Media Kelvin Gastelum: Sean's Best Attribute is His Grappling

[Wormwood]

Interesting insight/perspective from Kelvin. Kelvin said he has sparred/trained with Sean in the past, and Sean got the better of him. Kelvin said Sean has good striking, but Sean's grappling is his strength...more so than his striking. I was surprised to hear that since Sean seems to be a striker, and likes to put down BJJ. Kelvin goes on to say Dricus thinks he will get the better of Sean in the grappling exchanges, but Kelvin thinks Dricus is going to be surprised if/when the fight hits the mat.

Of course Kelvin and Dricus are different fighters (and size)so who knows how well Kelvin's experience sparring with Sean translates to Kelvin's analysis of Sean vs Dricus.

Kelvin's pick is Sean to win the fight.

*time stamped

Apparently Sean thinks so too.

Bisping always tells a story about him sparring with Strickland back in the day. They strictly kickboxed, Bisping said Sean did quite well for a younger, inexperienced guy.

After the sparring Strickland said' "You think that was good? I'm even better on the ground" lol.

 

[StonedLemur]

Its certainly isn't Kelvins best attribute.

Very true.

 

[StonedLemur]

Very true.

Lol

 

[Koya]

That gives me vibes of all that "Gaethje is a D1 wrestler" pre Khabib fight hype..Red flag

 

[Oldman1]

Translation - Strickland has no ground game

 

[Koala]

Kelvin back on that burrito diet

Strickland has videos with Ankalaev and Eblen in this camp. I guess he didn't bring Eblen not to wrestle

 

[GoshiShun17]

Sean should be a bigger favorite imo. I think he takes this 75% of the time

 

[Poirierfan]

Its certainly isn't Kelvins best attribute.

Lol, it was when they use to spar together, Kelvin was a good wrestler back then. This was before Sean went to Extreme Couture.
