Mr. Nice! posted:I won't be surprised with Maia outgrappling anyone ever especially after hearing Frank Mir praise him so much. For those that haven't heard, Frank Mir's response when asked about rolling with Maia was "oh yeah he totally raped me. He could have had his way with me and there was nothing I could do about it." Is maia also his wifes name

masvidal made himself look legit by beating up two old guys and another out of class LW in cerrone but hes really not a stud ww IMO

Marching Powder posted:I get wha you're saying but arguably beating Larkin and Maia makes you a stud at ww. Masvidal will be remembered for all the great fighters he arguably beat. maia and larkin are beneficiaries of people leaving and getting old/mentally breaking

Marching Powder posted:His destruction of magny was impressive JaySB posted:I dunno if you can call Donald Cerrone an out of class LW after he bodied 4 tough people at WW.... Im probably going too hard in the other direction. but Um yeah I think cerrone, magny, masvidal and maia are all beneficiaries of a lot of guys flaming out at once story, ellenberger, condit, kampmann, hendricks, etc. was a superior group of dudes in their primes, imo. These guys picked them off as they aged out from being beaten up n stuff. I think that class of WWs we saw with the guys i meantioned plus pyle, peirce, brown, and so on. THats the best MMA has been so far, IMO.

david carmichael posted:all those dudes except Hendricks and pierce were good not great. Hendricks was great/elite, pierce was flat bad. Maia is great, Cerrone is great and will retire with some fun records, masvidal has potential he hasn't realized utter disagree cerrone was a great lw. agree hendricks was great. if maia was great it wouldn't have been until now that he broke through Bundt Cake fucked around with this message at 04:08 on May 16, 2017 |

david carmichael posted:Well, Maia is dogshit to watch but beat a pile of fools on your list. Cerrone will never be champ, masvidal will never be champ, but like.... why isn't your list the actual good fighters from that era like Jake shields and rory maias solid, he just didnt stand at the top til people like hendricks and condit mental failed, and others got old/left cuz ufc didnt pay up

big money big clit posted:I love Condit so very much, but the man who could not stay upright probably wouldn't have ever beaten Maia in a three rounder. fair but he was in the division the whole time. the rock paper scissors style makes fights game overall favored condit, though. thats why he fought for the title and maia didnt. maia was part of the insanity of that time. hes bisping like in sticking around so long at the almost top level until it pays off

maia and jason macdonald submitted 7 (incl jmac himself) different mws from 06 to 09. ed herman got choked by both.2 were contenders (leben + sonnen) and hermen, lambert, and jay mac were all likely guys to make the next step. then around 2010 munoz, simpson, and maybe 2-3 other guys came and stepped the wrestling up above nate marquardt levels.

big money big clit posted:Condit got his title shot against Lawler after notching one straight win and going 2-3 in his last five. he had a close and great fight with the champ hendricks and the weird L to Woodley. hed already transcended to the top at that point. After you put GSP in legit danger and a good fight for the first time in years, you graduate a little bit.

Unfunny Poster posted:It was a single kick that caused his knee to blow out. I wouldn't say that's an rear end kicking and just a random injury that happened a la Silva breaking his leg in the rematch with Weidman. It's a loss sure, but it's still a random unintended injury that stops the fight mid tempo when neither guy is expecting it to happen. Its totally normal and not weird, thats why it happens almost never

Tezcatlipoca posted:Stipe Miocic just got his leg hosed up by two kicks. Larkin kicked Magney once and he was hopping around on one leg. There are tons of other examples of people getting injured by leg kicks. Alejandro Perez hosed up Scott Jorgensen with a few low leg kicks. Totally agree leg kicks are an effective attack

Tezcatlipoca posted:Fighters almost never get injured from leg kicks if you ignore all the times that fighters get injured from leg kicks. Most of the times it happens though it just extends the beating like the Jorgensen fight and the heavyweight fight on the undercard of 211. It happens all the time is what I'm getting at. Hey. Maybe I didn't make this clear. I don't agree about Woodley v Condit. Its not normal for a guy to get his leg tweaked on a takedown then it breaks when it gets kicked. I don't agree that that is the same as typical leg kicks accumulating or happening in the first round and surfacing later. I don't agree that it is equivalent. I hope this clears up why I think leg kicks are great.

attackmole posted:Honestly I mostly just thought JDS' defense for the fight was poo poo. I dunno if it's a product of being old/beat up but it felt to me like he kept his hands too low without the head movement to survive while doing that. He was landing alright but Stipe was tagging him with everything and he never adjusted. stipe made him look flat footed last time too

Cyborg is and always was a freakshow fighter, even less actually competitive than butterbean, cuz Superheavyweight existed for awhile here and there. No org has ever had legit competition for cyborg. Shes bad and its bad that I have to read about her in the ufc thread
