Which fighters would Feijao be a favorite, even or close to even with in your mind?

Mousasi would be too quick standing with Rich, and with his newfound understanding and devotion to the importance of wrestling in his game, I really doubt Rich has the chops to take Mousasi down at will. That's never been Rich's game anyway.

I'm not so sure about the quickness. Is Mousasi quicker? Yeah but not too much that Rich can't keep up IMO. Like I said Rich has a very well rounded game himself. I just think it would be interesting to watch. You know Rich will be game. I think it would be a very interesting matchup.

Do the initials on fighter gloves have a semi-conscious effect on posters like SOONERS? His brain is literally unable to give LHWs outside the UFC credit. I don't think it's his fault.

U can give some1 credit but come on no way is a favorite over Shogun and Machida!

No one said that tim...

Really Ninja? You are on crack. They would all be fairly heavy favorites and they would all show why by dominating. I guess this is the new overrated guy? Is he replacing Mo as the new overrated non-UFC LHW? First Mousasi, then Mo now him. I'd take any bet in heartbeat involving any of the fighters I listed. Sometimes I don't know about you guys.

Ninja said he would favor Feijao over Shogun and Machida right? Then Sooners said are u smoking crack? Then u said Sooners doesnt give LHWs outside of the UFC any credit. To which i responded u can give him credit but there is no way he is a favorite over machida or Shogun! Unless I am reading something wrong I think I quoted every1 right LOL. If not sorry Im tired and just got home from work.

no timmy, slight confusion. Ninja said he would favor Feijao over Forrest and Ace with Bones being even money. Which I think is just crazy talk.

Gotta next time I will mind my own business LOL.

Funny thread to look back on. At the time I see a couple people put Feijao as a favorite or even to beat Jon Jones.

glad i didnt participate in this =D

That wasn't a bad fight. Forrest in no way dominated Ace.

I disagree with freak on lil Nog, I think Feijao would be a clear favorite there. I think Franklin would be right around even. Would also say he would be favored over Bader.

Franklin is done IMO, he'll lose his next fight and call it quits

Feijao would shit on Ace. He's got 1 or 2 entertaining fights left and he'll retire

Damn, I'm much higher on Ace then that. But I'm a huge fan so it's nearly impossible for me to be objective on him.

I don't think he fares well against anybody with big time size for the division who is an above average striker

I agree that the size could be a problem. But I think Ace could handle himself in the standup and is quick enough to win that fight. I'd be more worried about someone like Mo holding him down and maybe doing some GnP. Franklin has good TDD but I don't think he could stop a healthy Mo, that is a bad matchup for Ace IMO.

I agree with ou. Rich could handle himself in the stand up. Also mo would be a bad match up for him. I dont think he would get alot of gnp in though but it would look like mo/moussasi. Imo rich has been on a decline for a while now but at the same time look at his loses his entire career and to who. Not a bad list of guys to lose to.
