Ross Pearson now has Siver.

Tough, tough fights for both men.

[Collateral damage]

Oops thought I posted the link.....

Tough fight for Etim. Dos Anjos has been very impressive in his UFC fights, even in his loses

[Valour5]

Gutted because I really rate Dos Anjos.

I dont think he's the mug that the first poser made out :rolleyes: and it's a potentially really tough fight for Terry... imho Dos Anjos has better Jitz than Tibau & Clementi

Rafael is damn good and no way Terry subs him.

Tough fight for him and I'm thinking Rafael by either UD or late sub. His takedowns and top game are too good IMO.

[Predator]

Pearson is going to lay down some Rough house revenge on Siver.

Its gonna be a beatdown!

[Stu]

Just to lighten the mood surrounding Dos Anjos, let's not forget this...

BOOM! Favourite KO of all time.

Yep - Dos Anjos is a really tough fight. Can't look past him.

Bout is agreed and I've been told (http://www.mmaunltd.com/news/details.asp/id/1249/etim-vs-dos-anjos-at-ufc-112.htm) will be signed today.

ok, so dos Anjos is prob better on the ground, good thing Terry is pretty good on his feet then huh ;)

no doubt a tough fight, but same as the Winner fight, Terry has enough on the ground to not get in any real danger with him, and too much standing up..

[Collateral damage]

When Terry fought Shannon Gugerty - people were was saying how good SG was on the ground and would sub Terry - Terry's ground game is under-rated. Not to mention Sub of the night on his last 2 fights...

On his feet he would pick Dos Anjos apart.

Team Kaobon!

I agree I think Terry's ground game is seriously underrated, I imagine if you asked his team mates theyd tell you his ground game was easily as good as his stand up.I may be wrong, but hes been training on the ground a bit longer than he started MT.What level in Lutre Livre is Terry now?I noticed a while ago that people Marcello brigadaire (sorry spelling) regarded as blue belts in LL would easily have been purple belts under bjj instructors some maybe better?

Terry is an LL blue belt and Briga does not hand out belts like sweets!

[TheFreak]

Dos anjos is no joke on the ground but i think Etim has the skill set to beat him and carry on climing the lightweight ranks.

[S*nScum]

everyone on this site has there own opinions.

but lets get behind the lad.

terry has under-rated skills on the ground, but he always seems to prove everybody what hes got, the lad is a serious contender. stand-up or on the ground i love watchin terry win fights.

terry by whatever comes on the night.

dos Anjos is pretty good on the feet, it was either Matt Wiman or Rob Emerson(someone like that) who he raped with legkicks.

Dos Anjos is a really good fighter and just the right step up for Terry imo.Dos Anjos is certainly no joke,I had him ahead against Stephens before the big uppercut of doom and he had Tyson Griffin in some trouble with that leg compression thing he did.He seems a pretty decent striker aswell but obviously not to the extent Etim is.

Tough but winnable fight for Terry.

Yeah it was Emerson at UFC 102 I think.Absolutely battered his legs with kicks to the point there were big visible welts all over them.

I can't see him trying this with Terry though.Too good a striker and too much reach to be playing around with leg kicks.

[Jim_Williams]

Yea for sure.

dos Anjos is a lot worse than Sam Stout on the feet and Terry had his way with him.

I want it to go to the ground though, Thatd be interesting.

[wandshogun09]

It would be interesting and I've no doubt Terry could at least hold his own but obviously his easiest root to victory is to keep it standing.

The Stout fight was a great performance.I was a tad surprised how he just completely outclassed a really good striker like Stout.I knew Terry was a great striker but that fight opened my eyes how good he really is.

Massive difference between dos anjos and gugerty on the ground, ( gordo bb and rio champ>dean lister brown belt)
But i think terry by tko standing or dos anjos decision or submission.

[IranianWarMachine]

Yea for sure.

Wasn't stout vs terry a split decision?

[AdamB]

Wasn't stout vs terry a split decision?

Unanimous :)
