50 combined significant strikes from Khamzat and Dricus over 25 minutes..... Lowest since the Sandhagen Font disaster

You do need significant strikes if you want a finish or stronger decision than 50-45 though. Which is everybody's problem with the fight. Khamzat clearly won, but also clearly took zero chances and was perfectly happy riding things out for a safe win.

People have been trying to compare it to GSP, but GSP punched the cage he was so frustrated he hadn't yet stopped BJ (ironically right before BJ's corner threw in the towel)



People can tell what's a genuine effort and what's not.

I understand your frustration but disagree with your premise.

Dominating a fight doesn’t necessarily require significant strikes.

Fighters have plenty of other strategies they can use that don’t involve any kind of significant strike.

That’s just the reality.
 
Not true, round 3 he was throwing pretty hard elbows that got close to a finish. This is why I think it's a disingenuous argument.

I'd say you're a Khamzat hater, never appreciated him as a fighter. He's had plenty of 1st round finishes and you are overly critical for whatever reason you don't like him.

If you are a Khamzat fan, I'm curious why you're so critical. If you aren't you are likely a hater and nothing he does will probably impress you enough where you are typing stuff how awesome he is.

Mark is a moron that will defend the guys he likes and shit on the ones he doesn't devoid of anything resembling sound logic.

If I were you I wouldn't be bragging that it only takes 37 strokes to get off.

But you do you.

Wrong. The fights are quite literally primarily scored based on damage so this simply isn't true.

There's a reason why Khamzat won 50-44 instead of 50-40 like people are trying to pretend.

Like I said, you excel at not making sense.

The only reason I cared who won that fight was because of the $ I made from the very predictable result. You'll spam post after post whining like a bitch. We're all have our roles, I guess.

Where did I ever say Khamzat wouldn't win?

Like everybody else I just didn't think I'd be bored out of my mind seeing it.

Yet instead of saying anything at all about the guy who was losing badly taking chances to try to change the trajectory of the fight, you blame the guy who was pitching a shutout.

DDP needed to take some wild risks and see if he could change things. Would it have gotten him finished most likely? Sure. But the onus was on him, not the guy easily winning almost every minute.

People like you bitching and whining about the crucifix...you realize they didn't start rounds in that position, right? In fact even after TD's Khamzat had to work into that position. Prior to him doing that, DDP had the choice to not lay there and allow it. He could've rolled his hips and tried to threaten with an armbar or triangle. Would it have worked? Nope, and likely he'd have gotten finished. But there were options and he chose to lay there and survive 25 minutes instead.

But you just keep blaming the winner, Marky. Not transparent at all LMAO.

Why yes, I do blame the guy who only threw 37 significant strikes for being boring.
 
Wow, what an incredibly boring stat from an incredibly boring fight between two fuckin bums

<bullseye>

I expect no less from a window licker like you TBH.

Dricus sucking ass doesn’t make Khamzat not boring dude.

Boring overall? Or you just happened to be bored by this one fight of his?

Dricus didn't just suck. He purely tried to survive instead of taking chances. You can't even bring yourself to admit how much that contributed to the lack of excitement.

Yep just a hater. Ignoring he finished plenty of people first round and most criticism was he had no cardio. Now he proved it and they are trying to flip around this nonsense like he's Torrez Finney.

*Has had plenty of 1st round finishes.*

*Also goes 25 minutes throwing only 37 significant strikes.*

It's almost like those two might be related and why people are frustrated. We can all see the lack of effort.
Ok, when Nelson hit Kimbo like that in crucifix, most people blamed Kimbo for being a can, not Nelson for "weak strikes". Like I said you could count whichever number of strikes you want to feel better about.

Imagine having to try and defend someone getting multiple crucifixes yet getting nowhere close to a finish.

Must be a first.
 
Yeah that's pretty bizarre, I swear I saw him attempting a few throughout the fight.
Well, that's fucking bullshit because I vividly remember Khamzat trying for a rear naked choke, and DDP defending, and I was completely drunk while watching. So, stop lying.
 
He was active. It just was also stay busy useless activity.

Nobody's ever going to remember a single ground strike he threw as nothing he threw had any bad intentions. It's only intentions was to prevent a stand up.

It wasn't useless. He was transitioning from back, to side control, to mount, and maintaining control of DDP the entire time. It was far from useless. Some of you guys don't know what the hell you're watching.

Before the fight: Dude DDP is just a tank and has super high level grappling that is underrated, he's going to be impossible to put out and finish! Look at him submitting the whole BJJ team!
After the fight: Wow, Khamzat is so boring, he dominated the fight but couldn't even finish DDP! Atleast DDP went for a sub attempt!

It's tiring. Can't it be impressive that anyone beat DDP in the UFC? Let alone win every single round.

There's a reason why the score cards were only 50-44 despite Khamzat having a 500 strike advantage and 22 minutes of control.
