Gabriel Gonzaga - never had great striking and especially in the era he fought cro cop UFC striking was terrible. Cro Cop was k-1 level and pride too had much better strikers technically like cro cop and hunt, yet
then we have Randleman, a powerhouse amateur wrestler who is even lower than gonzaga on the striking scale. cro cop vs randleman in striking is like einstein vs bill nye in science. Cro cop is so far ahead of him on the feet but
Even crazier he fought Brenden Shaub! A Brenden Shaub who became famous for being knocked out by Nelson and getting outboxed and knocked out by an old Noguera. Brenden though decent at every aspect of mma was never GOOD at any of them especially striking. But somehow
meanwhile he beats kickboxer pat barry by submission, fights k-1 champ mark hunt to a split decision loss which many think he won, and knocks out notorious mma striker Wand. Silva. Not to mention winning the k-1 tournament at an older age.
what gives?
