How do you explain it? Experience is a HUGE factor. It's part of the reason why a guy like Olives could come back and get the belt. It's part of why a guy like Poirier can still finish a hot contender in spite of getting owned for most of the fight.
I mean, of course it helps that...
Probably not a popular opinion, but after Panty's recent performances, I can see Henry beating him.
EDIT: Read some other posts and was reminded that Henry ain't making weight. So it's a pointless thread. But IF he could make weight without being too depleted, I'd put money on Henry.
Honestly, Smith has some slick grappling. He's above average in terms of grappling ability for MMA.
But Poatan trains with Glober who is no slouch. The same Glober who beat the brakes off Smith.
If Alex has truly achieved black belt level under Glober and Co, I can see Alex suprising...
LMAO this is hilarious. I take it you're a manosphere guy? Sorry if I'm wrong. It just strikes me that way. Your arguments are so extreme they don't quite make sense in the context of the discussion. "Don't have opinions on MMA fighters. Become a millionaire instead!" LMAO. It really...
I don't think he'll ever surpass how hard he ducked Ngannou. Dude legit didn't fight ANYONE for YEARS. He finally accepted a fight once Ngannou left. To me, that will always be his biggest duck.
I think he's ducking Aspinall too, but at least he's trying to make it seem like he's...
Man, I love Aldo. His recent win was impressive, but I don't think he has what it takes to get the strap back. Best I can hope for are more fun fights. Maybe even a couple more T/KO's. But I don't see him getting the strap back. I'd certainly jump out of my seat and scream if he pulls...
I like it. Not a fan of guys shitting on fighters who fight outside of the UFC. Strikeforce guys came into the UFC and did really well. Some Bellator boys have come to the UFC and done well. Became champs! Star power is pretty irrelevant in the fight game outside of ticket/PPV sales...
I don't see it as punishment. I see it as building him up slowly. Dude is kind of a loose cannon. Doesn't speak English. I think he'll start to get tougher competition either later this year or early next year. But the lower tier fights aren't necessarily a punishment. I think they're...
Haha. I really can't tell if you're joking.
But hey, for other people reading who don't understand:
It's a common comedic device.
In this example, obviously, Dana is not killing the fighters for losing or making them fight to the death. But using the Mike VIck situation as a...
Weird takes in this thread. Have y'all never seen a roast? They exaggerate situations for comedic value. It's not meant to be taken as a literal malicious personal attack.
Everyone in the audience is in on the joke. Relax guys. You watch a sport where guys are trying to cause...
Fair point. But historically, this is more of a freak occurrence than a common problem. I feel like the glove design is a bigger problem (because of eye pokes). So sure, MAYBE the ankle sleeves may have contributed to that gash, but it's not a common enough problem to make considerations...
Maybe I’m crazy. But I think Erceg is feeling the flying knee/. Might see it in the 5th. But his confidence is shaky. He’s being pretty gun shy, But from the way he’s moving his feet when panty is backing up, I think he wants that flying knee. But I’m drunk.
Respect to pantoja’s chin.
Erceg Losing steam and confidence it seems.
Not loving the fight. I djnt care who wins. I just want the most violent fighter to win:
Panty making this kinda boring so I’m leaning for Erceg for the violent efforts.
