So you’re trying to talk out of both sides of your mouth. On one end you’re saying he went in “solely as a kickboxer” (your words) but when I point to cross training you’re like ya that doesn’t count tho. If you’ve been training mma for 5 years with grappling and wrestling that means your cross training. It’s like Demian Maia, his main weapon is Jiujitsu, but he’s became a competent striker and wrestler but to say he’s a pure Jiujitsu guy means is false. To say he’s mostly jiujtitsu is false.
If you were to rate him: Alex stand up is an A and his wrestling defense and Jiujitsu are C level for mma. He’s competent. Which is why he didn’t get subbed by Jan or jiri.
If he was F level in both like James toney , he would never get up from takedowns or defend them.
No you just don't understand anything i say because you have the intelligence of a garden slug. Alex is primarily a kickboxer, he fights as a kickboxer, his gameplan is always to kickbox for obvious reasons and he has an amateur level ground game for when he inevitably gets taken down. Does it make me wrong that when he has been taken down he's avoided being subbed and gotten back up? No it doesn't. It just means the guys who got a kickboxer to the ground and couldn't finish someone with the ground game of a white belt should be embarrassed.
Why do you keep bringing up James Toney? Lol Toney fucked around and found out with Couture, yes i watched it, and it went exactly as i knew it would. Do you want a medal for bringing up Toney calling Couture a princess and then losing? Weird but ok.
