Ben Askren had really good takedowns & guard passing. His wrestling is obviously world-class. He has some great jiu-jitsu guys teaching him guard passing. I liked his armbar attempt from the guard early in the fight too! His trainers' influences are obvious in how he fights...
Now Ben just has to work on his submissions, neutralizing the other guy, and ground & pound. I'm sure he knows he has to work on it too. Of course, it is easy to be critical from the stands. It is much harder in a Bellator title fight!!! He did great all things considered!
