It's not just Ishii having bad fight IQ, it's doubling down on training striking and producing this kind of performance.

He's very good. He uses his reach extremely well and hits people on the end of them too.

Magny is past his prime but he's still a good test given he has cardio for days, can wrestle and can drown guys.

If Garry is for real he should dominate this one, but Magny is a tough out for anyone.

It's a shame that Magny seems to have trouble committing to offense when he's getting chipped away at.
He's got 6" of reach on Garry, and could have kept up some pressure upstairs while coming in off line. He knows he has to get inside the kicks, but he won't do it.

Speed edge and precision does him in, just like with Lorenz Larkin.

Also gives Leon Edwards a lot of latitude for talking poo poo about Garry being afraid or looking past him.

Was there a case for the ref calling that fight with Magney hoping around one one leg the entire 3rd round?

Yeah, if nowhere else, then right before Garry took him down for the GNP, when he ate two big head kicks through his guard.

K was confirming I am not crazy. I was surprised he didn't even call a doctor between 2 and 3 to check.

I'm not sure what a doctor would check that would stop the fight. I doubt there were broken bones or torn ligaments/muscle. And he wasn't really rocked to the degree that warranted a stoppage.
It wouldn't be a doctor's call that "yeah dude, you're getting smoked out there."

Weili too comfortable staying on the business end of those rights. Needs to be a bit more conservative getting it to the ground.

3 of those crosses per round could still be enough to get her a win.

Zhang's size deficit on the feet means she has trouble getting her head out of the way coming in with punches. She wants to put a lot of power into the jab and is unwilling to duck to the side earlier.

"Try scoring this"
"As close to an even round as we'll ever see"

Then score it one.

I don't know if you know this, but Aljo is Black.

That shot was a lot like the one conor killed aldo with, yeah?


Not quite. Aldo whiffed a cross but landed his hook, and thus was still fully rotating into Conor's left.
Aljo was coming in on a cross and dropping for a takedown. He flinched away a tiny bit from the power as he saw the counter cross coming.

e: I guess I would conclude, O'Malley left more space for himself to work and got off a much cleaner shot than Conor's.
