Kron had the most pathetic performance from a male fighter since CM Punk

[AmonTobin]

Kron Gracie is the biggest blunder the UFC has made in recent memory. In the press events he acted bored and contemptuous with his one word answers. In the cage he looked like he was going to test positive for Xanax and then go back to napping on a park bench. Kron and the UFC can eat shit for putting him on the main card.

Wrong babyboi. Askren won round 2. Kron did literally nothing but eat shots, pull guard and eat more shots.

Askren at least tried to fight offensively. His striking is atrocious but his wrestling is good. Flopping to your back and begging/praying your opponent will fight you on the ground is completely different. Imagine if both guys fought like that.

What about TJ turning up with 1 arm?

Gilbert burns should have taken notes tj couldn’t even move his arm and was throwing everything else and couldn’t even raise his arm to black.

Gilbert full range of motion and did absolutely nothing.

and Kron at least he tried. Looked bad but was trying.

It was as if he has never watched MMA before, does he not realise that sloppily following your opponent around and then pulling guard is never gonna get you the W if it goes to points?!?! So frustrating to watch!!!

So many guys are ready for him on the ground, this ain't BJJ, you WILL eat punches from your back!

Lets not act like there aren't strikers who are just as one dimensional, with major wrestling/grappling deficiency. We just saw Jones "win" a "title" (no he didn't, Gane was never champ), by submitting a kickboxer who looks like he's never rolled a day in his life.Then we have 185 where Izzy and Alex's grappling credentials combined are a blue belt and junior high school sprawling.

Many high level fighters in the UFC are one dimensional, but because every fight starts standing they don't get exposed like this as often. Do you know how many fights Alex Pereira, Izzy or Cyril Gane would've won if they had to start every fight on all fours in a wrestling position or in a double leglock BJJ position? very few, they'd be pointed and laughed at and none of them would've sniffed a title fight.

There is still a difference. If you are going to be only a grappler you better be proficient at getting the guy to the ground. The buttscooting shit is made fun of for a reason. That shit just don't cut it anymore. Whereas Gane is a main event star w his striking ability because he can actually fucking impose it on people most of the time

This is what uncle Dana said about it.
