Why do people forget that Anthony "Rumble" Johnson would beat all these UFC 205ers

[Todd498]

Rumble can ko any man but he does turn into a pussy if he gets hit tho.

This! And Jiri would DEFINITELY hit him

 

[blaseblah]

Corey Anderson would easily beat everyone in the 205 division, he beat younger Jan, imagine what he would do to the current Ja- nevermind

Rumble doesn't have the chin issue Anderson does. He pretty much smokes everyone who isn't at the super elite level. He only lost to DC at his natural weight class.

 

[MadNIghtKing]

The Bellator guys are so broken after Yoel Romero dropped out, trying to convince themselves that Ryan Bader would be in top 10 ufc lhw division is laughable.

 

[RockyLockridge]

rumble vs jiri would be awesome

 

[imbossing]

Rumble lost to a non gmo vitor and Josh

 

[spooNN]

Yea, he probably beats them but we forget because he's not in the UFC and when was the last time he fought?

 

[alex21cms]

sure dc was the top but also shows that take dc to deep waters he quits.
yoel would of done that to rumble if he didnt have to pull out.

in a rematch ryan bader will do that.

dc is a heavyweigth no one at lhw now is a better wrestler than bader or davis save maybe ankalev and non of those guys where able to take rumble down

 

[Hellowhosthat]

We don't really know what Rumble is going to look like yet. I don't think he was training during most of his time away.

 

[Gigaton Punch]

I think if he was the same destroyer he was before he retired, he would he champ in this current crop of LHW
He only lost to DC at 205
He was really out of shape during a lot of his time off though. He definitely was not training hard that whole time.

 

[Peli]

Glover is 40-something and about to fight for the title and got knocked out in like 12 seconds. But go ahead and talk about Ankalaev and Jiri.

rumble is not in the ufc anymore, so its kinda moot to bring it up. Nemkov would eat in the UFC 205 division and became a star there too. Again, not saying much by stating the obvious.

 

[hohner]

In way after "because rear naked chokes exist"

doesnt have to take rumble down. taking him to deep waters where he get fustrated he cant get the ko he could quit.

 

[pinero]

He never was champion in UFC for a reason, he was the real and undisputable weight bully in the UFC and Vitor kicked his butt with a huge weight disadvantage.

when has rumble even been hurt by punches

 

[gaffbyknees2]

I don't think so. Mentally weak when things weren't going his way. Didn't he lose to Dan Hardy or is my memory wrong ?

 

[gaffbyknees2]

Rumble overrated ass.

>Jan beats him

>Glover doesnt but glover is getting a titleshot off of beating no acls thiago

>Reyes might beat him tbh

>Rakic punts rumbles head out of the arena

>Jiri beats crumble

>Smith loses

>Ankalev beats him

>Thiago losses due to acls being gone

Rakic doesn't punt anyone's head anywhere. He bores us with decisions then acts like he had some fight if the night lol

 

[CerebralKnievel]

Lol Crumble aint shit.

And yet Glover is? Ridiculous statement: "ain't shit." His many definitive victories state otherwise.

Can't win if you dont make weight

 

[Ubereem]

He can be good, but he always legit gives up in fights.

 

[Dionysian]

Ankalaev likely beats prime Rumble the same way all top level fighters have repeatedly beaten Rumble

Present day Rumble is multiple years removed from prime Rumble / whatyearisthis.gif

Also USADA
