Remember the hype behind Glover here?

He was the Brazilian Chuck Liddell.
 
I still don't understand how he's a favorite over Rashad. I mean, I'm not guaranteeing an Evans victory, but "Suga" should be a -215 favorite.
 
I knew exactly nothing about him before he came over so I can't say I was on the train.

He's still a good fighter though. No need to diss the guy.

Lol no

Glover had hype because of his record pre UFC and he hit hard. Cool name helped.
 
Hype was a bit too strong, but not fully unwarranted. He's easily one of the best LHWs in the world.

Only fight he looked very bad in was against Phil Davis (who looked bad against Rashad).
 
If Rashad comes in on his A-game and focused, he beats Glover with ease.

If the shitty Rashad shows up - Glover decisions him.
 
Yes and it's still real to me damnit.

He may not be champ, but he's a solid top 5 fighter and a great guy. Definitely beating Rashad "glass chin and mind" Evans.
 
Glover is one of the most gifted fighter at LHW...His issue is mental stiffness and training discipline...He has fights where he just seems to dominate so easily but just doesn't seem to want to finish, and fights where it seems he just lacks proper preparation and has just a few flashes of brilliance...
 
Glover is not really proven any worse than Gus or Rumble, I don't see what there is to laugh about.
 
Lol glover so stiff, looked terrible against jones and phil. Rashad going to sleep though.
 
What are you saying? He's a joke because he didn't starch Jones? He has proven to be one of the best fighters in the world at his weight class and he fought for the belt, which would indicate that the hype was at least largely warranted unlike with, say, Kid Yammamoto or Hatsu Hioki.

Fans should have stuck with him. Ill always be a fan of his.
 
hype? Glover was stuck in that category with guys like Maia and Rick Story

guys who are extremly capable but are always overlooked and never hyped
did you not see the fucking buildup for Glover vs OSP it looked like they expected OSP to run through him
