Anthony Johnson Moves to Middleweight, Will Face Vitor Belfort at UFC 142

[Dorian]

He SHOULD easily go through Vitor.

Rumble is HUGE! 6'2 and 79 inch reach, 220 when he isn't fat.....
He should have never cut down to 170.
His cardio was horrible there and that was is his main weakness.
Great wrestling, great muay thai and brutal power(which should increase with his move).

I think he has a chance in this fight if he can get past the first round

GREAT muay thai? you sure? it looks ok but far from great IMO.

should be an interesting matchup.

Rumble has great kicks. Has 3 head kick Ko's in the UFC I think.
He mixes his punches and kicks great and has excellent leg kicks too.
His head kicks are viscous

the Brenneman one doesn't really count tho, the fighter was fine and the ref didnt even look to see that, just saw the kick and stopped it.

I am not sold on him as a great muay thai guy when he hasnt shown it against a top fighter yet. but If he does then I eat humble pie

Ill give you the Brennenman one but he was out on his feet and if they let it go any longer wouldve had the same result, As for his muay thai like you said good not great im a big rumble fan meet him a couple times but i hope the people i see on here dont think he is gonna walk through Vitor he is tough... I hope im wrong

he has a lot of power but from a skill standpoint hes not a very good striker. hes just a a great athelete whos very explosive but power alone doesnt make someone a great striker.

I think Johnson might finally get a title shot now, possibly after 3 good wins.
