Very similar movement to Dillashaw, also very agile. I could see him in the top 15 within a year or so
 
Easy does it.
 
cool prospect, was a pleasure to watch his performance .
 
Skill wise, I agree. His composure though? Yikes
 
I liked what I just witnessed, but there is a lot more to see before calling him the 155 Dillashaw. I'm looking forward to his next fight.

Good call, they do resemble each other.

As for the OP, yes, he's likely snatched a system of movements from Dillashaw, but he's not as fluid or active as Dillashaw. Everything may change though, he's 31 with 5 years of pro career.
 
Lightweight division ? No, Goat's division. True cowboy's division. No more big bear, little bear's division... Khabib's division !
 
with that tattoo on his chest and his build I swear to god I was watching a LW gsp in there. Especially his side profile, surprised no ones brought this up yet.
 
He looked like a Tour de France cyclist in the last 30 seconds.

Yes I seen his finger

I did, I did indeed. I'm just saying, to be the best, you can't freak out over a broken finger during the fight. He nearly got knocked out running away, no attempt to tie up at all

I can't believe it was a split decision. Like what two rounds could Tuck possibly have won

i was thinking about maybe a 10-8 draw from 1 judge. but that means a 10-7. he never ever won one of the 2 first rounds. just pathetic
 
Yeah he did panic but it's understandable.
 
Looks like he could be a legit contender. Great head movement.

5'7" 70" reach, kinda small for 155. He's muscular enough all over, that he could definitely sacrifice a bit of it and make 145
