I hear what you are saying man, I am saying the samething but also saying that it shouldn’t be an excuse. Dude was just trained improperly. Hell guys that have all the training in the world still fuck up, especially if they don’t listen to their corner. You did lose me at the whole reverting to basics thing though lol. What, we all supposed to use complicated techniques and whatever and just toss the basics to the side? As far as taking on Silva, that niggas not even in my weight class. lol
Yeah, I watched how he set it up, that’s why I posted to watch for that kick right before he did it lol. I’d fight Silva if they paid me. But he’d have to bulk up.
Bones Jones is still the man. Can’t wait to see him take on Shogun.
I really thought Belfort would give Silva a good fight, but he hesitated for too long. Chael Sonnen showed it best that you HAVE to rush him down and not be afraid.
You just describe an ideal situation for a lot of people. You think you know why it would be good for you to be in that position but what would you do to get in that postion. You see how he likes to move the left and he has great ring awarness. Like you said, easir said than done.
I can kind of understand why Jones is getting the shot over some of the other contenders. There’s just too much talent at 205, they all could beat each other up at any given time for the most part. If you get on a run like Jones is on, where nobody can really touch you, it’s easy to market that fight. Whereas anyone else it’s like “yeah he used to be champ, but didn’t he lose/almost lose/shoulda lost to so and so?” Right now with Jon Jones you aren’t saying that, you’re saying how the fuck does ANYONE beat this guy? Furthermore we’ve already asked how does Shogun beat this guy, is he gonna use his brand new Dana White inspired takedown defense?
I just feel bad for Rock, we already know his man love for Rashad knows no bounds. He must have been fighting back tears all night lol. Speaking of which, do we see Rashad go to 185 if Jon Jones wins the title? Or do we see the UNR version of this recent Silva/Belfort feud?
whatever buddy, you know you’d have gotten your shit kicked into the front row just as easily.
sidebar, the KO’s where the nigga falls to the mat and kinda bounces back up off of their back leg are the best, anytime that happens the ref should just call it immediately, nobody ever comes back from that shit.
That’s the difference between us. I don’t see him as being the greatest anything. He is definitely a superb athelete within the confines of his sport though. It’s all relative anyway, I say let people have their fun hyping shit up. I was just try to throw a little bit of subjective critism in to the mix to see what the response would be.
That being said, who here besides Thurst thinks Anderson would still get whooped by a monkey.
Why? didnt Rashads training partner say that after wrestling with jones he believes that rashad would easily beat him? if jones does beat shogun that doesnt necessarily mean that rashad could too.
