UFC 145: Travis Browne vs. Chad Griggs

[gunswordfist]

Hey, the UFC HW division is getting deep enough where there will be some gate-keepers.

Yeah, fighters will start to be gatekeepers and not contenders in the division now.

Griggs is kinda a throwback.....just one tough sonofabitch with average skills......+ he helped expose the fraud that is Lashley....I like the dude

so gassing because of too much musculature makes you a fraud GTFO if he hadn't gassed lashley would have won that easy he had nothing untill then i think you need to watch the fight again and see who the real fraud is

watch the end of the fight...Lashley quit...he did not gas...he quit...it was the first time he had taken some hard shots, didn't like it and fuckin quit....the round ended, he stood up with no injury that would prevent his continuing..and he told the ref he had enough..he quit

and did you read anything after wait I'm gonna try the dot thing too.....did you......read.....anything after.....when lashley....admitted he was dehydrated at the end....plus....that refere standing it from mount......was.....total....and utter....BS....everyone....knows it. Yes I guess we ahould all just be dumb asses and walk out to fight clearly knowing he had nothing left in the tank dude lashley was controlling everything so you say he quit right because of hard shots? hmm then why didn't lashley "quit" as you say in round 1 explain I'm eager to hear your response

Damn brah! Lashley related to you?

Still hoping Griggs can pull this one off but I've learned a bit about Travis Browne by now, and I have a feeling Travis is going to win this one.

I hope that's wrong, but he's certainly fought tougher competition in the UFC than Griggs has in SF. Not to mention the size difference -- Browne is going to have about a 5" reach advantage. When its striker vs. striker, that's not insignificant.

Should be a good Fight both fighters are "natural" heavyweights..Im going to go with Browne since he is on a roll and i cant stand Griggs chops

[Calder]

Griggs is super aggressive and usually finishes in the 1st round. I consider this a big step up in competition for him. The question in my eyes is can Browne weather the storm/exchange without taking too much damage and escape the first 5 minutes? My guess is yes.

Browne via UD

Somebody is getting finished.

Somebody is getting finished.

Browne has gassed before though and Griggs is a finisher so we don't know what will happen if these guys make it into the 2nd and 3rd rounds after goin balls to the wall in the 1st

I got Browne winning but you can never count Griggs out.

[505MMA]

I'll say Griggs. Just for fun. It should be a good one though. Browne can play it a bit safe at times even though he's got a lot of talent. I wouldn't mind if he won, just as long as he doesn't fight a boring safe fight

[ButtersStotch]

I'm super excited for this one. I'll take Griggs. Those sideburns can't fail. ha.

I got Browne winning but you can never count Griggs out.

I feel the same way. Like both these guys and this fight.
