Death touch available at will. Unlike a Ford Escort, no wind up needed.
Nullifies all grappling at will. Olympic-level.
Master tactician. Clever and unpredictable.
Master of psychological warfare. Made Ngannou his child.
 
I was actually thinking that Lewis has a lot of wins against way better fighters.

Blaydes, Volkov, Ngannou... they're like ten times better. That's sad.
 
You watched all the fights on the main card yesterday?

Aspinall was taking clean shots from Arlovski, chin looked very good, not sure how Derrick doesn't get choked out.
 
OP would you have said that prior to his Blaydes fight? It's not like we learned anything new about Derrick Lewis yesterday.
 
uhm... he just stands up.
he does not believe in jitsu

He sank that choke (it was really a neck crank) in within 5 seconds, there was no time for arlovski or anyone to get up.

Look at what happened when Derrick fought Ilir Latifi, was dominated for two rounds. But that fight never happened according to the MMA media; was a dominant victory for Derick in his hometown.

You can beat anyone when you have insane power like BB does. Doesn't really matter if all those guys are technically more skilled or in better shape. All it takes is one bomb to land flush and you are going to dream land. Natural power is an important aspect of the fight game. BB and Francis have demonstrated that quite bit in their UFC run (and Carwin before that)
 
I think Dericks a great fighter but a terrible martial artists.

On top of that, he’s pretty ballsy. Doesn’t give a fuck, big, durable, a good puncher and has natural power in his hands.

But he loses to guys who are skillful enough to avoid all of that.

Of course he can, but it becomes a lot more difficult when an opponent of his can take his shots even when he winds up.

Not all chins are made equal, just like not all punchers are made equal. We have seen fighters get hit by Derrick clean and not go out like Curtis did, several, and we know how Derrick fights when he is afraid of his opponents power.

Would be interesting to see Derrick fight Aspinall.

you mean the +1600 sub that aspinal hit on AA?
the half front naked choke with no hooks in?
(looks at your username really hard)

It looked like a neck crank, hence why Arlovski tapped so fast, but I will take your word for it.

Yeah, that line was very nice, and stupid considering he took his last opponent down as soon as the guy pressured him.

Yes I think he could submit TBB, knock him out, make him tap.

I still remember when Derrick lost to Ilir Latifi and was gifted a decision win inexplicably in his hometown; one year ago.
