Paulo Costa is going to be a nightmare for anyone at 185. This guy looks like the posterboy for PEDs. I feel he beats everyone at mw.

Him v Israel would be a great fight indeed :box:

Know its a little old news, but Dillashaw's, esp recent, attitude makes him look the even bigger prick after popping to EPO.... almost feel like he is one guy that doesnt deserve redemption, career wise.....

Certainly wouldnt surprise me.

Must admit, bar a couple of fights, that card doesnt exactly have me excited tbh.

What a friggin fight yesterday.....

Full props to Iaquinta who pushed forward and tried to stay in the pocket, most of the match..... made a fantastic account of himself....

would love to see Cowboy vs Ferguson (health pending)... and Iaquinta vs Gaethje...... both crazy match ups....

What an insane division atm.....

The big whiner, aka khabib, says he want to fight in Dec and April. So after Poirier, scarface should get the shot and have Cowboy fight Justin next

Cowboy-Gaejhe would be fun. Not sure if Cerrone would handle the extreme pressure Justin would put on him though.

I was impressed with how Cowboys chin held up the other night to be honest! Normally he seems a little vulnerable, but he didn't seem rattled at all against Al really.

So ESPN is exclusively covering the pfl, it starts on Thursday and they still don't include it in their fight schedule. Bizarre

This fight HAS to be made. Be interesting to see how the 'new and improved' Gaethje matches up against the more technical striking if Cowboy

I have to be honest, I wasn't always a fan of Cowboy. I got fed up of seeing people kissing his ass all the time lol. However I can see why people do love watching him so much though. He's always willing to fight pretty much anyway, and he's very rarely in a dull fight (actually I can't remember him ever being in a boring fight). Normally he's either on the end of a bit of a brutal beating, or he's dishing one out.

He's a very 'in' fighter. I've got friends who have only just started getting into the sport that they've always loved cowboy :lol:

You're right though, fun fighter to watch, win or lose.

My buddy hates cowboy for that very reason. I've liked him since wec, but he's no gaithjie in my preference list. Justin would fornicate him up too.

Never heard of Geathje before UFC, but I've become a fan very quickly. I too think he puts a beating on Cowboy

Yeah I do think that Cowboy will struggle with that pressure that Justin always brings. Cerrone has never done that well against guys that really pressure him.

His best bet with Justin is landing a knee when Justin ducks down to eat uppercuts and get full power on his leg kicks.

Oh wow! Last I heard he was still out from Dana this past weekend. Happy he's back. I can't decide which divison is the best atm, 155, 170, or 185...

I'm very hyped for Moraes-Cejudo. I know Cejudo has a lot of momentum on his side, but I'm picking Moraes to stop him.
