I agree this isn’t the greatest match up but carwin is hurt and Jake o’brien looks a lot better at 205…

Perhaps to get rid of McCully, and “pad” dos Santos’ record for a potential matchup against someone like Kongo (eventually), I hope he destroys McCully um I’m not a fan of his………

O’Brien is a 205er now.

I think that dos Santos versus McCully is a bit of head scratcher, but was Stefan Struve really that tough of an opponent?

NOT HAPPY…

In what way does this matchup make sense? Put a guy who is riding a bullet to the top of the division against a punching bag with appendages? Why not Carwin? This makes all the sense in the world. Carwin hasn’t won’t have fought since 96, Dos Santos since 95… Instead they make this matchup that will assuredly be on Ultimate Knockouts 8. I love Joe Silva and the job he does…but come on… lets let throwing dummies like McCully, Christian Wellisch, and Jake O’Brien go…or fight each other!

I’m really looking forward to this fight bc I like dos santos a lot. But I would like him to maybe fight cain valasquez bc I would like to c how he aproaches a dominate wrestler.

This should be a good test for Dos Santos. Even though he already got passed Werdum (who was inflated and not taking him seriously) this will test is Junior can avoid the ground. I like what I’ve seen from him so far, that guy has some serious power.
