Ben Askren has higher finish rate than Johny Hendricks

[mkess101]

Lol, so tell me which part did OP manipulate.

Just accept that askrens rate > johnys, its clearly proven.

Weak.

LOL, might not be manipulated, but it's utterly meaningless.

Weak is acting like there's actually anything to be taken from OP's "point".

Way back when I won my first sub grappling tourney I won more matches by sub than the black belt from our gym that won his division. My % of winning by sub was better in that tourney than his. What does that mean in terms of comparing the two of us? Absolutely f*cking nothing. He was light years better than I was.

Did I say it was meaningful? Did someone say Askren was better than johny? Did op compare their skills or finishing rate? Youre so defensive it makes you blind and aggressive and stupid.

Askrens finishing rate > johnys.

Accept it or can you? Or are you gonna invent some new example or try to red herring this shit again?

 

[nosoultosell**]

Wrong forum! Askren is fighting cans Johnny is fighting legit comp!

This.

I don't even like whiny Hendricks but he has beat Fitch, Kampman, Condit, Robbie and close to beating GSP while Ben

 

[JKG]

As pointed out, Hendricks' competition has been a little stronger...

 

[omawho402]

ok 56% and 57% are virtually the same number

 

[Clashman]

 

[Loisaida]

Not a Hendricks fan.

But Askren would not finish/would not beat:
Lawler
GSP
Condit
Kampman
Kos
Fitch

Whereas Hendricks would murder Askren's entire resume.

GSP
Condit
Kampman
Kos
Fitch

Not sure about the other people on that list, but Askren would hold Condit down and slap the piss out of him for 5 rounds.

That's almost worse than getting finished.

As pointed out, Hendricks' competition has been a little stronger...

Which is why he Lost to GSP, split with KOS, Arguably lost to Lawler and Condit(moreso Lawler) and lost to Rick Story of all people.

He has a few nice kO's and hes a great fighter but lets not let that blind us.

Johnny had his time. Its bens time now.

Lawler
GSP hi
Condit
Kampman
Kos
Fitch

Disagree.

Beats all of them minus GSP

 

[The Komodo]

How can Askren prove himself against the top fighters in the world if the UFC won't sign him?

If the UFC won't sign him, he'll continue to wreck everyone else.

No moron, nobody's actually arguing the #'s. What everyone with a brain itt is pointing out is that OP tossed out some completely meaningless #'s and followed it up with "Are you still drinking the kool aid?"

Are you dumb enough that you don't see what OP was trying to infer with that phrase?

 

[Pakman]

Askren isnt fighting guys in the top 10, 20, or 30. Hendricks would finish every single fighter that askren fought cant say the same thing for askren going against Hendricks competition

Hendricks has finished Fitch n Kampmann. Gsp, Kos, Lawler, Condit were all decisions (and he didnt even beat GSP on the books)

I love Ben Askren, and I think he's for real, but c'mon none of the fighters of his resume is a better fighter than any of the ones you named, save for Story, maybe, but 2010 Story was as tough as they come.

Also funny you say 'lost to GSP' and then 'arguably lost to Lawler'.

The question is: would Askren finish GSP, Lawler, Condit? That was my point.

 

[benjaminbuttons]

What would their finishing rates look like vif they switched opponents though?

I didn't say they were, did I?

We don't know then why speculate. Hendricks lost to story who lost to CB who lost to Hendricks. It's mma math and nobody is psychic.

 

[The Outlaw707]

Im not a fan of either Johnny or Ben but I would pay good money to see Johnny smash Bens face in

 

[RageRoider]

Hendricks can only finish fights in first round ,he's grinding it out after 1st round and it's proven pure science...
