That is, lay down a complete and total ass-kicking? Seriously...when you watch Tanner against Terrell, you think that THAT is the type of performance that would be needed to take out Anderson Silva, but we all know that Tanner does not fight like that every time he's in the octagon. Still, I'm excited for the Tanner/Grove fight and am predicting and a victory from Tanner via stoppage.
Yes. And I expect it.
Tanner was just quoted as saying that Grove does NOT like pressure put on him and we all know that if Tanner is on that night that is exactly what he can bring to the fight....looking forward to this one.
It's up to Tanner. I certainly hope so.
tanner needs to stick to his game: takedown and beat down.
Big Tanner fan here and the answer is I sure hope so.
I think Tanner is gonna beat Grove bad. Real Bad. Real Real Bad. Really.
Shouldn't this be the result. I mean, Kendall has looked far from impressive the last few times.
Tanner has to watch out for the submission, but he knows the submission game well enough. I agree...take down and beat down.
tanner all day
tanner will destroy as long as he stays away from the alcohol and all the craziness
GO TANNER!
if evan can't beat grove then its an end to that chapter
I hope he does. Go ET!
just re-watched the Tanner/Terrell fight the other day, one of the classics. Love when Tanner just smiles after getting hit.
I'm looking for a clinc from Tanner.
But then again, huge fan, so biased.
but whatever, War TANNER!!
Tanner has to watch out for knees, the Grove that TKO'd Belcher is very dangerous. Tanner by TKO rd. 2.
He could but he wont. Grove will stop him.
Tanner has some of the most robotic, deliberately slow standup in MMA
I always cringe with the beatings he takes trying to get the clinch
Kendall is long and active, his chin has been exposes but I actually think he might give Tanner fits standing
I hope it looks like the Riggs/Groves fight, but I just have a bad feeling the old Tanner might be done
Tanner By Grown Man Beating, TKO Strikes Rd 2
Tanner can take a beating & keep coming forward. As shown in Franklin 1 & 2. And I dont think Grove has the KO power of Okami or Tito to put him away one shot.
Grove is a product of TV and doesnt deserve to be in the ufc
