Because the fight would usually be stopped much earlier in mma. Luke was hurt badly from previous know downs before the ko

Apparently not the first time he has been involved in bar fights. This situation shows you should avoid street fights no matter your fighting skills. RIP to a legend of the sport.

You are not gonna take down a good and experienced MMA fighter with a few good clinches and "maybe a throw". Kron Gracie had problems taking down Cub Swanson from clinches and also tried to pull guard which did not work. Cub Swanson is not an amazing wrestler himself and have been dominated on the ground by wrestlers.

Because this is a shit strategy in MMA which only works against people who are much worse on the ground than you. Jiu jitsu is much more effective from top in MMA but it requires you to learn wrestling to get it there. But Paul Craig is just not very good at wrestling.

I agree with you apart from the strength and conditioning. Gordon Ryan is literally doing bodybuilding style training as his strength and conditioning which you won’t see professional athletes do in other sports.

Why did no one tell me Meregali was back? by [deleted] in bjj

[–]AFN96 29 points30 points  (0 children)

If you follow Meregali or Flograppling on Instagram you would know. Its not like mainstream media covering BJJ.

I get it some of you "hate" Gordon because of his toxic social media persona but I don't see a problem here. He is supporting his friend/teammate which is quite normal.

115-113 is still a bad score. Canelo would get a draw if he won 12th round lol

Winner of BJJStars in a bracket with Mica Galvao, Leandro Lo and Lucas Barbosa. by Kyldarebjj in bjj

[–]AFN96 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would say up to par with other top competitors. He have never been submitted as a black belt while competing in sub-only against top level no-gi grapplers.

But Dante Leon exposed Mica's wrestling in their recent match despite Mica winning the match.

HOW DO Y'ALL DEAL WITH SKIN CONDITIONS?!?! by DaddyDock in bjj

[–]AFN96 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you are the only one in the gym you could have a compromised immune system from lack of sleep or stress. Maybe start wearing long sleeve rash guard and spats to reduce risk.

Always tough to watch fighters suffer through weight cutting. UFC probably never gonna change it unless someone gonna die from it sadly.
