He was cautious of letting Woodley get close because he's an intelligent human being, he knows Woodley has big power and great wrestling, and he wanted to win the fight. But we saw in both fights, when Wonderboy gets tagged, he doesn't get shy or curl up in a ball. Forget about the clean cut all american look he has, he's a fighter. I didn't impress me against Rory Mac either TBH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's real talented, confident, big, and this is a test to see whether he's really legit or not. But if he pushes the pace on Wonderboy, not sure it will end well. There's a reason guys are tentative when striking with Wonderboy. His counters are incredible, he'll pull the matador act on you and land a strike from a ridiculous angle. It's not like he only has success because people let him stand on the outside. Agreed. Till can win although a 49-46 decision would shock me if it wasnt in Wonderboy’s favor.

Scalamania Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Kamaru Usman is trash - boring, uninspiring fighter who has an excuse after every snoozer performance (which is the norm for him). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I missed that one. that fight was the lowlight of that mega NY card. he just outpointed him masterfully. wasn't very fun. thompson didn't play to masvidals strengths.. stayed outside for 15 minutes and just did his game/moved around/karate ****. i dont think masvidal ever got anything going. so he looked good. or maybe not. could be lying, who knows. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would think this should be a striking clinic but Wonderboy fights scared and tends to keep distances making fights boring asf. On the other hand Till likes to push the pace with his striking and could force Wonderboy to actually fight. Prediction Till by UD probably 49-46 Wonderboy very decisively. im still not on the Till bandwagon. besides the cowboy murking, he looked like kinda ho-hum in all his other fights. i dunno. i like him, but just not really sold until he looks impressive again sunday. also think this fight's gonna be boring. but still excited for it. if till wins he can be really fun.

Also would be weird to not fight that hard when that results in more kicks/punches to the face. Also I pretty sure he 5-0'd that fight, so pretty neutralizing.

They stood at distance jab, jab nothing. Rory was tentative and WB took 0 chances. If that's considered "neutralized" than I don't know what to say.

I just want confirmation about his hands. If he didn't in fact break both hands, then I'll give him the benefit of the doubt for this one but yea he is usually uninspiring.

Yeah, when Rory can't do anything but try and dive for a leglock from standing position, I think that counts as neutralizing him pretty well.
