Lee's chin is a problem

Yeah, what kind of pussy gets wobbled by a wheel kick to the temple...
 
Only people that have trained specifically in striking understand how to roll with punches.

It's 1 serious skill MMA is lacking in.
 
These are examples of people getting hurt. Kevin Lee was chicken dancing. Leave.
uhm
your op said about getting rocked - not anything about to the extent of doing the chicken dance.
mcgregor was effectively out on his feet vs diaz and did the same thing in panic wrestling to buy time.
khabib has only had 1 tough fighter as an opponent in rda.

leave

Fedor got rocked like every other fight.
 
Theres certain things dominant champions have in common and one of them is a good chin.

Look at how often Lee gets rocked - when has something like this ever happened to Bones/Holloway/Khabib/Mcgregor?

It is ESSENTIAL as it is the difference between an 11 title defense streak and getting knocked out on the first. Also a lot of chinnyness comes down to how you hold your hands, head, roll with punches etc. and Lee just isn't there.
So McGregor is a dominant champion now.

its not like rolling with the punches can potentially put you in prime position to getting head kicked or knee to the dome

oh wait, it does

there is a reason why pretty boy floyd won't allow kicks and knees in this potential "MMA" fight he will have

there are times fighters will roll with punches when there opponent is strictly boxing. Conor does it a bit in his fight with Nate and even against Eddie, but once kicks and knees come into the equation it is difficult to roll with them because you can literally roll into a knee

He got kicked in the head. Your shit is fully dipped.

People said the same thing about gsp and he had more championship fights / title defenses as anyone else . It’s about how u recover and react - like gsp did vs condit and bisping (not sure when he got hurt in that fight but he said he did, bad ) . Kevin Lee has all the skills of a champion imo - was extremely impressed with his guard passing and gnp - some of the best in the division right behind khabib

I think he's lying about bisping. But I think he said he hurt his neck.
 
Not everyone can do this:

But that doesn't mean they have a bad chin.

If anything, I'm impressed Barboza can land a wheel kick that clean; any strike that requires turning your back to your opponent is almost guaranteed to end hilariously. What that says to me is that Edson's kick speed enables him to do things that should be impossible lol.

You'd be amazed how many people with "good chins" were actually "really good at not getting hit clean".

I think you're mistaking rolling with dodging. he talks about moving with the strikes as they hit you and not about evading them in a preemptive manner.
