Stipe Miocic looking small and deflated ahead of 241

[00 Buck]

Thats just a bad downward angle IMO.

These are from the past week too

LOL @ those sideburns!

 

[Black Paladin]

DC is a great fighter but he is, no nice way of saying this, fat.

His cardio may be compromised, if Stipe can take the fight into the deep end, he has a great shot of winning.

"Big-boned!"--Cartman

 

[ScarfaceMasdival]

It's not like size helped him the first fight. He needs to learn how to stop dropping his hands all the time.

 

[Furious77]

Stipe will wrestle DC

DC will be praying that he does.

LOL @ those sideburns!

1999 says hi to stipe

 

[wearetheromans]

Looking lean and mean. His cardio is probably the best its ever been.

He's like a machine. Probably gonna make DC eat a bean. Will change his nickname to the Dean of mean.

 

[awymore]

The money fight for Stipe after this, assuming he wins, is Jones. Maybe he's shedding some weight in order to convince Jones to move up.

 

[ZekaPeka]

He looks good, like in early days.

 

[Touch of Death]

you see him looking gassed during fights?

Yes against Jones the first fight for sure but could be weight-cut related.

Against Gus, he was less fatigued which was impressive.

Against Barnett, the only other fight he has had that has gone 25 minutes, his output dropped dramatically.

And that was at HW when he was a lot younger.

He looks lighter than usual and is known for his great cardio..

See my above post.

You’re talking to a guy who just started watching and still believes the better looking body wins.

Your username....

Enough said.

Atleast he's 6'4 or 6'5" .. close to Sherdog average at 6'6

 

[JudoThrowFiasco]

He's never been overly built - he's natural framed heavyweight. He's pretty friggen strong too - remembering him being able to grip and hold DC's wrists in the clinch

 

[Final Say]

Looks like he has the frame of a 185er

LHW coming soon?

Hard to believe he weighs 245 lbs looking at that pic. He must just have a really heavy frame because he's not that well muscled.

hes one of those guys that looks pretty average from a distance, and seems gigantic when youre right next to him. hes so well proportioned that hes deceivingly big until hes right up on you

absolutely no chance he makes 205.

 

[Harlekin]

Over a year layoff -> less muscle
Over a year older -> less muscle
Fatherhood -> less testosteron -> less muscle

Or maybe he just goes for speed or both

The dean of bean

You aren’t taking your suspension too well.

So who reported me? Lol man a bunch of little girls in here

 

[Dbreiden83080]

He is a HW that cuts zero weight so obviously he Is not going to be deflated LOL.. Fucking kidding me.

 

[theTKDguy]

looks like 2012 stipe. if he fights with the right gameplan, he can ruin dc, doubt he ko's him like that tho. just jab his face off and leg kicks en route to a dec.
i'm torn about this fight again fuckk

I want to see a battle. No 1st round stoppage BS.. I want to see these 2 great fighters have a HW classic.

Make it worth my 60 bucks LOL..

very possible. dc and his team know it'll be a much harder fight cause it'll be. only certainty is it won't end via sub imho.
