Who hits harder? Prime DC or Stipe?

So a better question is who has more effective striking.

"Timing beats speed, precision beats power." Kenflo
 
You could easily make the argument for Stipe being top 5 hardest hitter ever, maybe even top 3. He has the resume, the one punch KO power but he also has those what they call "heavy hands". His punches just always have a lot of force behind them even when he's not aiming for a 1 shot KO. Which he is very capable of, what he did to Werdum? Putting him to sleep going backwards with a quick arm punch is an impressive feat.

DC is not in that league. he has those big powerful hips though, she can really swing hard with those hooks. But Sometimes in order to get a KO he needs you to be blind from one side so you can't see his shot coming.
 
My pick is Stipe, easily.

DC for his KO shots has to commit so hard on his punches with his full body weight and he wrecks his own fists against the target like he did vs Bigfoot Silva.
 
Stipe has more KOs and more knockdowns, over much better opponents, and head to head is 1-1 for KOs but 2:1 for KDs. How tf is this a question?

Somebody just wanted to suck DC's dick a little bit today. Gay.

If DC fought nothing but washed up 40 year Olds and CTE ambassadors he'd have more KOs too
 
Here we go again. DC padded his resume with cans and old fighters in SF.

Which old fighters in SF? Bigfoot who was coming off a win over Fedor and went on to smash Reem and Browne and to get a title shot?

Or Barnett who was in a crazy win streak and went to the UFC to smash Mir and AA?

"Padded his resume"

🤡
 
Yeah instead he TKO'd with GNP the Dion Starings of the world.

Fuck you're embarassing dawg.

Cry more little man.

DC actually beat all time great HWs in their prime while Stipe lost to them


Name one all time great HW Stipe knocked out when they were in their prime...

I'll wait little man
 
This.

Stipe had very sharp, straight punches. Good technique. Accurate placement. Boxing background.

DC was more haymaker, winging shots. Powerful, but wild. Less technical.

<Huh2>

What exactly makes you think that if Stipe were also just throwing massive winging haymakers with everything he had he wouldn't also score KOs?

I just can’t take you seriously as a person. This tenuous argument that DC’s SF run was somehow more impressive than Stipe’s run in the UFC is just embarrassing. I’ll call you out on it every time.

Please, go ahead and name the all-time great HWs (you added the plural buddy) DC ever beat in their prime besides Stipe himself. Who he lost the trilogy 1-2 to.

This should be fun.

Yea it's called valuing beating fighters in their prime above beating washed up 40 years olds with CTE.
