Do you laugh at Chael Sonnen for sayin Usman is the greatest MMA athlete of all time?

[Intermission]

I'd throw Condit in that conversation. Usman's cardio always relied a ton on him dictating the pace and it was rarely grueling. Condit on the other hand was lethal (in his prime) and could throw for the full fight.

I was first ready to declare you insane... thought you wrote conor.

could usman do this?

thats some funky ass shoes or the boy can really jump!!

 

[Intermission]

We all laugh at Chael. Always.

He was right about this though

 

[HatKick]

Depends what you mean. Usman has a rare combo of wrestling strength, punching power and elite cardio. In that sense he has a case.

Is he the type of athlete that could make for a good track and field athlete or gymnast? Absolutely not. I've never seen him perform any impressive athletic moves like I've seen BJ Penn, Yoel Romero, Khamzat or even Sage Northcutt.

He might even have said "fighter"

Gonna try and find it..

 

[Araquém]

Hes a great athlete. But I wouldnt put him on the same tier as Yoel, Brock, Randelman, Cro Cop, GSP etc.

Brock Lesnar was a bum in MMA lol!

Are you a bum if you beat Frank Mir?

I have zero emotional reaction to anything Chael says. Whether it be laughter, anger, whatever.

Cant blame you. He says Sambo doesnt exist.

 

[Ozze]

Any quote from Chael should send a thread directly to wasteland. He's embarassing and just say shit to be controversial. No one should listen to him.

 

[WoozyFailGuy]

Chael is a character and doesn't believe 99% of what he says. Greatest clickbaiter in MMA.

Randleman had hops

 

[Fight Professor]

I do not listen to him.

If you have a record of 5-3 you are a bum in MMA

among other things

To be fair Sambo is basically mma with different rules

 

[Bowel-forged Stool]

he has also praised GSP's athleticism which is fairly on point...

For a Canadian

 

[Lord Pyjamas]

Chael will deepthroat anything as long as it gives him a coin.
But even managed to be a drugged up boozo ending up in court between those episodes.
And before he even entered the stage for us. I predict a great future for that man!
(less so for my writing skills, where is the second episode for this to make any sense at all?).

 

[TeenageMutantLesnarTurtle]

Brock Lesnar was a bum in MMA lol!

I thought we were talking predominantly about raw athleticism. Brock was a freak athlete.

If you have a record of 5-3 you are a bum in MMA

Who were the losses against?

 

[AL-Tappo McSnappo]

He said that after Usman got sparked by Edwards roundhouse kick.

Prior to that, Chael says he saw an MMA athlete exhibit elit level skills in every aspect of mixed martial arts.

This is a bad case of recency effect, surely?

The recency effect is a cognitive bias in which those items, ideas, or arguments that came last are remembered more clearly than those that came first.

He has over a million subs and his videos get about 40k views

 

[fedorthegoat777]

I laugh at him before he even says anything.
