails in just one post, unbelievable. DC beat Monson, Bigfoot and Barnett and he destroyed every single opponent he has ever faced. It's not my fault that yesterdays Strikeforce event was the first and only you have ever watched.
I seriously wouldn't consider Barnett a top 10 HW, everyone is hung up on his Pride days, but that was steroid-powered Barnett, without the juice he's nothing special
I was not impressed with DC at all. He continues to fight little to no skill fighters that make him look like the second coming of Fedor. I think his movement is nothing to write home about and his striking is definitely not crisp top tier quality. Daniel Cormier is highly over-rated and without a doubt will suffer quite a few losses in the ufc hw division. His defense also is horrible, can't even keep his hands up to protect his face...albiet not needed with the guy he was facing.
I think DC is one of the best at HW! But don't try to compaire dominating and finnishing a nobody to dominating the guys GSP does! If you honestly believe the GSP would'nt murder some randum scrub from europe I can't help you!This is just a silly post. He dominated the entire fight and he didn't look that good?
Ok so since GSP does the same fucking thing every fight but WITHOUT any finishes, he's amazing right?
Your logic is mind blowing. And Frank Mir will not have a chance in hell vs DC.
He will take Mir down and use his superior top game and its over. Frank got smoked by Lesnar and Carwin, what gives you any insight that Daniel Cormier will have any problem with him? Catching DC in a submission? Hardly.
Before Mir's lucky scramble with Big Nog he was losing the fight to Nog's old ass.
Has to be trolling!:redface: Barnett and Bigfoot and Monson are no skill fighters? Humm, is embarrassing to say so much crap in so few words
Cormier fought "safe" against Staring
It seems its okay when GSP fights "safe"
But when someone else does it.... their performance is deemed "weak" and they are all "hype"
Double Standards gonna Double Standards
He may be still top 10 HW, but he didn't look so great like everyone always says.
He was 100% concentrated and stuff, got a shitty oponent (yeah, noone else wanted to fight him, not his fault) who was supposed to have nice standup (and didn't) and, though it was one-sided, it wasn't as masterful as it should have been according to the hype.
Barnett was sick and still dismantled the guy in the 1st. Same as Mousasi. And Jacare.
I think Mir will actually cause some problems for Cormier, maybe even Big Nog 2 replay will happen. Konckdown and then sub. If not, Jon Jones will 100% crush DC if he makes the weight.
