Yes, keeping his hips away from Demian Maia, who never met a takedown he actually liked.

Maia gets bodylocks and clinch/trip takedowns, but he's not shooting for anyone's hips on the regular.

keeping your hips away is also good defense against clinching and bodylock takedowns lol

I think in the Maia fight he was banking on going at a pace that Maia could not possibly keep up with. So coming forward lunging with bullshit punches he didn't care about landing worked out in the end, because Maia did gas out and lose. Not saying he's a good striker by any means and doing that against RDA is a really bad idea if it doesn't lead to him getting in on RDA's hips and making it a grinding wrestling match.

In the sport of fake fighting, they have a format called "tag team".

Also, I felt kind of bad for Andrei Arlovski going in there with Tai Tuivasa, but since Andrei just said that he thinks the idea of drinking a beer out of a shoe is disgusting, I now hope he gets smashed into next week. gently caress that guy.

I think it's more likely that he's just a bad fighter who managed to lose a round kickboxing against Damien loving Maia.

I didn’t know who those women were, so I looked them up, and apparently AJ made CM go to the doctor and get his rear end-lump examined.

Guys I just found out CM Punk is a WWE wrestler with no real training from a guy at work and he also got rear naked choked like 120 seconds into his first fight and got taken down first move, never stood back up and is a loving joke lmao

He also was paid 500K for that fight so jesus titty sucking christ wtf UFC
