I still think Gus can be champion at LHW. He just needs Jones to move up to HW.
Gustafsson needs a knockout to beat Jones or DC. And it seems to be like he doesn't have enough power for that. He loses too much points with his running. Referees don't like that.
Huge night, huge fights. Thank you Stockholm! Looking forward to see UFC again in Sweden!
razor close fights against Jones and Cormier. He can absolutely beat one of them on the right night. there's also no Rumble to derail his run to the title
I personally thought Gus won his fight against Jones.
Was Gus an underdog in this fight? I knew I should've bet on him.
Nah. I think most sites had him around a -300 favourite.
That makes more sense. Sometimes the odds are just wacky. I made a tidy sum betting on Phil Davis when he fought Glover. For some reason he was a substantial underdog.
I just wish something could be done about these guys that lead with their fingers out for reach advantages.
Under the new unified MMA rules, this is a foul. Unfortunately not all commissions have adopted the rules.
