Curtis also weighed in on the Jones Mia Church matchup saying John wins I think it will be a hard Fight he's not just going to take him Down and hit him with a guillotine Stigma is a smart fighter he knows how To blend the wrestling with the Striking I know John does that also so he's going To have to approach the fight with a Different mindset this last fight Jones New cirrogon didn't have any idea how to Grapple I always have that in the back Of my head it gives you a sense of Confidence like if anything gets hard I'll just grapple he's not going to have That with Stipe I give steepe a 50 50 Chance of winning And here are the top three funniest Memes we found on the internet today Third place was found over Twitter and Was posted by a user named MMA press our Second place meme was found over Reddit And was posted by a user named Seth the Meth head And her top pick was found over Facebook And was posted by a user named UFC news And memes Thank you guys for watching if you liked The video please leave a like And Subscribe to our channel to keep up with The latest MMA News Foreign
