Media (gif) JDS throwing an overhand from 10 miles out against Ngannou

JDS that boxed the heck out of Carwin and Mir would have won against Francis and Reem imo.. but of course current reality is a different thing and not those peak forms with no wear and tear and strong mental.
 
He should just jab his way to victory. If he does against Curtis Blyades its good night for him.
 
at least overeem went out - i think jds just decided to stop fighting so the ref could stop the fight

it didn’t appear to me that he was that hurt and could of easily gotten out of that position
I dont know why people say dumb stuff like this.

How can you possibly have any frame of reference on how hard or accurately received a punch was from your couch? Punches from fucking Francis Ngannou.

There are so many factors in a fight, getting hit, pain, your body registering the pain, adrenaline, etc, that it is just flat out stupid to immediately assume someone like JDS just gave up.

he bitched out bro
 
Ngannou’s punches are actually pretty ugly himself but the man punches extraordinarily hard like George Foreman hard and doesn’t necessarily need the cleanest technique. He’s got weird length and angles.
 
People keep on raving about N'gannou's powah, but it was actually dexterity and accuracy that's impressive in this exchange.

Very awkward angle and distance, yet managed to clip JDS right to the ear, if barely with his knuckles.

his trainer said he punches harder than baby miller.

there are 180 lbs boxer who hit harder than baby miller.

foreman is on different planet and hes 30-40lbs smaller
 
Ugly wife JDS was a monster. He really channeled that marriage frustration into octagon violence

He should have used the viagra excuse when USADA flagged him.
That's a man who really needed his Viagra.
 
JDS with hair would absolutely punk bald post-Cain JDS
 
He sometimes throws loopy long range shots. He's had success with them in the past. Both his finishes against Cain and Werdum were big wind up shots thrown from the outside. But yeah he really seemed to over extend with that one in particular.
 
They get scared and do weird shit. Same thing happened with Overeem
How did overeem do stupid shit. Did u watch the sequence? Reem feinted, dodged and threw a left, it barely missed and he got countered. If that punch landed it couldve also knocked out ngannou.

my assessment is based on the fact that he just popped right back onto his feet like
nothing had happened and walked to his corner and had his wits about him

he could of rolled to his back/guard from the position he was in

that plus the previously mentioned fact that he looked like he was scarred shitless to be there by throwing that ridiculous overhand with no set up then turning his back and running away makes me think he wanted out of the fight

someone like frankie edgar or stipe for example
would of 100 percent fought out of that situation with the amount of wits jds had about him right when he got up 1 second after the stoppage
 
you have a 2009 account

you should know heart and the mental game
as two major factors in the fight game

You should know that you can't feel what he was feeling. So maybe it wasn't as "easy" to get out of that position as you think it was.

but it didn't land, same as JDS's

Edit: also, you should learn to read, pal, I said "weird", not "stupid". You quoted a single line of text and you got it wrong
 
he was scared and went for a hail mary - you could tell he knew he was screwed as soon as it didn’t land

just turned his back and started running away

fight was over before it even began
if he had been running away he might have been okay, it was worse than that he was trying to not fall down after that horrible attempt at a punch.
 
Dude, read the first page before posting at least.

Not to be a dick but I keep getting notifications about this when it's already been addressed and I admitted my mistake regarding the cause of the knockdown. As I said, I only watched it live at a party and remembered Francis going down so I guess my mind just filled in the blanks since I can't recall JDS ever dropping someone with a leg kick but I do recall him dropping several with an overhand right.

Sorry if that comes of bitch, I really mean no disrespect but since you took the time to address me it would be rude not to respond, lol, but obviously you aren't the first and I'm drunk and tired hence the uncharacteristic annoyance.

Haha, I feel I put way to much effort into explaining myself there for some reason.

Cheers dude, sorry.

Haha ok. When I posted there was no other responses showing, maybe I didn't post it for a while and it showed up so late

look at the way he pops right back up and form your own opinion

he looked 100 percent fine to me - got up and hugged ngannou and just walked away

obviously neither of us can provide “proof” of how he was feeling but just like 99 percent of other matters on this form we’re discussing opinions
