DC: I’ll crack him upside the head

[dfoster]

At the 1:55 mark:
“There are some things that he does when he gets in clinch position.. his hands low. I’ll crack him upside the head ... with that big old face of his...”

You think this is possible? Actually I think it’s DC that’s vulnerable in the close up positions because Stipe has close range KO power.

Interesting to see how this will play out but still not too smart of DC to give away part of his game plan for feeling good in the moment. Pride will get you every time.

Sadly, I think he will. Rooting for Stipe though.

I don't see DC winning this via KO, especially after Ngannou not being able to lay him out landing flush.

That said, if Cormier can beat him to the punch, it may set up his grappling.

Its not really giving anythign away that is useful.

Habits are habits. and geting rid of instictive movemnts is too dififcult to do now, and for stipe to focus on this throwaway mini reveal of ONE of many things DC will do, woudl mean DC in stipe head.

DC is a clever guy, dont worry,. although i have DC losing.

Don't know why everyone's keeps saying stipe has close range power. He's got power, but it's not any better close. Most of the time when he hurts his opponents he is switching and throwing a 1-2

DCs got some power shots. Who knows. Although Stipe held up well against Ngannou's striking, he got dropped by a less powerful punch from Overeem....

I know that Reem is a legit dangerous fighter and nothing to scoff at but that gif still cracks me up.

that's a good example of "getting caught sleeping"..

stipe was fighting way too casually because reem was running and covering up a lot.

he let his guard down and got caught clean with his feet planted.

on second look, he actually got his right up to try to defend the shot, lousy defense though.

 

[Spycho]

I know the odds are very slim but just how sweet would it be if Stipe flatlines him with a left highkick?

 

[notori0us1]

DC has been feeling himself too much lately. Stipe will humble him.

ROFL at the way Stipe planked.

 

[FleximusPrime]

DC is not known for his KO game that being said DCs ground game is so elite that if he gets you down its gonna be a long night for whoever hes fighting.

The way he fell down in that gif is hilarious for some reason.

Yup he ate those shots from Francis, also ppl forget the fact that Stipe went toe to toe with Mark Hunt and won

He better not cry if he loses for talking shit like that.

Didn't see it coming... against Francis he saw it all coming, think DCs speed may be a factor tonight for sure

 

[cshireman4]

He isn’t stopping him from there, but I’m sure he’ll land a few when he starts spamming uppercuts from the clinch. I’m thinking Stipe will use his footwork to walk DC into a big right hand as he tries to close the distance. Or that’s what I’m hoping at least.

DC couldn't KO Frank Mir let's be real
