Super random, and if you're saying Holloway is bad on the ground, super false too. I think you might be drunk, mate His "ground game" is sprawling with an occasional attempt at a guillotine. His ground game is mediocre, just like Conors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nate's BJJ is underrated. Nates bjj is the most over and underrated thing in mma. His bjj is good and he is good off his back but hes not scary good. Nate would have virtually no chance against ben. Ben is a terrible matchup for nate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because he was 20 years old in that fight. This is quite baffling. I have never heard anyone rip on Holloway's grappling before. It's not remotely close to meme-worthy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because something shares similar principles and is grappling based doesnt make it the same thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was a huge fan of his when I first saw him fight but like you said ALL THREE losses have been pretty much the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea and I’ll admit i gave him the benefit of the doubt bc we all know he HATES TJ so we assumed he’s young and got emotional bc its TJ but he had no extra ill-will towards Pedro 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

11sanchez11 Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 To be fair Pedro not going out is crazy. Dude got caught clean multiple times and just ate them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He may very well have been out for a second there and Herb's job is to protect the fighter. I'll always take an early stoppage over a late one, that's for sure.

beekay414 Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 (edited) Just watched Garbrandt-Munhoz. WTF are you doing Cody? You looked like someone playing UFC 3 on PS4 just loading up on haymakers. That was beyond dumb. Munhoz has never been knocked out and has shown to have a chin in the past and your response is to stand there and trade with him? Why? He needs to go back to fighting exactly how he did vs Dom. Use your speed and technique and the power shot will come. By deciding to negate your own strengths by standing in front of a lesser fighter with the better chin, you become vulnerable. Dude is just a dumb fighter sometimes. This is your job, take your emotion out of it. Edited March 5, 2019 by beekay414 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically Robbie wasnt getting out of that and if he did he was going to be in a very bad position in side control. I think he did go out for a second there. Rogan and Brendan mentioned on JRE that your natural instinct to fight a choke isnt to let you arms go limp or even put them down for that matter. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
