Conor & Nate criticize Khamzat's win: "Lame, Boring, SCARED!"

[Candy Routure]

Conor lookin’ extra puffy… I know why!!!

 

[CRuck1980]

Do you think that fighters should be criticized for not willing to stand-up fighting but instantly going for a takedown?

Why should they?

 

[Ramon Antonio]

It was insanely fast paced two minutes of grappling, with several TDs, trips and 180 spinning shit, and then submission.

Dunno how it wasn't exciting.

It was short, one-sided, zero strikes landed, and predictable (once he got a hold of the leg, I knew it was over).

 

[Chok Sok Te]

Hmmm sounds like they’re terrified of grappling maybe they should go to BKFC

I guess this may be true, though looking at this like so, no beatdown/blowout and dominant win is ever exciting.

Nate Diaz on Khamzat Chimaev's win over Kevin Holland: "Lame, Scared, Boring, Rookie, Pu$$y"

Conor McGregor agrees: "Same. Terrified of exchange"



Should fighters be critisiced for not willing to stand-up exchanges & fights?

No. As long as theyre going for subs or (t)ko im cool with it. Its the point strikers/grapplers that i dislike.

Depends on whether not exchanging still leads to or makes a serious attempt at delivering damage or creating a stoppage.

The difference between delivering "ground and pound" or hunting for a submission vs "lay and pray" or "wall and stall."

 

[tramendous]

Imagine claiming that a guy who seeks the safety of the ground within literally the first 2 seconds of a fight ISN'T terrified of exchange. Conor & Nate simply stating irrefutable facts.

To be fair everyone is afraid of exchanging after hearing nate's slurred speech and seeing his droopy cte face

 

[Snoowpy]

Agree with both Conor and Nate, diving straight for the leg is bullshit, at least stand and bang for a bit. You are paid to put on a show, especially after the card had to re-shuffled to accommodate your lack of discipline, the least you can do is put on a show rather than being as risk-averse as possible.

Sounds like you want to watch Muay Thai. Not MMA.

 

[dagfin]

But some fans & even fighters do that... Probably should look for another sport like Kickboxing, boxing, muay tai etc.

It's the other way around, Khamzat should try out for the wrestling team.

Yes especially after all the gangster talk. To shoot for your life. /thread

Sounds like your too into crotch sniffing.

 

[electricfuneral]

my god would khamzat have killed them

 

[ChangeIsComing]

Honestly the fake glove touch that initiated the TD sequence and following finish didnt take place I would be giving HAMzat some cred, but...after that fuck him...that was some coward shit.

 

[ChangeIsComing]

Lol. Grow up.

He crushed Holland and made it look easy.

He did, but faking a glove touch which results in an opening to wrap your arms around the opponent for a clean TD....thats fucking lame and a coward move. I still think Holland would have lost but the manner in how HAMzat decided to engage is really shitty of him.

 

[Deleted member 110072]

NO

In the real world no but in MMA broland yes.

Khazmat was shook and panic wrestled for sho.

 

[mahavishnunj]

If I wanted to hear two complete idiots say dumb things, I'd watch Beavis & Butthead. At least that's funny.

 

[Paolo Delutis]

Exactly. It's a fight, and Khamzat beat Holland in just over two minutes. Meanwhile Holland went to a 25 minute decision with both Brunson and Vettori, legit MWs.

McGregor and Diaz can talk shit all they want, they both know Khamzat would ragdoll them.

Would he rag doll Nate tho? I mean he had his shot to show that and he couldn't even make weight...

Nate isnt some short 71 inch reach Burns.and we saw what happened to khamzat there he couldn't control burns on the ground and got tagged on the feet several times...Nate has longer reach then khamzat... Long arms make for great Guillotines

The look on his face was definitely one of terror! lol

They're going to have to have a barbwire cage and hidden c4 explosives to entertain some of these people.
