Creativity of Patricio Pitbull

[jeff7b9]

You ever wonder.. like where do these guys come up with these super original nicknames?

Pitbull. And he is short and stocky and kind of ferocious.


Perfect nickname. It's brilliant really. It fits.
just makes sense.


And he has it tattooed across his shoulders....

It's like a jersey. Get it?




His brother fights right? .... what's his nickname?
I bet it is something awesome.

Pitbull may start fighting in Round 3. He has done very little in first 2 rounds.

 

[mkt]

Not much creativity in his fighting style

 

[flowoftruth]

very difficult stylistic matchup for his first bout in ufc

 

[Rorschachxx]

Pitbull?

I don't know if there is a single nickname that has been used more in combat sports.

Either way Thiago Alves is my immediate thought.

 

[tat2man5k]

Yeah either way...what's with him being so tentative? Reminds me of Emmett's last fight.

Yeah. He looked TINY in there. And old. A little gunshy

That was a TOUGH ask for his debut

I thought his nickname was Pitbull because he looks like Mini Arlovski.

 

[Lawrence]

Disappointing debut.

Really lacked aggression

UFC jitters. Is normal.

He is old, 38 I think? Before this he dropped to 135 and lost to petting, then got ko'd I'm rizin I think at 155. Plus a horrible stylistic matchup against yair. The ufc really wanted to kick Bellator down now that it's gone. To bad this wasn't 5-10 years ago. Pitbull in the ufc then would have been insane.

 

[jeff7b9]

Pitbull vs Josh Emmett should be next.

They are relatively in the same age class.

Neither can pull the trigger well against younger faster fighters but against eachother it would be a fair fight and they could let their hands go.

100% ufc wanted him to lose to protect the UFC>Bellator perception/narrative.


Joe Rogan even saying "there's levels"

It's too bad Pitbull didn't come over literally 5-10 years back.
I think he would have done well and beat a lot of guys.

 

[Prince Nephilim]

UFC jitters. Is normal.

And having to fight Yair his first fight in

 

[MrCoffee]

He's more of a Jack Russell Terrier now.

Maybe we need to see Chandler-Pitbull #2 (or #3, i can't remember). They're not competitive with the much bigger, taller newer breed fighters.
