Buckrock101 Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Usman's striking defense is kinda suspect. no head movement at all. but I'm not sure there's anyone outside of Woodley (and GSP I guess) at 170 who can exploit that without getting taken down and grinded out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

11sanchez11 Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 didn't know there was fights tonight might as well give rda askren next to complete the gauntlet of dominant ground and pound wrestlers (khabib, colby, usman, and then askren) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonderboy's shown great ability to avoid grappling situations in the past, but I don't know if he can do it against a guy of Usman's level.

Buckrock101 Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 so Usman - Wonderboy is the fight to make right now, for me. though if Woodley and Colby fight at 233, I couldn't argue with Usman getting the winner of that one. we're still yet to see someone who can survive Usman's grappling. guy has earned a chance to prove it against the best now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That fight was really odd (from Caraway at least). He just went balls to the wall zero defense from the word go. The commentators kept saying that he was in a good place and had put the **** in his life behind him, but I don't buy it. He looked like a guy in a dark place who wanted to go out and get the **** beaten out of him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usman is no where near as explosive or have the movement to do the same. Like i said i think wonderboy lights him up because unlike RDA he knows how to move laterally.

JaguarCrazy2832 Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Wonderboy vs Usman would be a fun one. Usman just hasn't ever been tested by anyone. The best MMA guys always seem to have 1 of if not both of these characteristics: 1. Can you take your opponent down? 2. Can you stop yourself from being taken down. I can't think of anyone that is one of the greats that doesn't have one of these components. I know its called MMA but without some sort of wrestling background or at least strong TDD you won't go far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
