Dennis Siver vs Edson Barboza

[LindyBrah]

A tragedy we never got to see this taekwondo striking masterpiece. It would’ve set the record for most spinning back kicks in a single bout. Someone’s liver or calves were going to be destroyed by the end.

Siver was a matchmakers delight!

Very entertaining fighter!

This would have been a banger - but then, I would say that

When I started reading this forum I was surprised there was another avowed Siver fan. Absolute beast in his prime. Ended the Sotiropoulos hype train. Colin unfortunately stymied all that

What a great matchup this would have been. Barboza via length and spinning kick to the ribs

Is Siver still active? They can maybe have it outside UFC when Barboza is a free agent.

Pretty sure he hasn't fought in like 5+ years.

Edson would have styled on Siver at any time. Kind of a mismatch.

As far as strikers goes, the ones who gave Edson problems were the pressure strikers. The dudes who had good cardio, chin and could hold their own in the pocket.

Siver wasn't that. Mean spinning back kick though.

Conor was fluid back in the day. Now he is stuck in mud. Like, really stuck.

For sure

Went from a fluid multi-faceted striker to a flat footed puncher

He's done
