LOL "focused" Salty Luke

[Toothy]

What the hell did we watch in the last fights.. ? Unfocused Luke? .. you lost to the fucking Count FFS.

I love that statement .." when I'm feeling good.. watch out!!!" Basically admitting not being 100%in the other fights... so essentially an excuse?

he's giving sea level Cain a run for his money.

Someone remind me of the" full camp" fighter.. I forgot.

Yay he's still delusional! expect him to lose now. What will it take to beat humility into him?

Are you saying that every single fighter ever is 100 percent healthy, mentally and physically?

Maybe the Mercenary of Yahweh!! I don't even care who wins... just want to see some carnage for at least 2 rounds!

That's how I go to work every day.. well maybe sometime 99.5%.

I'm not hating on Luke.. I just think those types of statements are funny.. At least Liddell only said "I got caught".. Did he ever go the Tito "my back is broke" route? (Luke far from that don't get me wrong). I don't think?

Do you agree with my question or not.

Why did this get wasteland'ed? Fuck man first thread I start in 6 years, in fun.. about a current UFC fighter and future main eventer.. wasteland..

Maybe I should have started another Conor nut garbling thread.

Humility isn't conducive to competitive drive.
He has to believe he's the best in the world, and has an abundance of untapped potential.
Otherwise, he's just collecting checks and going through the motions.

What the fuck do you think 100% is? You could never be better , faster , or more polished? Obviously I know there are aches in pains in every fighter, as in the rest of us non-cage fighters.. "100%" is however good you feel as of late.. you still got some nagging shit going on somewhere. therefore mentioning it in an interview is viewed as an excuse by me, basically because 100% doesn't exist.

I don't know. Silva wan't 100% in the first Sonnen fight and got his ass handed to him for 4 3/4 rounds. He was healthy the second time around and the fight ended pretty fast. I agree that nobody is probably ever 100%, but all injuries aren't equal. Fighting with a torn ligament is different than fighting with a strained ligament.

I agree completely .. however, didn't Chael pop in the first fight?.. That'll make your opponent look less than 100% lol! All I'm saying is every fighter can say that 100%/focused/ sea level/proper camp, shit EVERY fight if they want to. It shouldnt be brought up because its an improvable platitude focusing on past failed performances.

Having a high level of self confidence is a good thing, believing you're too good and don't have any holes in your game is where the problem lies. Being introspective and thinking hmm I took mike too lightly, or perhaps I should focus on my fundamentals more would be more beneficial I'd think.

I like when fighter's handle it like Cain. He got whooped and didn't blame it on the altitude, even though it probably had a huge affect on him. Werdum came to Mexico early and got acclimated. Cain didn't and gassed. It's hard for things to not come up when there's a camera shoved in your face all the time. I agree they shouldn't volunteer the information, but if someone asks a little honesty won't hurt. If you watch the Rockhold/Bisping 2 fight you can see that Luke didn't respect Bisping and he paid the price and caused the division to be on hold. Thankfully GSP put an end to that in spectacular fashion. That was honestly one of my favorite fights in a long time.
