"KimJoe" and his furrier Evan Tanner throwback:
The clearly bigger (fatter?) and supposedly badder (slower?) Fabricio Werdum:
The totally shredded Pete "Drago" Sell 2.0:

whoa, what’s up with werdum? He was takling all that smack about a title shot, dos santos looked big, strong and quick, I hope he didn’t underestimate him.
makes me wonder why (go back and watch) Dana asks him "is your weight ok?) it doesn’t have to be, he’s a HW.

Werdum by 2nd round tko! Maybe he was trying to put on mass for strength and he just has the body that makes him look fat or didnt have time to tone down after?

That doesn’t look like “strong” size. That looks like “donuts” size. He looks like he’s been training with Tim Sylvia.

I think even if Werdum underestimates him he will still pull this off. Only thing he has to do is get to the ground and sub him.

exactly M Nc-17! All Werdum has to do is get the fight to the ground. He Cant stand with Dos. Even though his striking looks Ultra improved, playing with your new arsenal that he learned at chutebox wont be a good idea. He doesnt look in shape to me, so he will have to stick to his bread and butter….Get the fight to the ground, Mount and pound away, or grab a hold of an arm.
Dos is a great addition to the UFC,l just give him some time

Lmao, that does look like “donuts size”. As good as Werdum is, we all know what can happen when you over look your opponent.

he must not do much cardio cos its not hard to loose fat when your training everyday! geese

Junior Dos Santos should not be underestimated. He’s got great striking and he trains with Minotauro and Silva. This one has upset written all over it.

I hope so. I would love to see him shut Werdum up.

brandon: Dos trains with the GODS of MMA? I did not know that! I look Forward to this fight but I would have liked to see Werdum come in in better shape

verdum is clearly a very fat version of himself.. this doesn’t look good for him, I’d start betting on the underdog here..

Werdum was depressed about not getting a title shot and ate too many donuts.
by natedogg77 on Oct 25, 2008 11:30 AM EDT reply actions 0 recs
lol! werdum is only promised a title shot IF he beats dos santos, so he has no reason to be depressed. werdum has a history of underperforming in certain fights. i think he has all the talent in the world, but mentally, he seems to be lacking. we’ll see come tonight.

just because hes cut doesnt mean he can fight any better, Burkman via 2nd round tko.

Does this remind people of Keith Jardine/Houston Alexander?

Looks like Werdum, depressed by getting snubbed a title shot, has been drowning his sorrows in some Ben and Jerry’s.

sell’s body looks physically fit, but his face looks like he had chemo. hopefully he is not drained b/c i would love to see him beat the snot out of burkman.

Rogan needs to lose the lumberjack look…

Actually, I heard he just recently got cast in the re-make of Wolfman and that’s why he is sporting the new look! (lol, sarcasm)
