Pretty simple. Is there any fight you have on your mind where you just scratch your head and wonder why its not being praised or a guy did a great job but not talked about? Or something like that. Let me start off by saying i was very impressed with Siver when he beat Sotiropoulous and Andre winner. The dude knows how to rise to the occasion.
I didn't see anyone speaking about it so I consider it underrated but Jumabieke Tuerxun looked pretty great against Leandro Issa up until Issa armbarred him. Granted, Issa may have been winning anyway but i felt Tuerxun was holding his own in the striking and really came to put on a show win or lose
really enjoyed Belcher's tooling of Paul Harris. Great performance. He really hasn't had even a decent one since.
People arent giving shad his props tho. He did very well against Jones (on the outside) before he got dropped and decided "fuck this i'd rather survive than eating another elbow"
I watched him on the regional scene beating guys he wasn't supposed too, and have seen him in training a few times too. Dudes a beast and I was shcoked that Gus made it look so easy. Also I think Rampage has said a few times how good Manuwa is too
Thomson vs. Melendez I. It legitimately wasn't even a close fight. That's a good one. Last time I ever saw Hendo try to wrestle lol. great fight too. This plus the rematch where I heard a WW in Diaz actually went for takedowns and wall'n'stalled on the natural LW in KJ Noons. Best boxer in mma, folks
Hominick vs Aldo. He looked like a bird was gonna hatch out his head after, but he actually finished that fight really strong.
