I dunno, I mean this was after the second Cain fight... He still looked pretty good. And he still beat Rothwell, Lewis, and Taivasa after this even. I think he is just aging, damage catching up to him, and the competition getting better and better. You could say he was pretty much done after he fought Francis. And then the shoulder injury in his last fight.

The damage he took accumulated but in his prime he was genuinely capable of beating ANYONE. And that fact that he’s the ONLY man with legitimate wins over both a prime Cain AND prime Stipe (both considered GOAT ufc HWs) speaks for itself. I think a prime JDS would fvck Jon Jones up and give Francis and Aspinall real problems.

Absolute fucking war. Underrated heavy weight fight

One of the most underrated heavyweight fights...when a heavyweight fight gets Fight of the night bonus you know it's a good fight

People forget how good Dos Santos really was! He was excellent at using his boxing skill in the cage and he was an underrated fighter because he preferred to stand and punch. Everyone calls Stipe a wrestler but he was a golden gloves boxing champ before he did MMA and he used his boxing a lot in the cage!

JDS in his prime truly was one of THE greatest all time heavyweights in mma history. The only thing I can think of when criticizing his skillset is lack of head movement, he ate more shots than he should have and eventually all that damage piled up and he simply wasn’t that same fleet-footed iron chinned killer anymore. But his resume is impeccable: Legit wins over a prime Cain, prime Stipe, prime Shane Carwin, also beat former K1 champion Mark Hunt in a striking battle with a fucking spinning back kick KO, and even in his twilight years managed to beat Tuivasa, Lewis, and Rothwell on top of stuffing every one of Curtis Blaydes’ takedown attempts. His chin just couldn’t keep up with the battering but a prime JDS could beat ANY HW (including the current cream of the cop) on any given night.

Very evenly matched! Lots of back and forth. Both these guys are awesome fighters.

Back when JDS was Badass

AMBOS OS LUTADORES ESTAVAM COM QUEIXOS DUROS, NINGUÉM QUERIA BEIJAR A LONA E SER NOCAUTEADO, "DOS SANTOS" LEVOU A MELHOR, BATALHA ÉPICA ONDE OS DOIS FORAM VENCEDORES, ENTREGARAM TUDO QUE PODIAM NO OCTOGONO. PARABÉNS, FOI UM ESPETÁCULO! 🎉🎉

Most underrated fight ever.

Both been strong, both been rigid and both having mutual respect knowing each other's strength. What a fight! 👍👍

What a fight! Junior is monster, resilient af

Had no clue these guys ever threw down. Nice work, FreddieJack.

Dos Santos (same as Velasquez fighting Ngannou) was long after his prime. Stipe is great but Junior was much better at his time!

Although jds got the knockdown I thought stipe definitely did more damage to the face and backed jds up a lot more. I had it 3-2 stipe tbh. Am I crazy?
