Media Justin Gaethje: ‘I’m the most exciting fighter that has ever stepped in that octagon in the history

[Bearknuckle]

when you got nothing going for yourselves, you start going for titles that don't matter.

CHandler did the same thing . Went from saying he's the best lightweight in the world, to most fighting, put butts in seats.

Yep. I think thats what he’s going for now. He’s 34 and knows he probably wont get a title shot, so he markets himself as the most exciting ever lol. He’s exciting, but theres more to being exciting than just swinging and getting hit.

just swinging and getting hit.

Thats generally what most fights are.

Read my posts above. I dont see why guys equate swinging hooks wildly exciting. U see that shit at many low level mma shows.

So Anderson is your pick? Nice pick, some of his bouts are boring like Leites, Maya & Chael Sonnen 1, which was boring until that submission, The Diaz fight just flat weird like his fights in the later parts of his career. Now if you're taking about exciting as in anticipation for a bout of his, I've only been excited for his bouts with Henderson, Vitor, Sonnen 2 & Bisping. He's a very technical fighter which can result to moments in the bouts where there's low in action, but that isn't taking anything away from his amazing finishes. That's is your opinion.

Thats one fight though, Not all of don and takayama's fights are like that.

I thought you said swinging and getting hit sucked????

I thought you said the only exciting fighters are the ones who do 360 iranian flying judo chops???

WHAT IS THIS???

Then takayama is more exciting than justin. Ive seen tons of wild brawls at small mma events, nothing special anymore

That is just silly


Takayama is HOTTER than Justin,but he hasnt filled the JBG chalice to overflowing on the absolutley exquisite consistent basis as Justin G

My vote goes to Lesnar. He's the only guy I've ever seen that got people watching who had zero interest in mma, boxing or wrestling.

He brought a spectacle and an entirely different crowd of complete randoms, he was like GoT or The Avengers everyone was tuning in even if they dislike the genre.

Gaethje’s fight with khabib is boring then. He swings and misses and gets taken down and subbed. Not exciting.

The most “Punch Drunk” maybe.

I dont find his fights at all exciting

It helps to watch the fight and not just read about it on play by play

 

[StonedLemur]

Hunto was more exciting in my opinion.

The fuckin Bigfoot fight alone ffs.

I posted that gif to show u that just cuz guys swing doesnt make them exciting. Thats bum shit, and its fun sure. But if thats ALL YOU DO? Than no, ur not exicitng. Ur basic af.

Anderson has variety, flash, style and viciousness in tons of fights at the highest level. Even hailmary submissions are exciting. Or clowning and getting ko’d. Or standing with his back agains the cage and doing wing chun or whatever its hilarious and ENTERTAINING. Swinging punches just seems, kinda boring after u seen it so many times, but u dont always see upward elbows and spinning shit.
