Is Megan Anderson overrated?

[Hades86]

What sucks is we really didn't get to see her stand up. She could be a Striking assassin for all we know. She seemed to hurt Holly pretty bad with a knee. Holly didn't want that smoke and went for the TD which is rare..

 

[Jorge Luis Borges]

Cat is also so overrated.

Cat actually had some great wins though. At her best, she was a much better fighter than Anderson will ever be.

 

[Jorge Luis Borges]

Cindy Dandois finished her. Could never get hyped for her because of that.

Lol I see your point, but it should be noted that Dandois was a pretty good finishing rate in her wins. 9 out of 12 by submission or tko.

Yeah. Cindy has shit striking (makes Ronda look like an expert) but she has pretty damn good grappling.

I haven't seen any of her tko wins that I remember, but I'd imagine they were some sort of ground and pound.

 

[VinceArch]

Amanda would destroy her now though. Any MMA fan with half a brain knows this.

Okay, but that doesn't mean she is over rated which was your original argument.

Unsurprisingly correct.

It kinda does coz she was never that great. She's considered a top Bantamweight contender when she has Rousey level striking and really bad fight IQ.

 

[Better Every Day]

Yeah, that's how Dandois got an MMA TKO of Jorina Baars, who, you may remember, beat up Cyborg in a kickboxing match.

 

[VinceArch]

It kinda does coz she was never that great. She's considered a top Bantamweight contender when she has Rousey level striking and really bad fight IQ.

She still beat Takayo Hashi, Raquel Pennington, Miesha Tate and Amanda Nunes in that order and finished all of them. Not bad for "Rousey level striking" and "really bad" fight IQ. She's definitely got a decent fight resume.

 

[lostdog000]

never been a good fighter. ok striker, bad grappler, good at passin usada. big enough for cyborg but not skiled enough

 

[TheJewBear]

She's past her prime at this point. She's not going to get better at this stage in her career.

The point is that she was absolutely one of the top female fighters in the world and then her husband committed suicide fucking her up.

I think Cat has regressed and actually become much worse in the past few years. She peaked against Nunes.
If her gameplan against Ronda was different, that could have been a good fight.

But in her last two fights she looked very soft, slow and sluggish, wildly swinging and not fighting smart.

 

[K-Bag]

Fighter Kevin Lee is overrated

 

[leto1776]

Megan benefitted heavily from an unearned push by Zuffa llc owned Invicta FC.

 

[Yacob]

It’s funny...

@IngaVovchanchyn

Said in the pbp...



It was totally sarcastic. But it is so far fetched?

GSP enters the UFC at 5-0 as a champion. Spencer entered at 6-0 as a champion.

Now GSP did not fight the number 3 fighter in the world in his debut. And, managed a decision over Karo. Felicia however did face the number 3 fighter in her division and waxed her ass in less than 1 round.

So, can I ask. Instead of ppl dumping on Megan. Can we get some love for Fee? She’s doing just as good as GSP did, and will likely be getting a title fight just as early as he did.

Why always the disparaging remarks towards one, while never giving props to the other? Before the fight a majority of you said Megan was going to knock this fat Canadian clown out. After the fight those same ppl said Megan was a can.

Ppl here are generally so focused on hating on one thing. That they can’t give the slightest bit of love to the other.

Yes Inga, even though you were being sarcastic as fuck. Fee might just be the new GSP.

Agreed all the way around. Cat's gameplan against Ronda was equally as awful as Aldo's against Conor. She's clearly past her prime at this point.

 

[Muay Thai #1]

Her ground game is not that good, but her standup isn't bad. Definitely not the worst fighter in the UFC

 

[TRYHARD 2001]

She's just a big, clumsy girl. That's literally it.

Of course, that could describe the lion's share of WMMA, really.

Cue the WMMA bloopers...

 

[Andreh]

She is a female Dhalsim and nothing more.
