Jailton has nothing for top 5, we're somehow gonna be in one of the worst HW eras..... Again

[ExitLUPin]

Aspinall, Pavlovich and Gane are only noteworthy HWs w/ Jon finna retire and Stipe being 42yo. And Gane is one of the worst grapplers in all of UFC <Lmaoo><Lmaoo>

Volkov or Blaydes are the next best.... And both are gatekeepers at best in better eras weve seen for HW. Volkov wasnt even best HW in Bellator when he was there got MURKED by Minakov who was better prime for prime and hes just trudging along a weak era now.

Blaydes is one of the few who can grapple now but his fight IQ is in the 20s. He cant mix his striking with his wrestling or set up his strikes. He is a KO waiting to happen at any point. 45yo Hunto dropped him twice and almost KOd him in 1st round to a decision loss. He was a grandpa at that point LMAO imagine prime Hunto. Same 45yo Hunto smashed prime Lewis and made him quit just shows the talent of previous eras.

Jailton has been able to abuse a horrific era of HW but not being able to finish Lewis exposed him. His GNP is dogshit and he has no striking. He wouldnt be ranked in stronger HW eras.......\

mid 2000s PRIDE HW peak
2011-14 era UFC HW

He joins Shawn Jordan and Tony Johnson as only fighters to beat and not finish Lewis LMAOOO

Francis
Delija
Goltsov
Malykhin
Goncharov

these 5 would absolutely murk 99% of division now and they arent in UFC. They are EASILY top 10 if not top 5 right now and we know Francis is undoubtedly the best.

Instead we have Tai and Lewis top 10........2 no grappling club brawlers w/ KO power

Rozenstruik much like them but just more technical w/o power.

1 round gas Spivak and Romanov ranked. Theyre supposed to be 2 of the best grapplers and were considered future contenders till they got derailed..... by MARCIN TYBURA a gatekeeper to top 20 in better HW eras I named before. Instead hes a top 10 guy now LMAO.

40yo Marcos Rogerio De Lima, 40yo Shamil was recently until Jailton beat him (LMAO) is ranked right now and so is Martin Budiay????

 

[Hdfi]

Jailton would beat Gane.

 

[don't ask]

Nemkov is moving up to HW and is easily one of the top 5 in the world. Bader would also do well in the UFC. Actually, Corey Hill and Phil Davis would also do well at LHW in the UFC.

The UFC is really letting some of their divisions collapse.

 

[ExitLUPin]

Jailton would beat Gane.

He very well could. Gane has the grappling of a Sherdogger.

But Gane matches up much better w/ rest of division than Jailton does.

 

[MigitAs]

Jailton would beat Gane.

That fight won’t happen, either Gane won’t take it or UFC won’t make it

[ExitLUPin]

That was my reaction to this fight

 

[Pierced7681]

I think Jailton is top 5 if you don’t include jones and Stipe who are both retiring after their fight

Pavlovich
Aspinall
Gane
Blaydes
Jailton

 

[Arm Barbarian]

He very well could. Gane has the grappling of a Sherdogger.

But Gane matches up much better w/ rest of division than Jailton does.

The average 6'7" 5% bodyfat sherdogger could wrassle da brakes clean offa Cereal Gains.

 

[ExitLUPin]

Pavlovich
Aspinall
Gane
Blaydes
Jailton

Volkov is better IMO

Jailton is no Aspinall

 

[Jose Beehive]

Anything can happen, look how quick some of these guys got to the top, another couple years and I would not be surprised if most of the top 15 are replaced by up and comers.

Aspinall, Gane, Pavlovich and Jailton were not in the UFC 5 years ago now they are all contenders.

Mentioned it a couple of times already but Mick Parkin vs Pogues gave me hope for the future of HW, highly recommend anyone watching it if you haven't already.

 

[sdpdude9]

Only on sherdog can you win every round and never be in trouble but still be “exposed”. It was uneventful but still largely one sided.

 

[Pierced7681]

Volkov is better IMO

Jailton is no Aspinall

Volkov has losses to Lewis, Aspinall, Blaydes off the top of my head. Jailton is better, I think he beats Volkov.

Winning rounds against Derrick Lewis doesnt mean a whole lot

He arguably lost decisions to LHW 5'9 Latifi

Jailton joined Shawn Jordan and Tony Johnson as the only fighters to beat Lewis and not finish him <Lmaoo><Lmaoo><Lmaoo><Lmaoo><Lmaoo>

 

[Hdfi]

But Gane matches up much better w/ rest of division than Jailton does.

I'm not sure about that. They have 2 opponents in common and Jailton was more dominant against Rozenstruik and 50-44'd Lewis.

 

[ExitLUPin]

I'm not sure about that. They have 2 opponents in common (Rozenstruik and Lewis) and Jailton was more dominant against Rozenstruik and 50-44'd Lewis.

Yeah but those 2 opponents have nonexistent grappling. Its a favorite matchup for Jailton.

Would Jailton do as well against Volkov, Spivak or Francis as Gane did? I dont think so.

Not meaning a whole lot doesn’t mean exposed. Exposed would be showing big holes in your game. That didn’t happen as he won every round and wasn’t in trouble at any point.

 

[DrRodentia]

He very well could. Gane has the grappling of a Sherdogger.

But Gane matches up much better w/ rest of division than Jailton does.

So he could beat Game, but he has nothing for the top 5 of the division? He could beat anyone in the top 5 with his style, ugly or not.

He definitely does need to up his GnP game though.

 

[ExitLUPin]

Not meaning a whole lot doesn’t mean exposed. Exposed would be showing big holes in your game. That didn’t happen as he won every round and wasn’t in trouble at any point.

He def showed holes in his game

He is a pure BJJ grappler with

weak nonexistent GNP
horrendous striking he has no confidence in
cant instasub a true HW w/ some grappling instincts since he doesnt have HW size, power or strength

Rest of HWs ahead of him are big trouble

No more Parker Porker, Pleasure Man, 40yo Shamil or bar brawlers for him.
