Hendrix loss was worse than Aldo loss.

[Anthony Johnson]

Aldo got caught in a few seconds. Hendrix looked like a sitting duck he was scared and got a brutal beatdown while nodding before being kicked in the throat.

 

[Wallop]

Not too sure about this.
I'm not shocked that Big Rigg lost. He's a pretty much one-dimensional fighter. Wonderboy is jack in the box, Hit you from all angles. Hendricks needs to work hard to catch up with an ever developing division / game.

 

[Ascent]

Both bad.
Aldo FAR worse.

Get out of here. A one dimensional fighter would not have given GSP the fight of his life.

 

[Henghist]

Aldo was worse because he was calling himself king and his opponent a joker... Then got put away pretty clean and pretty quick.

 

[Zarra]

I agree. I don't really like Hendricks anyway,but was still shocked how horrible he looked. It was embarrassing.

 

[mooseman17]

Hendricks got fuuuuuucked up, it reminded me of watching Holm vs Rousey where one person thought they are a striker while the other is an actual striker. Super impressed with Wonderboy, has it been confirmed that hes getting the next shittle tot yet? Him and Lawler would be a sick fight.

And I agree, getting thoroughly dominated before getting finished is much more telling than a quick KO.

 

[Lowercase p]

I agree that Hendricks looked way worse. Aldo's loss was one punch out of nowhere. Hendricks looked really sloppy and timid and got beat down.

 

[Rittsy]

10 years undefeated and a Championship belt lost to a guy who spent an entire year trash-talking and disrespecting you, in a fight that can fit into a gif. to be replayed on every MMA forum for all eternity, coupled with a youtube video of you crying for 20 minutes in the locker room...

I'd rather be Hendricks.

 

[RoninJin]

How so?

Hendricks have a chance to wrestle and land a few hooks. Aldo didn't land anything, went to sleep, and lost his title to someone who been talking smack to him for over 2-3 years now.

 

[KillingJoke]

Hmm one got ktfo in 13 seconds. Stiff as a board. Nah I rather be the other guy. At least Hendricks got some shots in.

 

[Amygdala]

Hendricks loss was less embarrassing -- if you care about that sort of thing -- on the other hand, it was certainly more complete and utter. That's a fight where I don't see any need for a rematch for a quite a while. (Unlike Aldo - Mac -- where Mac won convincingly but flukily. If they fought 10000 times, I don't see Aldo losing like that again. Does anyone? If Hendricks fought Thompson again, I could DEFINITELY see him losing like that again many times.)

 

[MirRocksFedor]

Nothing is worse than Aldo loss.

If Conor wins at 155 He probably won't come back. So Aldo will never get to avenge himself.

 

[MVP89]

That was like a more understated version of Silva-Griffin. That was humiliating because it showed how truly flat-footed and basic Hendricks is.

Damn Thompson could be on his way to being the American Silva, with potentially better TDD. I think Lawler-Thompson would be better. Lawler's more static, has better head movement, and is better on the inside and getting there.

Hard to bet against Thompson now though

 

[Soul Rebel 2]

Well, I wouldnt say that it was a worse loss but seeing as the Aldo outcome was very low percentage we dont really know how a prolonged fight between Aldo and Connor would go where as Hendricks and Cerrone got outclassed until they fell down.

 

[Deleted member 196663]

This thread is worse than both of those losses.

 

[phys_therapy]

It looked like Hendricks focused more on S&C and less on actually fighting.

 

[ultramanhyata]

Hendrix looked like a sitting duck he was scared and got a brutal beatdown while nodding before being kicked in the throat.

Wait... Are you suggesting signaling? That the fight was a work??!!

 

[jeremyadavies]

Hendricks is a quitter, he stopped fighting, gave up.

Hendrix hey...
