Is there any better fighter at it?
I don't mean out of the ring, and I don't mean his words
I mean the ability to make it look like he's doing more than he his, while simultaneously making it look like his opponent is being less effective than they actually are
It's mesmerizing to watch sometimes, he's a rare fighter who I can watch a fight of his live and think it was a domination and then watch it again and realize it was much closer than I thought. You can tell his opponents also fall prey to his BS and get frustrated as well, he convinces guys that their shots dont hurt, that they're farther away than they really are, that he's going to hit them when he's not
Anderson Silva used to be a master at it, but his was a more passive pressure - not the hyperactivity and confusion of Dom. With Silva some guys showed that you could just ignore it, and if you ate his shots you could survive - with Dom nobody has clearly figured out how to combat it
Hail to Dom. The King of BS.
Still hope he gets knocked out next fight tho
