The mma thread. UFC Fight island is real: Everybody died

Talking all that smack only to get hit with a Tiger Genocide after going for a takedown with your eyes closed in the first 2 seconds of the first round. I never understood the hype over Ben Askren.

The hype is his style was pretty crazy for mma. He wasn’t touched for so long.

I’m low key mad chiesa didn’t finish Diego. He legit flow rolled him to a decision. Their were so many changes he should have finished him.

For anyone that didn’t see it.

That would require Wink to actually get Jon to commit to seriously training and not fuck around. That ain’t happening.

Askren is a dope wrestler but that’s it. He’s just a wrestler with overrated submissions over lesser opponents. His game has not evolved in the past decade as we can see he can’t strike worth a damn with non-existent footwork. Most of the time, Ben would just backride people to death or until they leave their neck open for a Bulldog Choke/Neck Crank.

i agree his striking aignt shit
but that knee lmfao. i think alot of people woulda caught it. like it was a double knee move
his left came up but his right was the tiger knee lol

I might just put Masvidal up there. I like Holly and Amanda so they might be excluded. LOL!!! Seriously though, I think would benefit a camp change.

Masvidal is right. The same people bitching about his celebration put on the kneepads for Conor’s bullshit.

I’m still in shock at how sloppy Askrens shot was.

No setup, no strikes, no level change, bent at his waist and arms outstretched


That was a fucking arrogant attempt. I guess he figured Masvidal would rush in and all he had to do was get a hold of him.

He deserved to get starched.
