His recent win over Miocic was indeed impressive, and the fact that he did it @ 39 yrs old is pretty crazy...
A legit Dare-2-Be-Great Move.
tbh I didnt see it coming, thought Strikeforce DC would have been game vs Miocic, but UFC DC was so far out of his [physical] prime, that it had to be considered a legit upset... But, realistically, Miocic was not a huge step-up in competition...
Now...On the other side, if you think about it... his early win over Barnett is perhaps crazier... and perhaps an even greater upset...
See: DC was still unknown, techically a rookie, and Barnett was a huge step-up in competition.
Barnett was on a great run, managed to reach the top3 in Pride..
Miocic could have broken into the top 3, but that´s not a lock, competition back then @ HW was much more legit imo...
The 2 wins are impressive, would be like splittin´hairs... But my choice is the one over Barnett.
What U say?
