Sherdog preview up. Surprised so many are on Edwards.

This is a big step up for him everyone hes beat has been cut. We have never seen him face a striker let alone a beast like tumenov who has ko'd three fighters in the ufc who have never been stopped by head strikes before, and beat the ww monster that is lorenz larkin. He seems to have low output from the fights we have seen, and the most we have seen of him standing was against pawlak who is terrible. Yes he outstruck him but it was nothing impressive tumenov would have destroyed pawlak in a round. We've never seen him take a punch either. Way too many question marks here for me to back edwards. Better the devil you know in this spot for me, and my balls are on the table money wise.
 
thx card for vids, few red flags spotted

Struve - hand surgery recently (claims he is good now though)
Jimi Manuwa - foot and hand injury during training (looks recent and just working thru it?)

Other rumours still going around :-
Hendo r neck/back injury due to lack of head movement

It could just be a really sore/stiff neck. About 6 weeks ago I had a pretty bad neck pain and I moved around looking exactly like that and had a lot of trouble sleeping. Happened to me before, but that was the worst one I remember. Took about 10 days before it went away by itself.
 
bisping hendo and moose especially I thought looked good, he flat out laughed at the weigh in! what does this mean!!!??
 
Edwards looks WAY more than 1 inch taller

Hendo said 'one more fight for you guys'

Got bisping in a parlay but secretly I want hendo to win lol

Oh my lawd this almost looks photoshopped lol. He's also dehydrated here i'd imagine he'll probably be more flabby around the waist come fight time. This may even be worse than reem/testostereem.
