DDP & Pereira agree to fight at 205 lbs

I kinda like it, but ddp is gonna have to wrestle or die haha.
I used to not like the quick jump in divisions after winning a title, but ddp has a couple of title defenses in anyway. I’ve come to accept that most champs have such a small window of prime to do something special like this. As long as they defend once or twice, I’m ok with it.

DDP is a tough fighter and all, but it would hurt my heart a little if he managed to KO Pereiera with his goofy striking.
It'd be interesting.
DDP will get fucking destroyed. It will be SUPER ugly. He loves to rush in throwing straights and if he does that against the very tall Poatan, he will take an EASY hook over those strikes (which I have seen him eat quite a few times) and will be BRUTALLY, but temporarily, separarted from the waking world........

Zero chance for DDP if it stays on the feet, zero chance for Periera if it doesn't.
He will have great difficulty taking him down. It will be an easy KO for Perriera...
Won't hear it from me. I enjoyed the surprise when Izzy KO'd him. Though I did feel like Izzy catching him in the fight he lost, bodded poorly for Alex...
Maybe, we'll see how he goes against Ankalaev who I expect to spam shoot right from the jump.
Should be interesting
Just watched the Roundtree/Perriera fight again with DDP in mind. I think the fact that Khalil did well against him initially with some of the same bum-rush punches in bunches and then got solved and beaten badly is not good for DDP...
DDP and Khalil are similar height (DDP an inch shorter), build and near identical reach. I am thinking DDP won't last 1 round now...
Side note: it kills me that no one on the announcing team saw that the whole fight changed after Alex caught him with the knee. How do you miss that??
