Gastelum is only 24 years old?!?

[robiscus]

Consider that. The kid dismantled Johnny Hendricks tonight and he's only that old. Nine UFC bouts against legitimate contenders when he was younger than that.

He's got half a decade of prime years ahead of him. And, he hasn't been thrown forward to a championship bout (yet) like Jones was when he was the same age. Hendricks had zero answers for his aggression in that bout.

I think we're going to see some good things from Gastelum.

 

[loyalyolayal]

He's got that Noguiera genes.

 

[Rubberchin]

He's very good

 

[The Beast Within]

and he just got 2 losses by split, 1 of them against the next WW champ

 

[CountOfSoCal]

Yep, which is hilarious considering how many people wrote him off after the Magny fight. He just turned 24, I think, and JUST switched to Kings MMA. This was his second camp with them, and he looked great. He was very light on his feet, kept up a good pace, and threw very fluid combos that he strung along nicely.

He'll a contender for a long time.

 

[M Raid K]

Yes, he somehow is. I wouldn't give him title shot right now though. The winner of Maia-Condit or DHK-Means works well.

 

[CerebralKnievel]

Well, he was 19 or 20 on TUF, so yes.

Little Cain

Future Mexican GOAT. Cain move over.

 

[FastTracker]

Cordeiro is a beast, look at Werdum now, has insane striking (forget about the stipe ko) . Kelvin was all over Hendricks with that 1-2, i'm really looking forward to his next fight.

Future Mexican GOAT. Cain move over.

Kelvin spanish >>>>> Cain spanish

 

[reemmachine81]

am i the only one who thought jonny looked like a crack head....

 

[Zerkalo.]

He looked amazing in this fight. Powerful, fast, aggressive. Future contender imo.

 

[GSPenn1991]

am i the only one who thought jonny looked like a crack head....

Yeah, he looks weird with out the beard. Kind of bug eyed. Grow that beard back!

 

[ZackZed]

He is everything Sage was supposed to be. Too bad he doesn't have the hype tho. He's a stud.

What happened to Johny?
Former Champ and people still argue he beat GSP..
And now...
Too much burgers?

He changed camps and maybe his body just can't handle the weight cut anymore.

 

[Hfxtc]

He should retire. He looked awful.

 

[Negative Zero]

Been saying for a while Gastelum is the real deal.

 

[elreece]

I did not know that, by looking at him I was thinking early 30's fucker looks old.
