He's got so much heart it's ridiculous, he was also landing good shots in the 5th round before Cain finished him.

Though after watching his last fight he's doesn't get off the clinch very well anymore, he almost welcomes getting hit to (he thinks?) tire out his opponent. I want to see his fight more but that's me being selfish. I'm almost positive he will fight again. JDS vs Reem is a fight I would like to see

I'm concerned about the long term effects of the blows JDS and Roy Nelson have been absorbing.

I do not want to see JDS get to the point that Chuck did. I'm hoping JDS has made some good money and that he can retire in good health.

Reporter asks if White, Fertitta, Epstein, Rogan etc will also be tested same way. White and Fertitta say they are willing to be tested, NP.

I doubt they will get tested, I honestly don't see why they should but lol of they fail. Should through Rogan in the boat also

I rewatched Brocks last fight (vs Overreem). Brock did not look like himself at all. He showed no power in his few takedown attempts. He never did his normal frieght train double leg take down. and looked afraid to get hit even in the first minute of the fight. I wonder if Brock just came back way too soon. If he took more time to heal before coming back could he have been a real threat again?

How many people ever had a better double leg takedown? Sometimes I see guys struggle for 90 seconds trying to pull a guy down via a single leg and I'm thinking go watch clips of Brock! :)

Gustafsson will get the next title shot at Cormier. Considering he is coming off a completely one-sided loss, I am a little surprised. With that being the case, I think the most fair thing to do would be Johnson vs. Bader for the #1 contender match.

I think most fans know that matchups are important. Even though Alex was KOed fast by Rumble he may put up a better fight against Cormier.

He has the cardio, the reach and height advantage. He is a smart fighter and I think he could be trouble for Cormier. Its seems though any fight that Cormier is in, it all falls back on his wrestling. IMO it will be a viscous circle until Jones gets back.
