Greg Hardy gets sent to the canvas AGAIN

[Dr Guildo]

A-level Knockout.

 

[Dr Guildo]

C-level KO on a A/B-level athlete.

 

[Deleted member 585708]

Damn second KO loss in a row outside the UFC.
Also, 18 rounds? That’s Muhammad Ali - Joe Frazier stuff

I thought that, but he's boxed quite a few times since his BKFC face plant.

He's obviously not a high level boxer, though, despite the awe some fans held towards his striking power.

 

[Number 8]

Isn't he the new breed hw and A lvl athlete? Right sherdog? Right?

This says you've never participated in any form or sport at any capacity.

You thinking this says I've never participated in any form of sport at any capacity shows you have never participated in any form of sport at any capacity.

What I said is absolutely true and if you disagree I'll send you location and we can settle it in a wrestling match.

Notching wins in the preeminent organization in the sport in the entire world constitutes someone who "sucks at fighting"? Are you hearing yourself?

That's like saying someone who makes it to the NFL and is actually fielded as a player for a team on a day they earn a win-- even if they are a losing team overall including with that player on the field-- is someone who "sucks" at football. That's a moronic criterion for success. Only something like 0.000008% of guys who play competitive high school football ultimately make it to that level. Speaking exclusively of high school students with 4.0+ GPAs out there have a better chance of getting into Harvard or Stanford. Do the ones who get in but finish near the bottom of the class "suck" at school?

That's why, despite that there are some phenomental athletes in MMA succeeding at the highest level, you don't see them trotting over to qualify for those positions. The bar is too high.

The fact that these "elite athletes" are transitioning from a sport that is literally over 1000x more competitive than HW in MMA, but still can't become elite in their weightclass, even with years of training and competing, is a clear proof of how little the attributes that made them elite in handegg, help in fighting. This is what you are struggling to understand.

If you don't have a certain specific mentality you can never become elite in fighting, and that mentality is extremely rare among population. The probability that an elite handegg player also happens to be a fighter in heart is close to zero. That's why you see them struggling that try.

And keep in mind, that these greg hardy - types are the toughest guys in their NFL locker rooms, the ones that do try MMA are the closest of having that required mentality. All the rest, the vast majority of them, wouldn't do even close to as good as Hardy. You do understand that, right? Greg Hardy doesn't represent the average NFL player as a fighter, he represents the elite among NFL players. Over 95% of them would be scared of hard sparring and they would openly admit that to you. They do completely different sport for a living.

Have a good day.

Greg Hardy did ok in ufc. The step up in competition was too much too soon for him

Not back to back KO losses. Had two fights as part of the team events in May and won both.

I see there are now five pages on this thread so it's possible someone else already answered you, and probably better but here is my understanding of the Team Combat League.

Each team has a handful of guys, the "Matches" are 18 rounds with a 10-minute "halftime" after round 12. I believe you get a point for winning the round, and if you KO/TKO your opponent you get 2 points. I think fighters are only allowed to go 1 round at a time, but can fight multiple times in the night (as seen by Hardy's two wins in the past team event in May). Hope that helps a little.

Thanks, but this thread has AIDS now with all the stupid "A-level athlete" arguments.

Not at all. The fact that 99.99% of heavyweight men, even if they also trained & fought in MMA for years, would never even make it to the UFC, much less win a single fight there, is what you fail to understand. The problem is that 99.999992% of men couldn't make the cut or enjoy modest success in the NFL. Because while their attributes might be ideal for football, not for fighting, these former NFLers have still proven themselves capable of participating at the UFC-level. Meanwhile, UFC fighters, while their attributes might be a more ideal combination for MMA, not football, they haven't made it to the NFL at all.

That's the difference. That's what you fail to grasp. There are levels.

Who cares, what does any of this have to do with Greg Hardy getting sent to the canvas?

 

[ejazahmednit]

Inhaler boy going 17 rounds?

 

[cheesus]

How does this get licensed? A 2-0 HW sideshow vs 18-3 seasoned vet?

Brock Lesnar says hello

Brock Lesnar didn't come close to making it in the NFL ... but won a UFC title ... you're proving his point. He got to cosplay as a football player with his home team as a preseason PR gimmick and was released...and that was like 4 years before he decided to give MMA a shot, lmao.

 

[MigitAs]

Good, fuck him, hope it continues.

Yeah he hit women

And Greg Hardy was an All-Star NFL football player who couldn't cut it in the UFC and can't cut it in whatever obscure fighting leagues he's doing now, either.

This is as good as that 3 on 3 Russian MMA league or whatever that was.

[Jawth]
