Fabes 89 Member Since: 1/1/01 Posts: 44321 Mixed Martial Arts LLC, Moderator	smiter - Gene Pitney - Who would he have a better shot at beating....Jones or Anderson? Anderson But Anderson would beat Jones. Jones would keep Mousassi at reach then take him down at will. Anderson Moussasi would be all stand up which gives Gegard more of a chance but I'd still take Anderson. Agreed You have ignored this user.

MartialArtsMixed - He's eventually going up to hw

He said that waaaay earlier on in his career. He was weighing around 220-230 lbs when he first moved up to LHW.

Now, he says he walks around at 210 and could make 185, but doesn't want to. In a way, it's very reasonable: while fans can recognize that ideal weight classes are generally the best, fans lose sight that dropping a weight class means forfeiting all the good (good $$$) matchups in that weight class, in exchange for another. I suppose he feels no reason to get rid of all the big LHW fights that are open to him, and would rather leave that for later, if he has to.

Also, as a side note, he's bigger than Hendo, Rashad, and Machida.

I thought he looks comparable to Rashad and Machida. I didnt think he was 210, he looked more like barely 200 to me. 210 at LHW is not bad at all, just didnt think he was there.

slamming 14 Member Since: 5/28/08 Posts: 10251	He will fight at LHW until he gets manhandled, which i suspect someone like Phil Davis or Rashad would do handily. He can beat Gustaffson though, without a doubt. You have ignored this user.

The majority of competitors in judo, wrestling, boxing, kickboxing, karate, tkd, bjj, sambo, mma, etc dont cut weight?

Wasa-B 63 Member Since: 1/1/01 Posts: 42875	orcus - Ok, yeah, that does look like he is ok at LHW, i just thought he was about 10-15lbs lighter than he is at LHW for some reason. So he is around 210, id say that's big enough and possibly bigger than Rashad and Machida. You have ignored this user.

Yes but thus like Fedor Gegard is confident enough in his skill level to fight around his natural weight. That shows confidence. Therefore he's not a pussy. You have ignored this user.
