Not manhoef at his best-- he was a worldbeater overseas.

like other overseas MMA/Muay Thai specialists, he preferred the ring to cut angles and the footwork. He was unable to adapt to the cage.

As seen with other ring strikers like Mirko. A lifetime in the ring doesn't translate well.

factoids from reddit -
Andrei Arlovski's 54th MMA Bout, 36th UFC Bout, and 22nd consecutive octagon appearance. Since 1999 Andrei has fought at least once per year, never once embarking on any significant period of inactivity.

Arlovski and Jim Miller have a combined 102 fights, more than the other 18 fighters on the card combined

He got it in with MGK and now this DJ. He's losing relevancy and thrashing around.

He doesn't feel the weight of his own pockets. He has these tens and hundreds of millions and is a relative nobody in 2021. It's a tough pill to swallow losing the reason you made all the money in the first place.

He's going to continue taking out his angst on civilians.

What a champ. He came in on 1 day notice to take on a relative unknown and risked extending his losing streak. I’m happy he finally was able to get one in the winning column.

That poster is fucking terrible.

Would love to see Poirier get the belt, but that's a tough fight for him.

I'm nervous for my boy Masvidal.

Looking forward to DP getting his belt, though. ;)
I don't know man. Oli has looked like a total killer lately and he's elusive as fuck. Not sure DP's "brawling" style matches up well. I want him to win, but I'm not certain he will.

I've only seen a few of Oli's fights and a handful of DP's, but DP isn't Gaethje. He's pretty competent on the ground from what I've seen. I know that Oli's ground game is on another level, but I don't see him totally dominating Dustin on the ground.
