Lol at Dana scoffing.
The fact that someone brought it up is basically the equivalent of a band going on tour and needing to play their one good album from 20 years ago instead of their current music.
I wanted the Cruz Aldo fight so bad, but the UFC was smart for not making it now that I am a bit wiser...
It would've killed Cruz's legacy and not given the UFC to make stars off of Cruz.
If you're still wondering what would've happened, just watch Aldo spank Frankie around the cage for 10...
It's the gilded age.
Everything looks good because the UFC and rule makers did to wrestling what the NFL did to defense: made it irrelevant.
Yeah we have flashy strikers and double champs, but don't act like the majority of wrestlers have been screwed by the UFC for being "boring."
Jiri looked like the more naturally talented fighter when it came to speed and mixing things up.
Alex definitely the higher fight IQ and composure.
In this case Orthodox beat unorthodox, but this is one rematch down the road I'd like to see.
Id rather win boring than be winning the fight like Browne, Volkov and countless other opponents who somehow forgot they were fighting the black beast and wake up being a highlight
Hard stat to document. Might be better to just ask for notable standing tko stoppages and give the year. Then you can compile the list.
The one high profile fights from the past where a standing TKO that comes to mind was Rousey vs Nunes (2016)
It's between DJ and Jones
Id give Jones the advantage when it comes to diversity of offensive striking and grappling, and DJ with striking defense and footwork
It's not always about "UFC legacy", it's about freedom. Gets to box, do mma, and a white collar job.
Sure beats working for the UFC for 20 years of your life and then retiring by getting knocked out by YouTubers.
