American Khabib with the papakha built in.

TS you forgot he's also a 2 time Dan Hodge trophy winner (1 of 2), NCAA pin record for a season, and I think like 3rd most pins in NCAA history.

BJJ Black Belt, Olympian (worst than Cormier, by the way)... "from a folk/freestyle perspective"... Fila no gi champ...
MAN, HE IS A REAL FIGHTER HUH?! VERY GOOD. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Black Belt I laughed hard.

Askren is "nuttin", totally nobody. Let's wait when he gets the real top contenders, complete fighters, and lose badly. Did nothing until now, only teared chickens in subevents and nothing more.

I’m not a huge fan of Askren but to mock and laugh at his accomplishments is easy to do over a keyboard.
He’s boring to me and not my cup of tea when it comes to fighting but that doesn’t mean I don’t understand how great his wrestling is and his ability to win fights. Let’s wait and see how he does first before opening your mouth and him proving you wrong.

[true_fan]

After he gets smoked, he will become a can

 

[Nightwish]

His wrestling is gorgeous to the eyes. War Askren!

 

[ChrisPalmquest]

He moves very sloppy and uncoordinated but effective. He'll get starched against someone with good tdd and competent striking though.

He is like the exact opposite fighter of Conor.

Horrendous striking and movement but great wrestling and grappling.

 

[JM Barrie]

Tanks man, tanks.

 

[cabear]

funky ain't unbeaten for nothing. his scrambles, grinds and tech are unmatched, yeah he's "boring" but he's also a spectacular wrestler. i enjoy his fights and can't wait to see what he does.

Thats what I think as well.

No doubt a great wrestler with some unique scrambles and technique. Also very tenacious in completing the takedown.

His movement and timing coming in for a shot will get him cracked against a good striker with TDD. Some of those takedowns were him blindly reaching forward with his head turned or lifted back. Sloppy, but his wrestling skill allow him to finish.

Wont work against the top guys in the WW division.

 

[Mentallooser]

His understanding of weight distribution, leverage, and momentum are absolutely amazing.

Maybe because is an american sport... No news here. Put knees on four and soccer kicks and we see if wrestlers will do good.

[Superzorro]

I don't like the way he shoots in. It looks like he leaves himself susceptible to being countered very badly.
