Who you got?

Who you got?

Im going with lee..

I think he is better all-around. Very explosive and powerful. Prolly the physically strongest dude in division.

I think he may the second best wrestler after khabib as well. Not overall grappler because he has sme holes in his BJJ, but just the wrestling aspect.

He's just such a strong explosive dude.

So i think his wrestling will be the edge. Especially if it goes to a decision.

However barbosa is a few levels above lee in technical aspects of striking. But again Lee's explosiveness and quickness along with threat of being taken down will temper this technical edge.

Lee can definitely get caught if he forgets to mix up his wrestling or if he starts to gas like he did in ferguson fight (which may be a concern depending on how hard he drained himself).

But yeah Im rolling with Lee for a third round stoppage ground and pounding from the mount.

Lol great assessment, pretty much agree with everything you said. Lee is one of the most physically impressive 155 guy I've seen. His wrestling is top notch as is pure athleticism. I think he's gonna take down barboza any chance he can and control the fight until he can get the stoppage most likely from ground and pound.

Barboza is dangerous because of his bjj and his stricking is a bit more refined. I think he will make it competitive if he tries to keep it on the feet but that's easier said than done.

You make a good point about the furgosen fight.. I think lee cuts a lot of weight and that eventually effects him as fights go on. If barboza can get to the 3rd round he should try and take advantage of that.

But I think lee is just too much for him
