Russians...Russians, everywhere....russians.
Obs:Curious to know why then they gave the decision to Big Nog when he fought Volk Han...

Oh please, a guy with 48% TD accuracy was a far superior wrestler to Chael?? Have fun in your Pride bubble
It´s coz you didnt watch the fight, Im afraid...
Babalu was a HW in that fight, close to 230 Lbs IIRC.
On a sidenote 1: makes no sense to compare here a Brazilian Olympic team Wrestler to a Div. 1 American wrestler, since we´re talkin´about Fedor & his skillset.
Would be more relevant to compare a samboist to a Brazilian Olympic team Wrestler imo...
On a sidenote 2: Fedor won by decision, but was actually pretty close, more bodyshots & TDs probably influenced them judges, coz Babalu´s sub attempts were more legit than Fedor´s...
On a sidenote 3:"Chael would wrestle fuck Babalu in his sleep "
> What...are....you...talkin´....about...

Babalu would feast on a one-dimensional wrestler like Sonnen, with laughable sub defence... back in the days, Babalu had so many tools on the ground, so many legit threats in his submission arsenal...would be a sparring contest.
I suggest you go watch Babalu´s earlier fights...
Me dummy, that's why I said somethingWho cares?
when arona was fightng monsters in PRIDE, chael was fighting cans in wec, dude couldnt even finish Paolu "I see ghosts" Filho... Arona was 2 time adcc champ never got scored once, he beat mark keer... you think uncle chael had a chance in the world vs Keer? lmfao...
Understand that Babalu would easily sub Sonnen. It is what it is. Different levels.Babalu would grapple fuck Chael, but Chael would *out wrestle him*, neither had adopted a good striking skill set to write home about.
Never the less it is not a good fight to use to make a case for Fedor vs Chael, since Chael and Renato both had very different skill sets.
Babalu was not as well rounded as you claim, he was strong on the ground but his stand up and wrestling was sub par.
Understand that Babalu would easily sub Sonnen. It is what it is. Different levels.
But you´re right, different skillsets...One was one-dimensional, while the other one was indeed well-rounded.
Are you aware that he was a national MT champ too?
Well, you´re sayin´he was one-dimensional and Im disputin´this...lmao... Are we going to pretend that Sobral was a high level striker in mma now?
Besides i dont know how this even got here, the post your responding was me claiming that Chael is a far better wrestler than Arona, and that Fedor's Arona fight(although that fight was close) doesnt mean Fedor wont struggle with Chael's wrestling.
??? When did this become a Chael vs Arona debate??
We were comparing the offensive wrestling of Arona to Chael. Wtf does Arona's ADCC accolades have to do with anything???
Pride fan boys are a special bunch.
80% stuffed yet spent 90% of the fight on top.. geek my ass, under ibjjf rules fedor might have even gotten a better case, since it’s Mma top position counts for something, sissy ass ankle locks do not.
Well, you´re sayin´he was one-dimensional and Im disputin´this...lmao
I was respondin´to ya claimin´that Fedor fought only one-dimensional wrestlers...
BTW, Sonnen had nuthin´for Arona.
what exacty do you think adcc is???
Ah this discussion is all over the place now... go back to your original statement.??? And Sobral was not on the same level as Chael in wrestling....
Maybe you can try and prove me wrong by tellimg me about a chess tournament he won when he was 7.
And who had the better wrestling between Rampage and Arona??
Bjj guys tend to get butthurt when a guy comes into the academy and leglocks the higher belts so they cry and call it a sissy move.
No gi grappling tournament
Ah this discussion is all over the place now... go back to your original statement.
Submission WRESTLING tournament. Basically all competitors are submission WRESTLERS... Chael might have been a better folk style wrestler, but by far arona was the best subWrestler of both
Well we can def. Use the Rampage bout as a tool
.... you do realize there's a difference between wrestling and no gi grappling right?? Just because its called submission wrestling doesnt mean there wrestlers... logic...
