Does JDS use knees???

[leatherneck]

Maybe there is a thread, if so, kill me.

i assumed Cain would win this fight, i assumed JDS would win the prior.

Several times i have posted that i believe they are about tied for the interchangeable ! spot in division, with a slight edge to JDS.

However, by the 2nd, 3rd round (more the fight went on) i saw PLENTY of opportunities for clinch knees, possibly could have been a fight changer.

In fact I was surprised, i think they both missed this opportunity a lot.

Did anyone else find themselves shouting this at the screen?

he uses them to bend over and stuff

 

[Prex32]

do you mean zombie jds?
lol he was done in the first.

 

[VanNucker]

He was gassed, plus throwing the knee could lead to an easier takedown.

Watch his fight with Cro Cop.

 

[Silverstar17]

He used knees against Crocop and Nelson.

Yeah I felt the same way. He had the thai plum a few times but he seemed to be out of energy to much. I don

haha, nice.

and good observation, TS. I didn't immediately pick up on it myself.

 

[SamboPunch]

Yes he does

 

[Groundmaster]

Yes he does sometimes even very effectively - throwing knees against a top wrestler is however not such a good idea ( watch Mir Lesnar 2 for a blatant example ).

Too worried about another take down, too tired after the grappling and ground control of Cain.

If anything I gain more respect for JDS after ufc 155. He shown alot of heart to continue to scramble in the later rounds after being taken down. Hell of a chin as well. He took some good shots.

That knee on Roy is a reason to have super slo mo in the UFC - watch the body fat ripple wave.

 

[TheViking]

a wrestler like cain probably has a very strong core. You don't just pull his head down when your gassed

 

[cOugAr_LIbRe_85]

i believe at home he walks around on his hands, saving his knees for the cage.

and i say this based on absolutely nothing

 

[The Soothsayer]

He could barely walk by the second round.

Much less throw effective knees against a guy taking him down left and right.

 

[a guy]

At one point JDS grabbed a muay thai clinch and Cain punched him in the body til Junior let go, so that might have something to do with it

 

[JsinLegacy]

I saw several chances for him to throw them in the clinch but I think the fear of the take down played a huge role in him not doing so..

 

[countswagula]

He used them a lot against Cro Cop.

 

[Emporio Alnino]

that knee on nelson... ugh.
