I'm leaning towards Cody, he is truly a beast. But TJ is a beast in his own right and I think he has a bit more firepower than Dom has. Should be a great fight.
Liniker moved up a weight class. He's power isn't as big against bigger fighters.
What leaks?
I think it just shows Dillashaw's great defense and toughness if anything.
Lineker is still very powerful at BW. KOd those two taller guys, had Dodson backing up the entire fight, had Dillashaw retreating toward the end of the fight.
Lineker doesn't even have close to the movement that cody has. He also has awful takedown defense
Cody wins the same way he beat Cruz. Landing the harder shots and making the wrestling a non factor
Plus the X factor is that Cody has already knocked out TJ before so he will bring in a shit ton of confidence into the cage.
The only way TJ could win is by wrestlefuck and I just dont see that happening
Cruz made TJ miss all night when they fought.
Dillashaw is a world beater against flat footed strikers. Cruz thrives as well against plodders. Both showed to be significantly less effective against people who are neither brawlers, nor stereotypical Muay Thai plodders. Iirc Joe Soto of all people made TJ whiff a lot at the beginning of their fight by employing basic head movement.Lineker doesn't even have close to the movement that cody has. He also has awful takedown defense

Cody has owned him in training when TJ was with TAM, in the sparring and the wrestling.
He always has hard nipple lolTJ has hard nipples in that pic. Just saying
I don't know about that. The UFC is on the business of selling shit and they can sell this shit easy. Drama and all the bs will only add spectators and create an even better story.The little snake will not fight for a UFC title in 2017. He is talking all kinds of shit about his employer.
Completely agree. Lineker is a below average version of Garbrandt though which makes me think that this will be very close. Given the fact that TJ has had the opportunity to re-watch DC v CG I think he will win. Purely because he may not fall into the same trap that DC did (coming in and letting CG counter punch/kick him).Dillashaw showed amazing striking and wrestling against Lineker, somene known for being a power puncher. He dominated him.
Neo-Garbrandt found a way to beat Cruz, something TJ couldn't do. I honestly don't know who'd win, but I lean toward Dillashaw since he's shown himself able to handle power punchers. Cody is much more than that, though.
So goodThe fans.
