As you can see, it was just them joking around.  There is a real problem when dealing with someone of Bjornsson's mass.  He's not only HUGE, but look at how ripped he is.  Large guys don't usually get that sculpted, which means there is REAL strength (go figure, he's a world's strongest competitor).  You'd have an incredibly tiny hit box where you would have to punch and kick him to get him down.  I have a feeling a body punch would tickle him...Unless its someone who either has the raw hand speed, mass and/or strength to move him.

The Physics are against McGregor.  He would have to land a ton of punches and kicks to vital areas, or disable his eyes or something.  I would not want to get in close to him though.  I don't doubt a pro-MMA fighter is pound for pound one of the nastiest human beings on the planet, but all he has to do is wrap you up and fall on you until you pass out.  God forbid if he were to land a power shot...

Technique can get you so far, but I don't think someone that size could really do enough to win a REAL fight with someone that HUGE.  Now of course, if you hit a guy with a glass jaw in the jaw, things are really different.

      This season only ends one way... We win this Sunday. Bryce is decent. We take back 1st place...   Only to then get our brakes blown off in the last two weeks.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      Here's one of the most maddening things, that will be shown in full light over the next three weeks. The same people around here that called Darnold a bum and Mayfield a washed up over draft are also the ones saying Bryce is a catastrophe. Yeah, and I've been one who said Bryce wasn't big enough, brave enough or capable enough. I said back in the day that Darnold had a lot of fight in him and got shouted down. And on Mayfield, heck I didn't know, I just knew we had a very, very bad team that was run terribly. But I saw both of those guys go out there and resurrect their careers and be play-off bound since shaking the Carolina clay dust off their cleats. And we sat there and cat called their cars as they pulled out of the parking lot, laughing at what nobodies they were. Over the next three weeks, those two guys may just serve us sh!t sandwiches and then settle down to their just desserts. And then we'll probably let Bryce go off into the realm of other teams. And when that happens, will we see him coming back, better than before and we're left to re-sit this cycle all over again? Same naysayers, same results, same revolving carousel of ponies and pundits?  Will we end up looking like the Temu version of the San Diego Chargers back in the day watching Drew Brees come to fruition in the previously moribund Superdome while we whiff on a Manning pick just to be jilted for Phillip "Always a Bridesmaid" Rivers?
