That wild left hook would have Ko'd a ****ing Hippo.
Hell yh man that would have Ko'd a freaking dinosaur. And what makes it even scarier is he can take a shot, cuz Reem clipped him clean with an overhand in that exchange too. You can't and don't wanna trade blows with that guy. I'm personally scared for Stipe lol

Max Holloway v Jose Aldo

I want to favor Aldo here based on leg kicks but Holloway is a safer pick based on vigor, cardio, etc.

Aldo was arguably winning the first two rounds of their first fight before gassing and getting finished late.

Holloway invests in those body shots like Aldo with leg kicks.

This comes down to who manages their output enough to survive to the championship rounds if it gets there. Based on history, Holloway has better odds to achieve that goal.

Watching that ko again, that punch kills overeem in a street fight.

JDS still does. he has great boxing technique. You won't see Ngannou throw crisp boxing combinations like JDS.

It's hard to dismiss Ngannou's natural striking ability at this point though. His timing and accuracy is on point. I think Stipe has a solid chance of outboxing him but it might just be the first guy that lands flush. That title fight is going to be so hype.

Max reach is just tough to deal with. Aldo getting dragged into slugfest now he's gassing. Max easily finished him.
