Let Tito fight Wanderlei under Japanese Rules, Wanderlei would likely still get grappled but there's the chance of a roid-rage Silva stomping Tito into oblivion

im a casual watcher so hence i suck at mma analysis but wouldn't it be correct to assume that if chael looked that bad against tito that he'd probably get beaten even worse against wanderlei?

i say for chael to go back on the juice hardcore but then again he's been busted twice so maybe they're watching him more closely than anyone else?

tito is bigger than silva and silva absolutely cannot wrestle so it's hard to compare. Chael looked bad though for sure

Tito was responding to Hulk Hogan congratulating him, he took it down to fix spelling mistakes and it originally said "BOOOOTHER" instead of "Brrooother," I think he spelled "foot" wrong too

It was interesting how quickly Ward U-turned on his solemn promise to stand and bang with Daley. He seemed totally sincere at the press conference, I'd be interested to know if it was a ploy to catch Paul out or if he took a couple of shots in the first minute and thought "Nah, gently caress that!"

Ralek should stick to the music thing. Being a tough guy on the mic is a lot less embarrassing.

Tito despite his learning disability is an extremely accomplished submission dude. He won an adcc championships. Tito is probably a real bad match up for Chael as dumb as that seems.

Neither of them can strike and chael has no bottom game.

I was surprised it happened so quick but i dont think chael getting subbed should surprise anyone every.

I know its easy to say after the fight so whatever. but i only saw the odds after the fact and Chael being a 2 to 1 favorite is insane to me, Tito is a bad matchup for Chael and off steroids-Chael looks at least a full weightclass smaller and weaker, plus he hadnt fought in forever and is the more likely of the two to just take his paycheck and not put in an effort

I was drunk at the bar when it happened but I don't remember it being that tight. Like when Tony Ferguson pulls it off it looks good and he leaves no space, Chael had it briefly but it didn't look that threatening.

Not surprised at anything other than how easily Tito grabbed that single as Chael was trying to adjust the choke, seems like he was really attached to getting that sub and ended up on his back as a result.

Fedor is bad and yet would ruin Chael so thoroughly, either he'd take Chael down and break his face or he'd break his arm or something.

Tito defended the D'arce properly by keeping his hips away and his shoulder away from his neck during the D'arce (this is why Chael couldn't get his hands clasped). The arm-in guillotine was just kind of a desperation move, and Chael never really got his hips where he'd need to finish em.

Source: I'm not FD but this is my favourite set of strangles and I've watched tons of vids on em, so I have shitloads of experience going for head-and-arm chokes from front headlock, losing them, and then getting submitted by people whose BJJ is better than mine.

e. here's me asking FD about this position :eng101:

fatherdog posted:

If you're d'arcing, you wouldn't have that arm underhooked, you'd have it overhooked.

I actually get the armbar on the d'arced arm off of them blocking the d'arce using a quarter-nelson turnover into an overhooked armbar.

Do this -

Then drive forward, throw your leg over the body and sit back with the overhooked arm.
