Ez off topic and pls delete but can we get an olympics thread?
Does anyone think Leites could have been coming off something? He looked significantly less explosive, most noticeably in the speed and power of his strikes, in his Moose fight than in the one before against Boetsch. Haven't been able to find any news about him coming in sick or injured to any of those fights.
I already like Camozzi at underdog odds and his conditioning and pace has looked noticeably better in his last outing against Miranda than his fights prior. IIRC, I think he recently added a full time strength and conditioning coach into his program a fight or two ago which will really benefit his attritting style. Agree with others that Camozzi is definitely coming into his prime. Camozzi also pushes a good constant jab and I think he'll be able to find success with it similarly to Mousasi, albeit not the same amount. Think the fight will play out similarly to Leites Bisping but with Leites being able to be more effective with his grappling and a little more competitive in the striking.
Hasn't looked too different physically in his last three fights (Mousasi, Bisping, Boetsch). Went through and looked at his last three weigh in photos too and he more or less looks the same.I need to rewatch mousasi fight. Was his physique different? Gotta admit camozzi has been looking really good.

Moose was a nightmare matchup, and Leites performed well vs Bisping. Hardd to say he hasn't been performing the same. I might end up just lb'ing as far as picking a winner is concerned, but I can easily see Leites winning a decision here
Na not at all. Camozzi doesn't move particularly fast or have a laser jab like Moose. He relies more on his kicks than hands. Leites shouldn't have trouble getting inside, no one really does vs Camozzi. It wouldn't surprise me at all if Leites can score some takedowns in this fight.but don't you think camozzi is also a bad match up? camozzi is essentially a worse version of mousasi. i absolutely think he can deploy a similar gameplan - keep it standing and kickbox. that being said, camozzi is wilder than mousasi so he's more at risk at being caught by one of thales' power shots, but at + odds i'm happy to take the risk.
Also, not sure why so many are confident in Caceres the later the fight goes. Cole Miller looked like complete shit for 2 rounds, and then schooled Caceres on the mat in the third. Have to believe some of that sloppiness came from not having the best cardio
