De Ridder is a top 10 MW maybe top 5. If he can beat Sean he will be in title contention in a few fights
I remember Rulon Gardner. Never been in a fight but he was smart. He developed a piston like jab and beat the shit out of a top Pride fighter.
If he fought smart he should have these by now.
Good straight punches
A good teep
Leg kick defense
Elbows off breaks
Maybe a good Thai plum with knees
These aren’t rocket science moves that he doesn’t have
Bo has looked small compared to his last two opponents. He should try and cut to 170. I know people said it can’t be done but he isn’t the bully at 185
Can’t wait for Khamzat to smesh DDP!
I remember so many people claiming teh last guy would expose him but didnt!
If Hazmat doesn’t take out DDP in the first or second round he is getting KOed
I agree
The craziest part of that was rulon trained like 3 or 4 sessions total for that fight.
Parsons came up with the game plan, showed him how to jab. Rulon came in a few times to practice, then just went out jabbed the shit out of yoshida lol.
He still had a better jab than Bo does now.
People are full of shit. If he looked that soft and hydrated on the scales at 185 he can diet his ass to 187 and actually cut weight correctly to the weight he should be.
Funny, I used to have no respect for Rulon Gardner, thought that his victory over Karelin in the Olympics was a fluke and that he was a wuss in nature.
That all changed after he fought MMA, guy was a brickhouse. Yoshida was a tough Judo guy himself but Rulon just moved forward like tank with bazooka-like jabs. He just plowed his way through Yoshida like he was nothing.
Rulon is a nice guy after all and quit MMA because he didn’t like inflicting damage onto his opponents. Much respect to him.
He looked like that tommy kid from UF who rumble made look like a child.
That is crazy. I always thought he practiced everyday for a year or something. Insane husky fat talent
I’m sure he felt bad bludgeoning Yoshida and cashing that million dollar check
This
Guy was celebrated as if he had done something before he had ever done something in the sport
He was talking mad shit from the get go and for that reason I was just waiting for this to happen.
Khamzat make a rape like goat
I didn’t know that!
I’ll definitely tune into next week’s episode
Spoilers in fucking thread titles.
WHAT
THE
FUCK
Didn’t age well at all
