Media Khabib Nurmagomedov vs. Abel Trujillo

He was fucking ragdolling him, controlling him.

If he wanted to just lay on top of him he would've, he wanted to more than that.
So you're saying he intentionally let him up? Controlling someone is not letting them up.

He was letting him up just so he could slam him again.

That's control.

So he could've finished him anytime he wanted to but wanted to slam him instead of knocking him out or submitting him?

Yes, as a show of dominance.
 
I don't think taking someone down 21 times in 3 rounds is impressive. That means they got back up everytime you took them down. I'd be more impressed with taking someone down 3 times and not letting them up. He dominated the fight, no doubt, but letting someone up that many times is not impressive at all. Trujillo must have been exhausted from getting up that many times.
It is impressive because he showed he can do it for as long as the fight lasts no problem.
And it shows how big of a mind fuck happens to a fighter who gets thrown around like that.
