Buckrock101 Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 On 10/5/2018 at 12:41 PM, Buckrock101 said: A little too much is made of Derrick Lewis and cardio problems. He beat Tybura in the 3rd, Browne in the 2nd, Shamil in the 4th, Pesta in the 3rd, Potts in the 2nd, as well as winning a 3 rounder against Nelson. He went 2/3 rounds in a ton of his earlier fights, too. He may not technically have the best cardio, but he knows how to conserve his energy really well, which is basically the same thing. The bigger problem is the back issue. If that's still around, Volkov will almost certainly outwork him and pick him apart. but Derrick's shown he can maintain KO power into the 2nd and 3rd rounds. Not to mention his GNP power, which is life-changing at any time in the fight. bump Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mossburg Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Top 3 all time post fight interview. WTF was Volkov doing there? His brain turned off and he stood in the pocket for like 10 seconds there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glen Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Solid show by Volkov as well. Shame he had to take the L there. Dominated Lewis for 90% of the fight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckrock101 Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Derrick's given a lot of great post fight interviews, but I'm pretty sure that's his best 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All he had to do was circle and not staying in WMD range. Needed to not be a silly goose for 20 more seconds. He got what he deserved.

Pats#1 Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Can’t wait to get home later, take my pants off as soon as I walk through the door, and when my gf asks what I’m doing, tell her “my balls got hot” 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excited to see what he has in store for the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think UFC scheduled this fight directly in the middle for a reason.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
