Whitaker can take a ton of punishment, what's his ground game like.

Bisping was smart to back out and run away from Whitaker when he did

My guess is Whitaker and Jacare gets Rockhold but I'd be fine with either.

Rockhold's ground game might give Mousasi some trouble but I could see "Sweet and sassy" getting the win in both those match-ups.

Rockholds ground game might give Mousasi trouble? How is that?

While I think that Mousasi does have a really solid ground game, what could get him in trouble is the fact that Luke is huge and very strong. He's a talented grappler and with a big size and strength advantage it could be tricky for Moose to do much. Moose has also shown a tendency to be too complacent when on his back and that would be a bad place to be against Luke.

All that said, I would love to see Mousasi shut Luke up permanently with a vicious KO.

Mousasi used to fight at 205 and trained with Fedor so I doubt the size/strength advantage would be extreme.

But I think you're right about Mousasi being complacent.

Rockhold has a better ground game than Jacare. He would maul Mousasi.

I see your point but guys who've fought Jacare and Maia may disagree.

Jake shields disgarees with Maia and Carmont disagrees with Jacare for 1 round lol.

Edit: The round Carmont won was that on the ground or feet. For some reason i thought it was on the ground but im unsure now.

Luke's not just a talented grappler. He's a phenom who held his own with Jacare. Rockhold's ground game is his strongest aspect.
