Ben Askren says had he beat Masvidal he would’ve become a top 3 UFC star (in popularity)

He says it in the first few minutes or so

Lmaoooo they seriously played the “what if” game. I don’t even know where to start with this guy....

If Askren and Usman fought 100 times, Ben would've been lucky to win a single round.

 

[I WILL CUT YOU]

Ben is the type of guy to think mayonnaise and dry toast are spicy.

A few dorks liked him. Whoop de fucking Doo.

 

[CBohl]

To bad you ate Masvidal’s knee then.


This guy needs to stfu.

 

[loisestrad]

Beating Masvidal would have done nothing for him, as Masvidal's only claim to fame was beating Askren (in that particular way).

Masvidal was a gimme - and Askren failed to take it.

 

[TRUS8888]

I've seen sentiment like this from Askren before

Is this what hes going to tell himself for the rest of his life? I would have.. I almost.. *if only*

Rather than let the experience humble him he chooses to maintain the ego he had before and live in hypothetical land.

 

[GiTGuD]

No he wouldn't.....Masvidal vs Askren had hype behind it because of the shit talking but Masvidal wasn't that big yet.....he got big because of the flying knee which hadn't happened yet.



If Askren would've beaten Masvidal...It would've been a boring decision, his shit-talking would've continued tho but I don't think it would've made him a top 3 star.

Maybe, maybe not

 

[It Just Is]

Askren fights so old.lol Like Masvidal looked like he was 20 years younger. Even in his debut with Lawler Askren barely got out alive...

 

[Oeshon]

I could see it. Askren was getting alot of hype

 

[Credo]

 

[beroisimo**]

Usman would have MURDEREDDDDDDDDDDDD Ben. People need to realise that although he was an excellent folkstyle wrestler, Ben was never a good freestyle wrestler (the more legit and impactful wrestling in a fight situation). So against any top mma wrestler with decent striking, Ben would have been destroyed.

[VVarhead]

lol Ben dryhumping Masvidal for 5 rounds would've done nothing. Masvidal only became that famous because of that KO.

 

[Santonja]

STFU Ben

 

[Chappi]

And if his fight against Lawler had a better ref, he would have lost that fight after he got ko-ed, instead of winning by ref gift.
If, if, if.........

It's what asscream fans have to do so they don't cry themselves to sleep.
