Which UFC Heavyweight Could Stipe Have Beaten Last Night?

[lowlife]

I don't want to down play rd 1 though, that gnp took whatever fight he may have had right out of him.

 

[ChessJitsu]

Mick Parkin, Valter Walker, Tai Tuivasa, Marcos Rogerio De Lima, Waldos Cortes Acosta, Parker Porter, Derrick Lewis, Sergei Spivac, Marcin Tybura etc

Tai Tuivasa is fast af boiii

 

[Small Town Andrew]

Stipe is completely shot. Like Tony Ferguson went from one of the best to the worst fighter on the roster. Age has caught up to Stipe

 

[wisdom blows]

He looked as bad as Tyson did.

 

[FrankDux]

Can't think of a single one.

Jones is the GOAT. Cope.

 

[Dionysian]

Could have beat Mike Tyson. And UFC promotion would make the same conclusion: "DID YOU SEE THAT OLD MAN'S ABS!!!?!?? OF COURSE BEATING AN OLD GUY WINLESS OVER YEARS AND WHO NO LONGER COMPETES IS THE GREATEST WIN... ABS!!! BEST FIGHT THE BEST BABY!"

 

[Goatenstein]

He would have beaten most of them.

 

[andgonsil]

Carlos Boi

 

[CasualBot]

Chris Barnett would've walked through Stipe last night.

 

[HeffDoesWant]

Damn, you thought he looked that bad huh?

I mean yes he looked terrible. No way around that, but Tuivasa...

Tai who scored a knock down off Jones only really win at HW?

Nah, old man Stipe would get an early bed time. Prime Stipe from last decade a different story of course.

 

[blaseblase]

Maybe Marcin Tybura

 

[OldBoy91]

Maaaaaybe Tai Tuivasa.

Thats a huge maybe though, I'd give the Stipe of last night between a 20 and 30% chance.

 

[blaseblase]

Damn, you thought he looked that bad huh?

I mean yes he looked terrible. No way around that, but Tuivasa...

He definitely would have beaten Tuivasa, that guy's ground game is trash and he doesn't have Black Beast's "just get up" superpower.

 

[OldBoy91]

Could have beat Mike Tyson. And UFC promotion would make the same conclusion: "DID YOU SEE THAT OLD MAN'S ABS!!!?!?? OF COURSE BEATING AN OLD GUY WINLESS OVER YEARS AND WHO NO LONGER COMPETES IS THE GREATEST WIN... ABS!!! BEST FIGHT THE BEST BABY!"

Stipe vs Tyson might be the first fight in history to go to a draw with a combined 12 strikes thrown. 0 landed.

 

[Hellowhosthat]

I'm fairly confident he could beat Austen Lane.

 

[Ludwig von Mises]

Stefan Struve would have knocked out Stipe of last night for the second time.

 

[Bend NvR Break]

Honestly probably Aspinall. He survived that 1st round where 99% of guys would've been cooked. Tom included.

 

[Judge Lance Ito]

In UFC embedded he was in the car on the phone to his wife and he sounded AWFUL. Like his speech was completely fucked up. Cormier completely battered him for 1.5 fights and Francis flatlined him.
I knew it was gonna be a bad night for him.

 

[Sms_productions713]

Outside of the top few? All the rest of them.

 

[BabyBlue_Bomber]

Tom Aspinall
