Josh Gross: Rosholt-Johnson was one of the lowest quality UFC fights I've seen.......

[Sgt Smith]

Rosholt's gameplan in any fight is inherently pretty boring, this fight was not exception. If anything, Johnson at least made the last minute of the fight exciting by looking to finish...and then he had a brainfart.

 

[tsarbomba]

fight was so bad.

 

[Mike01010101a]

The mustache guy looks like somebody from UFC 1-2-3. Movement, shape, cardio from 1994.

 

[Dragonseeker]

Soa/Bigfoot was a terrible fight as well.

 

[Ragnarocker]

This was one of the lowest quality UFC fights I've seen since Ronda fought Bethe last week.

 

[sherbrosrule]

IMHO every heavyweight fight should be on the undercard, until that heavy proves in a few fights he is decently skilled and in shape.

 

[AndrewGolota48]

And one guy was a high level collegiate wrestler, goes to show credentials are far from everything.

I thought it was a decent HW fight personally. Just have no idea how many pizzas and burgers Johnson must eat to maintain that gut while being a pro athlete. I guess even a lot of NFL guys have guts like that, but they are in a less cardio intensive sport.

 

[Docile]

Among males in this day and age: yeah it ranks pretty damn low.

 

[MusclesMarinara]

Tim's talent is marginal but at least he tried. And if he turned that in to an old timey handlebar mustache with some high waisted pants, I could be a fan. The caveman Rosholt is 4 minutes of cage grinding with 1 minute of top control.
Johnson v black beast
Rosholt v Mitrione

Josh Gross wasn't a fan of Jared Rosholt vs. Timothy Johnson at UFC Fight Night 73. I thought that it was an okay heavyweight fight. What are your thoughts?

wait... did you honest to god think that was "an okay heavyweight fight"?

That was definitely one of the lowest quality fights I've seen in a good 10 years. It reminded me of vintage, pre-zuffa UFC. That one belonged on UFC 4 and shit. HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE fight.

 

[christer]

I thought it was pretty funny but also boring.

 

[Rygu]

Either Rosholt and you're guaranteed a shitty gay porn wthout the penetration type fight.

 

[BobsyaUncle]

Not even close to the worst. Rosholt's fights with Omielanczuk and Palelei were worse for starters.

 

[esum80]

it was pretty bad.

 

[Drake]

It was terrible, but it had some comedic value, I think.

I lulled win Tim took Jared's back then slid off like a sack o' taters.

lol @ "the mustache guy" - while I was watching it my wife walked in the room, looked at the tv and said "shouldn't he be pulling someone over right about now?"

that stache. He's no Don Frye, but I guess that alone was worth a chuckle.

 

[mclj1]

Luckily, I skipped this fight

 

[JKS]

I was yelling for JOhnson to finish him the last round, he almost had it.

I compare watching Rosholt fights to going to a doctor to get results if you have a terminal illness

The funniest is when Johnson tried to punch him between his legs

 

[Doomsday666]

I'm not gonna defend the borefest that was this fight too much: but I honestly think Johnson would be up for more exciting fights, Rosholt just forced his game onto him. And Rosholt's game is literally the most boring thing in the entire UFC atm.

Agreed.

 

[Mikedh]

Rosholt should be cut. I guarantee you that Joe Silva regrets signing him. He stinks the place up in every single fight he's in. It's always the same in the end with Rosholt looking horribly gassed and desperately diving for takedowns to LnP for the win.

He is one of the least useful members of the roster. Makes lower tier hws look like crap (and not looking good himself) and then just gets knocked out every once awhile but won't ever really be someone to beat.
