Is this the definition of I showed up for the paycheck or what?

[Kryptt]

Rampage against Fedor would be a better example

Figured I'd add a gif for it.

 

[PunchKicker]

u tell me? Or maybe JDS needs some heavy duty eyeglasses?

Honestly JDS has a hella chin. He really did give up though but after those punches in the gif, he just sits on his knees and covers up with no effort. Even took some punches I believe and never had the lights shut off. Would have loved to see a prime JDS vs Prime Ngannou and that easy money would be on JDS.

Horrible example. Watch the Conor vs Cowboy fight if you want to see what that looks like. Hell, Cowboy even fully admitted it.

Arlovski got hit while in the air attempting a flashy move.

He was piecing him up just prior. Using straight boxing.

no he wasn't..if you watch it in slow motion Fedor was basically blocking and parrying the entire time. you will call me a nuthugger but seriously watch again..Fedor saw just about everything coming. it was a master class in reeling someone in...

The guy the Tibetan fighter beat on the preliminaries this past weekend.

That guy slow flopped.

 

[Genisys]

Anderson had how long to train for it??

One day and actually didn’t do that bad. He wasn’t even able to make it a 5 round fight because of his lack of conditioning.

 

[SHAZAM]

Nah. He wasn't supposed to get hit there. He always does that and nobody capitalizes like Ngannou. It's good MMA striking. Ngannou is just on a different level. He was safe. Just not against Ngannou.

Arlovski got hit while in the air attempting a flashy move.

He was piecing him up just prior. Using straight boxing.

I'm a Arlovski fanboy, but he didn't land a single clean punch on Fedor.

 

[empsim]

Cerrone vs Conor

 

[Goatbib]

Its sad to see the fall of JDS. In hi prime, he was no less scaier than Ngannou.

 

[kenetics]

Rampage against Fedor would be a better example. ...or any recent Bob Sapp-fight.

Bob sapp is the only answer.

 

[Koimpact]

JDS came in with the intention of leaving with a scalp or going out on his shield. I can definitely respect that. He went in for a KO punch, missed and was punished for it

 

[Rhood]

No
This is one of the worst analogies ever in MMA.

Guys that just show up for the paycheck are the ones that don't fight.
Yoel Romero vs Adesanya is a good example.
Kimbo Slice vs Houston Alexander is another example.

 

[Ozze]

DC vs. Silva.
