What... what about his game reminds you of DDP?

The level of aggression, his defence is just a touch sharper which I think negates his opponents offence instead of just eating their best shots.

Tavares outlanded him in the second round, Rodriguez clearly took the round off, it showed in the third.

Not that complex

Did he though? I think the stats would reflect a reasonably even round in terms of sig strikes with a small edge (less than 5 strikes) to Tavares at best. I could be wrong.

 

[NicholasJBasile]

Not bizarre at all, not sure why you hate Tavares..he seems like a good guy

Yeah it was a good stoppage after watching the replay

 

[Yashabo]

Heem stoppy<mma2>

 

[Pechan]

He had some success in the second, I kinda don't know what DC and Cruz were talking about.
Sure he was landing shots, but he was getting his leg chewed up and Robocop was landing back with more power. It seemed an even round with an edge to Robocop.

Honestly Brad is probably their friend, they were even talking about how Tavares can finish the fight at any moment, dude is a decision machine.

 

[CasualBot]

Firing those finishing punches methodical as fuck like a hydraulic piston.

woah, fuckin weird timing of nomenclature...

hydraulic piston is spot on

 

[DiddlyDoodly]

Robocop looks like he is wearing a headband, but he isn't.

 

[heavyarms21]

Robocop sounds like he's 50

 

[helax]

Hobocop is for the people!

 

[JudoThrowFiasco]

Greg's size to cardio ratio is freaky

 

[LiQuiD42]

Rodriguez is a specimen. Dude is eating stem cells for breakfast. Respect.

 

[europe1]

Tavares has a real coconut head. Feels so strange only the Edmund protoge has finished him before this

 

[KarateYeah]

Yeah it was a good stoppage after watching the replay

Cheers sherbro!

 

[TGArthur]

Look at that amazing company culture the UFC creates

 

[Sixstring]

In slow motion to can really see it was a legit stoppage.

 

[heavyarms21]

All Glory for Jesus for letting knock this foo out

 

[Fact Checker]

Man they just showed Tavares head getting bounced off the fence with every shot he ate… impressive chin.

 

[Eternalwarriorking]

Sheeeesh! Rodriguez just blew up Tavares face with that combo!


Tavares is a liability to himself for staying upright eating those.

A great encyclopedia entry under "too tough for his own good", definitely. Those were massive, brain-scrambling shots

 

[Luthien]

I can bang <LeeOne01> I love this guy hehe

 

[NicholasJBasile]

I have to disagree. That was a good stoppage. Not everyone needs to go out on a faceplant.

Agreed -- watched the replay and it was a good stoppage.
