It's one of those weird things whereHe marginally out pointed Usman while causing little effective damage.
The rounds Marty won were devastating - knockdowns and obviously damaging attacks.
Its one of those weird things where it looks reasonably competitive if you just looked at stats, but when you watch it one guy gets beat up pretty badly.
Chael wouldve died before Anderson did, and I suspect the same could be said for Covington against Usman. Colby got saved by the bell at the end of round 2 in the 2nd fight, and the referee intervened when Usmans fist broke his jaw in their initial match-upI think this is a very different story.
Chael literally beat the dogshit out of Anderson for 4.5 of 5 rounds in their first fight. He dominated him everywhere that fight went, then lost via triangle in the closing minutes of the final round. Granted Sonnen is a cheater, but then we found out Anderson was also a PEDS cheat.
Colby never won a single round against USman in the dominant fashion Chael was beating Anderson, let alone round after round.
I see more of an argument for Colby having an edge in their first fight tbhI remember giving Colby 3 rounds in the first fight although one of them was very generous. Similarly in the second fight I gave him 2 solid rounds and one close one, but couldn't really argue with him losing.
And if they had properly explained the rules to Chael then he wouldnt have even tapped in the first place!
I love it. His delivery is so sincere that it looks like Dom actually fully buys it like “is he for real?” <Lmaoo><Lmaoo><Lmaoo>I hadn't seen him say it with Dom and Urijah there. That's great, their reactions are hilarious.
The fucking copium is unreal lol
Only stats that matter:
Jaw broke and TKO'd in the first fight
Beat up and knocked down 4000 times in the second fight
2 CLEAR losses
Summed that up very nicely, in other words ↓↓↓
I agree with everything you said except the part about him being the second best WW. He very well may be but I just think the jury is still out on that until he fights a relevant contender or two, which is something he hasn’t done in about four years.


Chael won 4 rounds against Anderson too.

I had it close to this.
1st fight, i gave Colby the 2nd and Usman the 4th.
2nd fight, i'm the exact same.
So I have Colby winning 5 rounds.
Colby has two losses to Usman and got finished in one. How about he remembers that instead?
