I realized why everyone hates Du Pleases

Because he beat fighters with big fanbase, next one is Khamzat and he has huge fanbase too
 
Im not sure why the hate , hes quite personable, speaks eloquently, had elite skills despite the armchair experts opinions and well, I have a dutch background,my great grandfather was a police inspector in the SA police force...
 
What I meant by "hate" is he doesn't get the respect that normally comes with his resume. People are still not convinced with his skill level, almost like he's cheating or something. I'm not hating on him, just trying to comment on the paradox of the little respect he gets for being a skilled fighter. He's the button masher version of a real life professional fighter.
So you just completely changed the definition of a word?
 
DDP is awesome. His cardio looks great because he's been in control the entire time of pretty much his last few fights. Even the 1st Sean fight, he dictated where the fight went the whole time.

I expect him to look far more tired against Khamzat, someone who will force grappling on him and is far, far superior in that dept than everyone Dricus faced so far
 
Haven't seen him hated at all, going into the fight everyone was talking about Strickland at the presser and the shirt he was wearing and all the hate was for Strickland, also after the fight saying Strickland is boring and does barely anything etc etc, very little hate for DDP. Not sure whats going on here, maybe you mean Strickland.

He just wanted to give the video game metaphor which has been said a hundred times before. Doesn’t even really apply to DDP who is very cerebral
 
Really askin for it with this thread title lol
 
It's because he fights like a button masher wins playing video games. It was the opening feel out sequence of left kick to the head (x), left kick to the head(x), punch (o) and seeing Strickland respond like wtf that made me realize it. He's just literally mashing buttons and winning because button mashing is unstoppable.
people pretending driccus cant fight is the weirdest shit iv seen from an ENTIRE FAN BASE AND FIGHTERS

hes out there useing a full mma game, kicks, punches, grappling, foot work. understand taxing and taking away from an opponents cardio. im not saying it dosnt look unpolished at times but i dont understand what the fuck everyone else is seeing.

if he dogs alex p will that lift this nonsense?

reminds me back before everyone pretended they were always a cruz fan, before he was injured and came back(classic pro wrestling trop). Everyone hated cruz, "omg decisionator, he pulls away from his punches. LOL his style."

Driccus might have to get legit injured and shelfed for people to actually give him fuckin credit. I get it, he used to be White Brunson. He got better.
 
Ddp literally admits he has no technique or plan in a video years ago lol
 
Some people see DDP through the lens of why can't this be art? People like myself see DDP and think god damn, this MFer is a monster full of piss, vinegar, and determination. I like my outlook better. Particularly since it is hard to fight Strickland and look great.
 
I actually like Dricus a lot more after watching his interviews, seems like a solid dude. Yes, he doesn't win pretty sometimes, but the guy knows how to win and that's all that matters really.
