Jota posted:it is a shame cody kept losing his discipline god drat TJ is a killer Yea he really needs to learn discipline and patience. If you didn't KO him in the one or two punches don't just charge and stand there swinging like a madman.

chaleski posted:Since when does defending your belt once against the guy you took the belt from make you the GOAT? The argument would be theres been two guys who've looked nigh invincible at bantamweight cruz and barao. Dj destroyed barao and knocked out the guy who destroyed cruz twice in less than 3 rounds. I would think tj needs to fight (again) and beat cruz to cement that legacy but even then... tj has looked better than anyone else imo.

TJ is undefeated aside aside from the one other guy even considered for Bantam Goat and has far more finishes against people at the top Dom never thought or lost to.

Rematch Cruz and Garbrandt and see if Cruz makes the adjustments.

I honestly wonder if this would have been a different pair of fights if garbrandt came out with a more patient plan like against cruz than the raw emotion he used twice when facing TJ. I know if you choose to fight that way and lose its all on you but gotta wonder.

I must have drank a lot in 2014 and 2015 because I remember Renan Barao being an absolute killer and I don't remember TJ being the guy to kill him

Andy Dufresne posted:The guys at 135 really look like they are in a different sport than 125. I don't have a lot of confidence in either DJ or Cejudo moving up DJ was basically saying he wasn't being paid nearly enough to consider moving up, TJ was gonna (try to) come down to him. If TJ ends up wiping the floor with Cejudo at 135, I still would definitely want to see that.

Stealth Tiger posted:For all the technique and fight IQ that TJ has, it is important to remember that this motherfucker can stand and bang with you too goddammit so get hosed you want a war you can get a loving war look at this loving finishing instinct Who is better than TJ Dillashaw when it comes to cutting angles at boxing distance? He might've dropped that decision to Cruz only because he didn't have a strategy for what to do about the way Cruz fought from way outside, halfway across the octagon. Exchanging with him in the pocket seems like suicide unless you have an iron head like Lineker. He's won two brutal stoppages apiece against Renan Barao and Cody Garbrandt because they bit down and tried to swing with him. edit: Le Saboteur posted:loving Cody starts winging shots in there like he's the second coming of Chuck Liddell with the chin of late Liddell. the thing of it is, that worked for Cody against everybody else he fought because he has the hand speed and power to turn a bad risk into a sure thing against most people. TJ is just on another level when it's in a phone booth. Schenck v. U.S. fucked around with this message at 06:04 on Aug 5, 2018 |

I remember he got sloppy one time early on against Cruz and he got cracked, but that just reminded him to be disciplined. But I'm not trying to say Cody fought stupid against other people, I think he had an instinct that once the guy is hurt, he can go in and finish the job. I'm probably thinking mostly of what he did to Almeida.

If Cody wasn't so obsessed with anger and avenging the death of Uriah's feelings he might not have been charging in like someone who didn't think his opponent could punch

Dan Didio posted:Almeida’s a largely stationary target with little head movement and a weak chin. at the time they fought Almeida was 20-0 (16 by t/ko and 3 by submission) I'm probably expressing this idea poorly, but what I'm trying to say is I think Cody is physically gifted with speed and punching power, and he lost to TJ twice in a row in basically the same way because no one else ever really made him pay for taking bad risks in a brawl.
