Tony got dropped by Abel and taken down at will throughout the 1st round before getting the finish.
The fight played out similarly to Tony/Kevin Lee.
Really interesting.
Don't know what to make of these performances and how he stacks up against Khabib.
imo he's the grittiest, mentally strongest, most fluid opponent Khabib has or might ever face but he appears to have a tendency to get dropped easily (good chin but poor defense) and has poor TDD.
At the same time has an amazing guard. Arguably the best application of 9th planet jiu-jitsu in MMA history.
It's apparent that Khabib won't have trouble taking him down but will the rubber guard be a problem for Khabib?
