He was dominating completely, but I to could not help feeling a little let down that he didnt choke him
jacare won that fight but he did not dominate.
ok here is honestly what I saw:
Jacare had:
multiple takedowns on miller
better ground positioning(mount, side control, back)
did more damage overall
Miller had:
exellent defense
multiple reversals(most notable is his reversals of jacare's mount)
and better standup(no suprise).
IMO Jacare definately won that fight
however
I was not so much impressed with jacare's performance on the ground(ofcourse i could not do any better).
I know miller actually has a great ground game and for all who are saying he's a brown belt - that is with the gi. Miller is easily black belt level in no gi , he is an exceptional grappler with good finishing ability.
however - with jacare's level of ground work and the way he dominates ADCC - i guess i figured he'd still dominate the grappler in miller more than he did.
Most people know that good no gi grappling does not equate to equal grappling in MMA but the things im talking about do not apply to the difference of MMA and no gi.
Miller had some good reversals and exellent defense. he was actually competitive on the ground with jacare and took advantage of a lot of situations. he was never really close to being submitted and reversed jac's positions quite easily at times(most notably were the two mount reversals he landed as soon as jacare achieved mount)
But - Miller is a good MMA fighter and has much more experience than jacare so props to jacare on a win vs a quality opponent(most of his other opponents were green or just much lesser in skill).
