"When Cormier and Velasquez spar it's pretty much a standstill" - Javier Mendez

[EZRA27]

what is a standstill? Do they both just stand still without moving?

Worst joke this year.

He most definitely will have the choice. He's an independent contractor to the UFC, not an indentured servant.

If that happens I hope he gets the same vitriol Jones was exposed to for refusing to fight that fraud Sonnen.

I find it kind of weak how they refuse to fight each other and Cormier would even wreck himself to drop a weight class. Why can't they just throw down like they do in sparring anyways, get paid then have a beer?

Because if they say they wont fight they have a bargaining chip to use in salary negotiations?

He has "an amazing core"? Why don't you just say what you mean instead of trying to use these trendy words that the weight lifting magazines start using a lot because they have to sell a certain number of copies every month? There is little or nothing new for these magazines to write about so they start using terms like "core strength" to try to fool the potential readers that they actually have something new to write. Any decent anatomy book lists all the muscles;there aren't new muscles like "core muscles" being discovered. Can you even name the "core muscles" by their proper names?

Wow. Did you get fired from Muscle & Fitness?

He just seems to small for HW. He is pretty short and he carries a lot of extra weight.

Why? He ragdolled Barnett which no one has even come close to and man handled Big Foot. He'd easily handle any UFC HW. The guy is a beast.
