How will Cowboy vs Cote go?

[thehyena]

I have seen a lot of sherdogers think Cote is just too big and strong for Cowboy.
He is bigger but is a little soft around the middle. Cowboy at 170 will be able to keep some of the body fat around his soft liver. I think the extra 15 pounds he is allowed to keep may protect him vs Cote body punches. I see Cowboy being 1 of the faster strikers now at 170 and with his power kicks to keep Cote at a distance.
Cowbow wins by stun from kick then a rear naked choke round 2.
If it happens I would like to see him vs the loser of the main event as he try's to climb the 170 division.

it's not for the title or the main event, so cowby will win

 

[When DC Cries]

They need to let cowboy fight with his hat on

 

[ARONAbeetFEDOR]

Cowboy by sub or decision.

 

[BigTruck]

Yeah!

If Cowboy doesn't stick and move, this could be the fight where his chin gets cracked.

Côte has heavy hands, and a good chin. If he comes out aggressive, it could be a short night for Cowboy.

 

[Tormund]

Cowboy looks so fragile at WW, Cote will likely give him the rag doll treatment and TKO him late, Cote has an iron chin he isn't going to be stunned by the Donald.

 

[chinarice]

Taking Cote. I think he will hurt Cowboy and swarm him for a tko

 

[NightwingBJJ]

Cowboy gets TKO'D

 

[Slapchoppin]

Cote is a former MW with a granite chin

Cowboy is a LW

Cote by decision or KO

 

[Sampsonsimpson]

I think Côte will KO Cerrone. Côte has power in his hands and Cerrone tends to get hit with at least a few flush shots to the chin in his fights. Seems like a recipe for disaster if you are Cerrone, but we'll see.

Cote taking a Cowboy kick to the head will be atleast stunned.
Kicks like a horse.

 

[M Raid K]

Patrick Cote by 2nd round TKO. Cerrone is declining physically and he's not good under pressure (Cote brings the pressure every time).

Cote taking a Cowboy kick to the head will be atleast stunned.

didn't you see the TUF season he was on?

Cote eats horse

Cowboy has nothing for him

 

[The guest]

Very poorly for Cowboy. First round KO by Cote.

I like how this fight is so split on who will win.. It's a great matchup of fighters.

Côte fought for Anderson's strap at UFC 90. He came down on his leg and it snapped losing by tko. He took big shots from him and didn't fold. He has taken mw and lhw shots and shown a good chin. He's always had a so so physique that means nothing.

Cerrone is a lw who went to ww because the champ destroyed him. He isn't going to muscle a natural mw around or submit him. He has no power for Côte that would put him in danger of being hurt. I don't see how cowboy wins.

If Côte wasn't so unknown and cowboy being somewhat a fan favorite the odds would be in Cote's favor.

 

[Captain Herb]

I was thinking Cote when I saw he was the underdog several weeks ago.

 

[Kingofthestreets]

Just my feeling, cowboy never loses these types of fights; likley outpointa cote but could also win by tko or ko

What evidence is there that he looks fragile? He ate those knees and punches from Oliveira without much issue.
