Has there ever been a more impressive and complete striker at lighter weights than todays Burns?

[spacetime]

I was supremely impressed, although he was definately vulnerable against Woodley.

I give him an 8 out of 10 on power and a 6. 5/10 on technique..

We've had impressive strikers before but never with both hands and feet at the same time. Not like this. He hit so fucking hard too.

 

[Xoleth]

He is good, indeed.
Hard to think of one.

 

[TITS]

Just stop with the Burns ballwashing already. He is average at best.

 

[Andreh]

Lol? Who is Burns in the bakery waiting line? A NOBODY. There are plenty better than him. Next.

Khabib beats everyone at 170 and below.

 

[calisoul]

yes

*sigh*

His 3 best wins are nelson, maia, and Woodley. None of them are strikers, and only Woodley is even passable in that area. And on top of that, Woodley is 38 and hasn't looked great in years. Let's hold off on the praise till he beats another striker.

I'd give him a chance against anyone at 170 tbh

This guy is a well known troll. Don't feed him.

He has been doing this kind of crap threads in other subforums.

Wow, I didn't know Burns had an account on here. Good luck against Usman.

Burns is the first man to finish Maia since Nate the Great also exposed Woodley on short notice which is always fun to see. I think he's probably the most well rounded WW we've seen in years

 

[Brodie]

Nope, he's the best ever.

When he knocked out renowned striker Damian Maia in his prime, it was cemented.

Yes, I meant well rounded striker. He is far from best as a fighter.

Everyone was so high on Woodley for beating 1 dimensional fighters now that he's facing well rounded ones he "hasn't looked good in years". Usman, Burns and even Colby would beat Woodley at any point in his career

You don't think people can improve??

And Woodley fought well, it just wasn't enough. Has he lost some of his power after the surgery?

I know I sound like GSP now. GSP suffers from recency bias...

I blinked and missed him, against Conor.
