    Roger's stand up is actually pretty decent. He has stopped people before with strikes. His BJJ is amazing though. Beating Buchecha Almieda is a huge feat in itself, and he did it after taking time off, during Buchecha's prime. He just controlled Almieda's collar, staying level with him and...

    Well look at Roger Gracie for example. He was doing pretty well in Strikeforce until he got beat by Lawal. He then lost to Tim Kennedy and retired. He just came back in Japan and is the champion in the ONE promotion I believe, although the competition there is no where near the UFC. Point is...

    And that's kind of the point isnt it? Stuffing takedowns prevents most grappling and 90% of sub attempts, which forces striking to take place. You cant stop striking instances like you can grappling via sprawl, the fight starts standing and if you can keep it there and you can strike, chances...

    I haven't watched a ton of his fights but he isnt terrible from what I've seen. Maybe it's a stretch to say he is a high level striker, but he is at least able to keep guys honest on the feet. He probably isnt the best example, should of mentioned Aldo instead, he is just not who he used to be.

    Another thing I wanted to touch on is the current state of the UFC regarding trends and what's the flavor of the month from a style standpoint. Striking has seemed to have taken over the sport in terms of who is on top. Most of the champions and best fighters are currently strikers for the most...

    That salvo of hooks was actually a beautiful thing to watch. Garbrandt is a very adept offensive striker, able to explode out of nowhere with sustained, varied attacks. The way to counter that is to bite down, hunch your shoulders, stand your ground and unload from a compact stance, countering...

    Conor can beat Khabib. If he gets that second wind he often talks about, I think he can out point Khabib in a 5 round fight. Conor can win by KO or decision. Khabib can only win via decision, as he isnt going to stop McGregor. His pressure fighting and wrestling might win the day, as he is...

    12 to 6 elbow is a stupid rule, but it exists for a reason, as that downward strike to a floored opponent can cause nasty cuts, at least with a side elbow you have to change your arm trajectory and get less leverage. Watching Jon Jones highlights is like watching archived footage of a mythical...

    He has lost some explosiveness, and seems less dynamic and more unsure of himself. He is doing this weird thing now where he just throws caution to the wind and blatantly telegraphs his shots. When he goes back to the measured, calculated Aldo, he does well. That 2 punch body combo was...

    I wondered the same thing about Aldo's post fight reaction. But after thinking about it I think he was happy because he was hurt and survived. He probably thought he was going to get stopped again.

    Aldo iced him with a brutal, digging hook to the midsection. It wasnt a winding, or looping hook or telegraphed liver shot, it was the second punch of a two punch combo that landed right above Stephens' belly button. It was like a body uppercut, but at a slight angle. Beautiful body work.

    I'm just a believer in good acting. I agree they could cast a bunch of no name Australian or English actors and it would still probably be a hit, and some no name actors turn out to be very effective. But a truly quality actor raises the level of quality to heights not reachable otherwise...

    France was a different team in 16, but they had the same coach, the same system and they still has their centerpiece playmakers. Mbappe is obviously a generational talent, so perhaps they are a much different team, as he has cemented himself as a marquee player going forward. Madrid will have...

    I think casting will be crucial. Game of Thrones is wildly successful, and a huge part of that success is due to the quality acting and believability brought to the characters of Asoiaf. Casting can do a lot. Just think of the original Daario and then his replacement. I liked the brown haired...
