I think Barnett gets boxed up on route to being k.o. |

indianrob - I think Barnett gets boxed up on route to being k.o. unfortunately yes. I see him shooting for takedowns to no avail and being forced to stand with JDS and finally eating a lighting uppercut and stumbling around like a dumpy white oaf till he finally crumbles. I don't like it but can't see it going any other way. |

If Barnett can get him down, he would be a big threat. I'm just not too confident that Josh can take JDS down.

I don't see a good pathway to a Barnett win. Could Barnett outstrike JDS? Possible but improbable. Could Barnett take him down? He has a better chance with that, but on the other hand Barnett's not a great takedown guy. Could he keep JDS down if he got him to the ground? Unlikely. What's more likely is that JDS uses his speed, boxing, and foot work to keep Barnett at range and tag him over and over again until JDS draws blood and pounces in for the kill.

First fight with Joaquim Ferreira http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i4y_bvhalTc Second fight (where he gets armbarred) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sglrE5UYXXc As you can see in the video, he easily sweeps Ferreira and gets on top. Gets complacent, and gives up an arm. Ferreira hangs on to it tight as JDS rolls and tries to escape. This was after he had beat the shit out of him in their first match and Ferreira tapped out due to exhaustion. Ferreira is the type of guy who is dangerous for the first two minutes and then that is pretty much it. JDS made a rookie mistake in his 6th fight. One he has not made since. Here's the fight with Joaquim and Glover. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qVMjOcyik5E Here's Joaquim vs. Damian Grabowski (insane grappling match) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z57VHK5Ct3E<br /><br /> |

Love to see one or two UFC fights with Barnett in it before matching with JDS. But an absolute hell yes to seeing Barnett and Cormier in the heavyweight mix in the UFC. |

I don't understand? What does that have to do with anything? I think Barnett would give JDS a decent fight. I'm not sure if he would be able to get Junior to the ground, but it's not out of the question obviously. I doubt JDS would be shooting for take downs on Josh. |

IF it does happen I hope it's 5 rounds. I'd say JDS/OVereem are the worst 2 matchups out there for Barnett though. Gets outstruck by both and doesnt take either down |

Barnett would have a good chance against any heavyweight in the UFC. cept' maybe Cain...a chance, but i don't know how good of a chance |

Barnett is a bad matchup for most guys. So is JDS. |

Barnett wins the battle of attrition. He's durable, and JDS fades easily. |

HenryO - IF it does happen I hope it's 5 rounds. Barnett is a bad match up for reem. Barnett ties him up, takes him down does whatever he wants. Cain is the match up i'm not so sure about... Too similar. |

chokeyou -HenryO - IF it does happen I hope it's 5 rounds. I dont see it for Barnett at this point anymore. He's competitive with anyone in the world but I think he falls short of the current elite Heavys. Which to me is Cain/Cormier/Overeem/JDS Would love to see him against Mir/WErdum and the Nog rubber mtach. With everyone else but JDS scheduled, JDS/Barnett does make sense and would love to see it |
