I remember JDS and his fans were 100% convinced that Overeem would get highlight real ko’d if they fought....lol.And finally the fight happened.Unfortunately for JDS he got ko’d.I think that crushed his spirit and he wasn’t the same.
Cain beat the ever living shit out of him, and then the war with Stipe. That's what took out his ability to recover imo.
Both men were already quite a bit removed from their best form for that one. Overeem is different in that he can go in and out of ruts, even after stringing together some losses he's regained his form and gone on a title run in the past. JDS hasn't had a proper winstreak since losing that third Cain fight.
Losing your soul doesn't mean you can't still win a fight. How dumb can you be? Miocic tuned him two years later.
Not really, I thought Stipe won at the time. Close fight, Stipe was definitely winning at some point in the fight I remember that. Cain ended JDS's prime for sure, not Overeem
Cornor can not stop fights in the UFC, it's the referee is responsibility. But yes, Referee should have stopped the fight earlier.
Can we, for a minute take a moment to remember how badass JDS was before those Cain fights? He was so exciting to watch and looked like the best HW ever.
LOL the things AO fanboys try to make up to convince he is somehow relevant. Sorry kid, Cain got there first. Took Junior's soul and probably a decade off his lifespan.
Also I remember JDS really wanted a rematch with Overeem so bad.....Yep hurt him really bad.But why not a second fight to put the final nail in JDS and his fans coffin.
you mean much like Jairzinho did to Overeem? Sorry, kid. Both fighters are declining. You making fun of Junior while Alistair almost got a mouth extension makes you look silly.
Either way he still has the best wins in the UFC HW division 1. Cain 2. Stipe 3. Werdum 4. Carwin 5. Mir 6. Crocop 7. Lewis 8. Nelson 9. Hunt 10. Gonzaga/Struve/Rothwell
Sure they can. Lauzon’s corner stopped a fight not that long ago. edit: tried to post a link but doesn’t seem to work.
