Re: UFC 246
Fight, they all said, not fights. It all feels like boxing/WWE when conor shows up. Imagine being a casual and inviting all your friends over for the conor fight. maybe you catch the holly co-main. ouch.
Most people don't understand MMA. They think it's some sort of Hulk Hogan thing. Or they more than often just replace their lack of knowledge with what they've seen in movies.
It reminds me of the Aldo fight. Live I almost thought Aldo tripped and the ref called it early. But of course that's not what happened. Cowboy probably had a good gameplan. - What I'm seeing is a Cowboy that must have trained to shoot on the first commited left cross. - Conor must have trained for a knee in defence of takedowns. - Cowboy clinches (which is good. Both first moves we saw from Cowboy are grappling related.) -Conor does his weird ***: "back forward, back forward." -This is the part that gets to me. Granted, cowboy got kneed pretty good, and those shoulders busted him up. But 5 seconds prior Cowboy throws a head kick: Probably not thinking it will do much more than get a little respect. Now, boys and girls, what's the first thing we expect after throwing a leg kick in EA UFC 3? that's right, a leg kick back. It baffles me a bit that this Muay Thai expert throws a naked kick, only to be caught off-guard when Conor returns it. How do I say this... Conor is very good at fighting awkwardly, manipulating the rythm. Instead of a 1-2. you go: feint 1--2. Hard to explain without using boxing glosssary. Cowboy is also clearly compromissed (how did he survive that knee?). But whyyy are you leaaaning into his left side?? (writes the fat man on the couch). Cowboy is still great, and I think he has some top fights left in him. He was just terribly missmatched and compromissed from the very first shot. Last edited by MacGowan; 01-20-2020 at 01:52 PM. |
