Yeah but if he hits him that hard it'll end like the Joe B fight

yeah mcgregor's chin stood up to some really big shots, chad got off a few times really well and it barely seemed to phase him

fatherdog posted:If Mighty Mouse hits him hard enough to make him forget he's a Dangerous Muay Thai Fighter now he would stand a chance of wrestlefucking him. It's the first time Johnson's fought a really high level wrestler. I haven't been impressed with his wrestling so far. It seems like he gets a couple of takedowns in his fights that go absolutely nowhere then gets stuffed the rest of the time. I can't tell if he isn't pursuing them because he's fallen in love with his striking or if he just hasn't been able to transfer his skills to mma. It's weird because he's beaten good fighters but somehow has been really unimpressive while doing it.

I am looking to do everything right. I am a dangerous fighter, man. I am ready. My plan is to win and hopefully it will be a knockout, but if not; I plan to put on a show for three rounds.

They were going to do a 4th round in the flyweight tournament incase of a draw, and then there was supposed to be one in mm/McCall but someone couldn't do math

For all the problems with Pride rules, I think the Magny/Gastelum fight stands as a great example of a fight that is a fairly clear cut Magny in UFC or Gastelum in Pride kind of a win. Not that it really matters, but I've been watching through all the old Prides for the first time and sort of fallen in love with their fogginess over objective metrics in favor of more emotionally satisfying judges' calls in fights where people make good adjustments or gutsy comebacks.

The only way I can think of that makes the "holly was holding back" thing work is that maybe their camps were less intense so she would feel fresher for preparing for Ronda? I can't imagine them really going into the fight intending to barely win. with judging being so random and the risk of lucky shots, it seems too crazy. Maybe they just shut it down in the 3rd, would have to review fights to see. I suspect it's all BS but I've been thinking of how that would work. I know boxers get accused of coasting to wins once they've got the rounds, but that seems hard to do in a 3 round fight.

A better striker that can keep distance and enough size that she can't be rag dolled.

TheRationalRedditor posted:it wasn't because she seemed comparatively skittish against Pennington who has literally no particular strengths That's why I thought Ronda would smash her, she didn't seem like she'd survive the bullrush. I definitely think her first 2 fights were acclimatising to the UFC and not some next level faking.

Dennis Burmudez vs. Maximo Blanco was added to the Cruz vs. Dilly Bar card. Everyone should like this for Burmudez alone, and I know for some strange reason, many of you seem to like Maximo Blanco as well.
