Stipe Miocic VS F

I think Maldonado is gonna lose a pretty brutal fight
 
I thought Maldonado fights at LHW? Did I miss him moving up to HW recently or something? He's gonna be used as a punching bag in this fight and I don't even like Stipe..
 
I'll take Fabio, haven't really been impressed with Stipe so have no reason to really pick him. Ultimately I don't really care, card is terrible and I don't even know if I can watch it, is it a fight pass card? I assume so.
 
PLEASE let this be a slugfest, Dana pay Stipe $$$ not to take it to the ground
 
I'll be rooting for Maldonado, but we remember what happened the last time a Brazilian fought a Croatian from the upper division as a replacement...
 
Stipe by UD but god damn would I love to see Fabio pull this off somehow
 
Can't believe this is a real fight. Maldonado has more heart than brains here and his management should know better than to send a flabby 205er up to fight a crisp and conditioned heavyweight. I see a very one-sided UD with Fabio looking like he did after Glover had his way with him.

just leaving this here.

Maldonado can hurt Stipe for sure.

Dumbest post of the day goes to you. Congratulations. It's early but you've got it locked down.

Maldonado virtually has no puncher's chance.
 
Holy shit.. One of the biggest mismatches in recent ufc history.

Jones/Sonnen comes to mind
Silva/Bonnar does too

But yeah, it is a mismatch. But Maldonado can beat anyone because he can take everything they have and survive. If Glover couldn't finish him, I don't see Stipe doing it, and if he gasses going for the finish, Fabio could finish him.

My point is that Miocic is a chinny HW (I know, they are HWs, but still plenty of tough fighters there). Sorry if you're mad about it. Getting stopped by Struve like that, plus being extremely tentative against Gonzaga.... the guy clearly doesn't react well when hit.

Maldonado may not have 1 punck KO power like other LHW and HW fighters, but certainly hits hard and his cardio isn't as bad as people make it to be... If he can survive the early rounds I can see him outlasting Stipe in the end and hurting him.
 
Lol a guy who is a small LHW (prob could make mw) is being used as a punching bag for the bigger stronger HW

Yeah, but lets not forget Struve jammed his thumb in Stipe's eye and Stipe slipped before he got tagged. He didn't really have lady luck on his side in that finish.
