GDT: UFC Fight Night: Blaydes vs. Dos Santos

[Avs_19]

Agree with DC. Blaydes is in a weird spot even after the big win because that division is stuck right now. DC and the winner of Ngannou/Rozenstruik are probably ahead of him for a title shot.

For sure, he's in a Gaethje-ish situation.

Bellator card is sneaky nice


Excited to see Borics

Good win for Blaydes, but still kind of disappointing from JDS. That's 2 in a row where it was like "what are you doing?" I get it, you want to stop the takedowns, but this is HW. Anybody and everybody has the power to put you out with one punch.

RDA's gotta figure out how to stuff some takedowns.

 

[CDJ]

Baby Pettis just annihilated somebody

Caldwell gives Borics his first loss

I think it's fairly obvious that steroids played a large role in Dos Santos' success when he first joined the UFC

Or maybe it was a decade ago and he's been through some wars since then?

 

[torero]

Dos Santos has never been the same after he was laminated 2 fights by Cain !
He really received some heavy punishment their !
i believe that he never truly recovered.

He was better lately ... but nothing spectacular.

 

[CDJ]

Yeah he’s fought the best of the best for a decade and taken a lot of punishment, when you hear hooves you gotta think horses over zebras

That wouldn't explain why his body isn't nearly as shredded as it once was

PED version:

Clean version:

 

[CDJ]

Not saying he did or didn’t do steroids but it’s a lot easier to be yolked at 25 then it is at 35


Dudes still in pretty good shape imo.

No doubt. Guy is in better shape in their mid 20s than mid 30s. Shocking.

FOTN was Johns vs Gravely


POTN was Alex Perez and Herbert Burns (who flatlined a dude with a knee, it was p sweet)

 

[Suxnet]

JDS was totally on steroids. Look at guys like Sage and Costa. Way too ripped and popped multiple times by USADA.

 

[CDJ]

Again, not saying costa did or didn’t use steroids but he got popped by USADA for an illegal IV

@Neutrinos is like the Diaz brother of this board. "Everybody's on steroids."

Derrick Lewis talking about his upcoming bout with dos Santos:

"He's not on the juice no more"

Starts around the 30 second mark
