Now that Jacare is in the UFC...

[brazilianblood]

what Anderson is gonna do? move to WW?

jacare basicaly destroyed a tough fighter in Ed Herman, i think he will fight somebody like lombard or weidman

Anderson excuse for not moving to LHW is because he trains with Lyoto and Lil Nog

 

[JoseAldoKillaBe]

Pretty sure Jacare won't be fighting Silva. He also won't be calling out the champ.
So the real question is, what's Jacare going to do ?

 

[The Soothsayer]

Hide TS.

Anderson's cult is coming for you.

 

[Persistant]

Jacare and wiedman please. AS will go to lhw prolly

Ronny Souzy is gonna make some noise at MW. I'd like to see him vs Munoz or even Weidman.

He'll lose, the UFC's top MW fighters have excellent TDD and better striking. Don't let a victory over Ed Herman give you unrealistic delusions.

I don't know. I think Jacare's striking is underrated. He doesn't have a ton of KO's but he seems to hold his own when he's using it to get to the mat.

 

[kimocomplex]

sure makes for some good matchups

 

[Silas1222]

Anderson will be fine

 

[TH1RTE3N]

LOL! Okay. Funny. Ed's never been that tough when facing elite guys. But Jacare is a great addition to the UFC, can't wait.


You must be talking about the Blackhouse association though. Nvm, he's X-Gym.

 

[yCoRrUpT]

Jacare could beat Silva. A good trip and he might have it.

[Te Huna Matata]

Herman was tailor made for Jacare. Tough, but weak TDD. Let's not get ahead of ourselves.

Dude lost to Luke Rockhold. Get real. Silva runs MW. Jacare vs Shields

His loss was controversial. Many thought he actually won. I am one of those people, who thought he landed the more powerful strikes while Luke was flashier. Either way there is no shame in losing a close decision to Rockhold, and getting upkick KO'd by Gegard Mousasi.

Really? REALLY?

I tend to agree that Jacare should have won, but I wasn't shocked the decision went the way it did. Either way, I don't think Jacare is the guy to beat Silva at MW.

Well if anyone beats Anderson, it is probably a ground expert. Jacare isn't a slouch in the stand-up either. I worry for his takedowns, but I feel if he gets one then he could submit Silva.

I get what you're saying, but I think if anyone dethrones Silva it'd be Weidman. Jacare's striking has been improving but Silva's footwork, speed, and accuracy would probably be too much. He'd keep Jacare on the outside and destroy on the feet. I could certainly see Souza making it interesting if he could get a takedown or two, but Silva is real good at neutralizing his opponents top game and not allowing them to find openings. It'd look a lot like the Maia/Leites fights IMO.
