The Official Barnett vs. Cormier aka Remember When You All Said the SF HW Tournament Was A Great Idea Thread?

[Next Big Thing]

This is actually a pretty compelling main event matchup and decent card.

Barnett vs. Cormier
Melendez vs. Thomson
Kyle vs. Calvacante

I hope Cormier gets the W because I think he has a better chance at a long run with the UFC. I don't see Dana keeping Barnett around very long because it's probably a matter of time before Barnett says something that pisses Dana off or Barnett just pisses hot.

Melendez should put a lid on his SF run and make a compelling case for the UFC after Thomson. There's nothing left for him in SF after this.

On fucking PPV here.

Barnett needs to win this shit, backed ma boi since day 1

Him & Corimier seem too chummy with each other man, dont think this is gna be a good fight at all tbh though

[Next Big Thing]

They do seem too friendly. Barnett needs someone he can play heel to and I don't think Cormier has the personality for it. I think he could piss Mir off epically though and I wouldn't mind seeing that in the future.

I don't think Barnett wants to wrestle with Cormier, but at the same time, I don't think Cormier wants to test Barnett's catch wrestling. With his size and reach all Barnett need is one of Cormier's limbs and it's over. I think it should be a good stand up match and even if it does go to the ground, both of those guys are talented enough that it should be interesting to watch.

Melendez getting booed.

Overall a good show. I felt Thomson beat Melendez, I gave him rounds 3, 4, and 5 but it wasn't a "robbery". Close fight. Cormier has really come along ways in such a short amount of time. I look forward to seeing him in the UFC.

[Next Big Thing]

Overeem's suspension ends in December I believe. If Cormier's hand is heeled by then I wouldn't mind seeing Cormier vs. Overeem in a #1 contender's match on the New Year's Eve show.

[Mercury Bullet]

Not a bad idea at all.

Holy shit. OVereem vs Cormier? I like it, I LIKE IT!!!

But Overeem may need to adjust to a, uh, horsemeat free diet ;)
