nice bowl haircut.

nice shiner under left eye, his left. you were lost b/c you took a huge knee to the head.

I'm all about covering the spread and moneylines. Glory favors the bold. Chance favors the prepared mind. Luck, well i have that too. University of Utah goes to the Pac-12 conference in 2011. I expect them to compete immediately for the conference CG. Brock Lesnar will defeat Cain Velasquez. Womens MMA, the next big thing in sports. 2 weeks till the first game of college football. UTAH vs Pitt. September 2nd 2010.

Diego looks like shit at 170. I keep imagining him belonging to a Mariachi band.

This is a good fight, Thiago has a lot of weaknesses, so does Diego, I got Thiago UD tho.

This will be a sloppy exchange on the feet, neither guy doing any significant damage;

Ass a general career overview no.. He doesn't.

But he looked overly soft against Hathaway, and he looks the same in this video. Maybe bulking back up to 170 didn’t go so well seeing how he leaned his frame for 155.

Paulo Thiago has looked like shit in all of his fights

his stand up technique is non existent; if he didn’t have insane power then Jake Shields would win a kickboxing match vs him. I see Diego going back to his roots and dominating Paulo with an up and down scramble, 3 round unanimous decision, much like the classic fights vs Nick Diaz and Karo Parisyan.

I should never have doubted the wisdom of David W-S or the talent of Junior Dos Santos…and screw Dana White

LATE TAKEDOWN FTW

That's how I seeing it go down too Syn!

Anderson Silva is by far the number one P4P king!!! Even when he is losing a fight he still comes back and finishes for the win! GSP dominates the whole fight and still can't finish! LOL

his standup definitely needs some work. He’s got kind of a wandy-esq swing going on when he gets trading with guys. Obviously no one does wandy but wandy but you know how its just back and forth swinging from the hips for the fences and not too many dif combos. The real dif tho is that wandy enforced this style with his aggressive nature. Paulo tends to wait for guys to engage him. Just my take.
His power and from what i can tell so far his chin make it relatively suitable for him right now. Atleast for the time being. Any fighter with a crisp jab and a dec. chin could beat his style at the moment . I dont think that ‘guy’ is a someone put it one time “the rock-em sock-em robot” diego sanchez

i'll know in the first 15 seconds whether or not he will win. if he comes out superagrressive

i think he wins and yes i don’t like him. thiago seems to fold under pressure.

Think this one will be a good brawl. Going to play out 1 of 2 ways: Diego does a Diaz and makes it a sprawl and brawl affair with lots of work and preference to the “transitions,” where I think he has a major, marked advantage. Conversely, Diego will stand and throw strikes at which point, he’s throwing against a more powerful striker. Likely this fight will go to a decision. Diego should have stayed at LW and worked his way to a re-match with Florian. I think the road at WW ends with gate-keeper status. Better matches at LW!
