Topic: UFC 208: Holm vs De Randamie Info and Prediction Thread - page 2. (Read 2772 times)
I think Anderson won , a lot of people say he didnt. I gave him rd 1 and 3.
Here's the results of the event. Overall the card was average at best. The only thing that made it interesting was the Silva vs Brunson fight. But then that turned out to be underwhelming as well. I'm happy Silva won tho. It's still good to see a new W in his column. So yeah, can't wait for 209. I got Woodley on that one.

germaine will dominate. thank me later
You sure? I was thinking of going with Holly Holm because of her performance vs Ronda Rousey which is basically the last match I have seen of her but she left a lasting impression on me so I am backing her up tonight for fun. And apparently she is the underdog so the odds are even higher on her and that's an extra bonus. I won't be upset if she loses though that's gambling
Why are you asking if he is sure when you last watched a Holly fight it was over one year ago. He might know better than you and with your post it shows you do not know any better.
Everything Ronda in the octagon was hyped by the UFC to promote women's MMA. In her fights before Holly, Ronda's weaknesses were not exposed. Holly exposed them all as showed in that fight.
Germaine de Randamie
Anderson Silva
Tim Boetsch only for the odds
Glover Teixeira
Dustin Poirier
Randy Brown my pick of the card
Wilson Reis
Nik Lentz
Ian McCall

MMA is all about skillset v skillset... One particular win against another fighter isnt always an indicator of who will win.. Germaine is a muay thai and kick boxing champion.. the more skilled striker overall and since Holm is a striker herself she wont have to worry much about Holm taking her down which favors Germaine by a long shot...
Let's not kid ourselves here... Anderson Silva is a living legend and a hall of famer, no doubt about that, but the guy is starting to be too old for this shit. He has taken too much punishment. He can win? sure, he can defeat anyone, but as age creeps in, most fighters start being the underdogs at least in terms of odds.
And speaking about odds... surprised to see Randamie with better odds than Holms. Randamie has a very limited UFC record.
The odd makers are really weird and they make these odds according to the spur of the moment and the reason for Randamie being a favorite is simply because Holy Holmes is coming into this fight with two consecutive losses in her career and that is what favors Randamie to be the favorite in the eyes of the bookies and she has a huge fan following in her native country.

he use to sweep his leg kick from a distant and knock vitor using front kick back then but this time its something that you don't regularly see during his fights. i bet he can't use his legs when on ground to triangle lock his opponents.
I bet for Brunson. huge win.
In this match Anderson Silva is the underdog and if you bet for him you could win huge I bet for Brunson. huge win.
Brunson is coming into this match after a loss and that too in the first round ,Anderson broke his leg but his performance were not that bad in all of his losses ,he is the underdog because he has lost 4 in a row and his age is against him in the eyes of the bookies.My bet is on Silva .he is now the underdog? lol all the more. what i mean when i say huge win is that sure win. bet big and win big.
if he lose 4 fights in a row, chances is that he will lose the next fifth. his leg was a career ender, he should have retire after it. i'm a spider fan but after two fights with weidman, retiring is something he should have considered.

exactly. Dan henderson is jsut an example here, he use to be huge hall of famer but the guy keeps losing all the time, i can't believe Dana keep giving him some fights but probably because he gives the crowd a fight we want. a fight where someone gets to be pound heavily which turns out to be him every time.
for Silva's case, its not just the age but that leg too. a broken bone is a broken bone.

Holly Holm is looking ripped as hell, top shape. But then again, so was Ronda Rousey in the last fight, and we all know what happened.
Radamie is undefeated in kick boxing. Holm is also a top striker in the UFC. I have no idea who I would bet for.

This is what I think. Holly has been an enigma. Before beating Ronda Rousey she was considered only as average and was not on anyone's radar before becoming the women's bantamweight champ. Is she really only an average fighter that was hyped after defeating Ronda?
How long has she been working with Israel Martinez? Did she focus more on her wrestlng in this fight? If she did we might see a change in her style.
Holy Holmes started her boxing career while sparring in a MMA gym and jackson wink camp was behind her the entire career and she was working with Israel Martinez for a long time now but since her focus is not wrestling she is focused on take down defense which has helped her in her fights and she has taken down Ronda Rousey and her game plan will be to stand and trade and if Randamie performs better in striking she might take her down and finish the match. How long has she been working with Israel Martinez? Did she focus more on her wrestlng in this fight? If she did we might see a change in her style.
Holms will probably win this games seeing she's got better footwork.
After anderson's leg incident, it does look like it could break any moment by a simple leg kick.
GTFO spammer. Anderson Silva will win via flying knee and get Brunson running back to his corner.
Anyway here's the official weigh-in video. My thoughts on the main event fighters:
Holm seems edgy. Like she can't wait to get in the octagon and get business done. She's ready and the nerves might help get more adrenaline pumped in her system.
Randamie seems relaxed. Too relaxed in fact. She might be forgetting that this a fight for the UFC Inaugural Women's FW Championship. She acts like it's in the bag and looks like she's already counting her chickens before they're hatched. It could be a tough match for her and that could get her down psychologically.
