This video is appearantly from a couple weeks ago so it might have already been posted here before, but here goes:



I thought he said it was time to reach another level or something? Wasn’t he going to go and improve after he realized the current strategy isn’t working to get him titles?

I respect the samurai warrior gimmick and he needs to do whatever he thinks is right, but he doesn’t need to do all this goofy shit. As some dude in the comments said bro needs Dagestan, not Japan.

Praying we will see evolved and more defensively sound Jiri(you know, the thing he got punished for against Alex, TWICE) but looks like he’s never gonna change lol

Not really complaining about his fights since dude is an absolute warrior but I wanna see him on a title run again. He ain’t gonna improve doing all this nonsensical kung fu aikido shit though

Stupidity = forever

Fabia is going to try start a commune heavens gate/waco type shit when he is capable of it.

"flying on the tail of a comet all greased up ready to fight"

Fabia stays away because he also sees Jiri is crazy enough to believe it a lil too much and will probably end up killing Fabia in one of their training sessions.

Remember Fabia chasing Diego and that Viking Brawler guy around with a knife in the cage? Try that with Jiri and he'll go into ancient warrior mode and stab Fabia to death

Ah, a little bit of Hyperbole I see? getting KTFO by every hard hitter he's fought hm? When in reality he's only been KO'd by Alex recently. Reyes, Ozdemir, Glover are all hard hitters.

Your mind seems to be narrow, Grasshopper. Perhaps being a good nail and enduring the enemies attacks to weaken their heart is a part of his strategy. It's a different type of defense; A flamboyant confidence in ones self belief, masked as arrogance to the opponent. Forces them to engage, for engaging when your opponent is defensively vulnerable, is what these fighters have been instinctively trained to do. Jiri anticipates this and masters navigating these circumstances he creates for him self via his "choice of defense". As long as Jiri can expect what they will do as he leaves himself open, he can capitalize on the attack.


He's a different type of fighter. It REALLY bugs me that everyone wants him to become some ATT wrestleboxer.

This. Variety is the spice of life. I for one am glad that not every single fighter on the roster looks the same with the same stance, same defense, same tactics, same medium balance of strength and cardio, etc.

Jiri will be the first guy to successfully pull off the tatsumaki senpukyaku.

 

[stronghulk]

He does regular MMA training aswell. I just think when others relax, watch movies or hang out Jiri does this instead.

 

[Deleted member 110072]

Honestly I think Jiri might be smarter to take his career slow and hope Alex retires/loses/moves to HW, he probably needs a comeback fight and then to win a #1 contender fight to get another title shot against someone other than Jiri.

I suspect with Jiri it won't be age which is the issue with his career but mileage so he probably doesnt need to rush.

 

[Noveltymortar]

Someone needs to send him a YouTube video of these fake kung fu masters getting knocked out whenever they have a real fight. He is literally destroying his career by believing in fairy tales.

 

[HHJ]

It's not a gimmick TS, give Jiri some fucking respect - do you really think he's been "pretending" to live like a nut job samurai monk for a decade plus because of marketability?

I mean its all actually in his fighting style in actual fights....


but just the IDEA of this offends people

This. Variety is the spice of life.

100% in styles and personalities.

Khabib and Conor being two polar opposites is a big part of why that was the biggest MMA event ever
