Ben Askren: "I think he lost me as a fan" (talking about Adesanya)

[Verace]

"I know im on record saying im a fan of adesanya specially with the mic. But in the last two fights he turned me off. I dont want to be a fan of him anymore. The Romero fight... when he said(after it) that he fucked up his leg... I thought that was just totally absurd and ridiculous. It was a boring ass fight. And then this one i found myself cheering for Costa by the end of it. I think he lost me as a fan."

He dominated Costa. Odd time to be jumping off the hype train.

 

[AndrewGolota48]

Adesanya has night terrors about the hypothetical of prime Asken moving up to 185 to face him.

 

[KAZSoliloquy]

20-0 with 15 knockouts and ben askren thinks he’s boring.

 

[blaccbeard]

Found himself cheering for Costa who literally didnt connect 1 punch the whole fight and taunted more than he actually threw?

Welp Askren's opinion is officially worthless from now on.

 

[TheSecretOne]

Adesenya must be devastated.

"Hey, dana. Is that the best you got"

A lot of people don’t jump on hype trains and just see things objectively. I’m sure Ben is one of those guys

 

[Fight Professor]

I agree that all Askren fights in the UFC were exciting.

He was already on the hype train and chose to get off after a dominating performance. Odd decision.

I think it has to do more with his antics and the way he carries himself than with skills broskis

 

[MartinGibson86]

Askren 50-45

 

[ookii]

Asskren just mad that the end fight taunt triggered his own flashbacks of the Mas fight

 

[ChuckGrassley]

Adesanya is annoying and cringe, how could anyone like him?

 

[Pillar of Society]

Askren is so boring even he falls asleep 3 seconds into his fights

 

[chinarice]

Don't worry Ben, he doesn't care.

 

[blaccbeard]

I think it has to do more with his antics and the way he carries himself than with skills broskis

But he was fine with Costa's antics tho right? all that taunting, sticking his toungue out, chatting shit but not actually fighting is ok from Costa?

Ben sounds like a hypocrite to me.
