Vinny is super legit. I trained with him. Big guy SUPER smooth jits n he submitted Drysdale before. Dude is a great choice. Plus hes very 10th planet friendly. Just won last years abudabi.
I dont' think it will be enough. After watching Chael's recent performance against Bisping, I don't think he'll fare well against Anderson. I think Chael/Spider 2 will look a lot like the Okami fight. But at the very least, Vinny should be able to teach Chael some solid triangle defense. But I don't think that will be enough.
Its not like Silva goes for a wide variety of submissions. So IF Chael can use the same game plan by taking Silva down for 25 mins then he might be able to keep himself out of submission danger. But if the rib injury is what really made it difficult for Silva to stop the takedowns, which I doubt is the case because Lutter took him down, then this might be a short night for Chael.
Silva is gonna destroy Sonnen he looked terrible against Bisbing plus now Silva has alot of motivation to win in a big way I see it ending ugly for Chael
I'm surprised anyone in JJ wants anything to do with Chael after all his trash talking.
Doesn't this kinda make him lose credibility?
I mean...what's left of it?
Saying bjj is crap, now he is training for it.
Of course for me, this gives him more credibility.
At least he can admit he is lacking on the ground through action. (though it'd still be better if he said it)
He's been training BJJ for years. Don't believe his trolling. Hell, he was darce choking people way back in Bodog.
