Can I cite the Nah-Shon Burrell fight to Wonderboy from a while back or has it been too long to hold any weight? But what I meant was Burrell pretty much got the clinch when he wanted (but he ate a shitload of shots). The only question here is whether who's fresher in the 4th and 5th rounds.
Man I hear you but I don't think you can read too much into that. The fact it was 3 years ago is one thing, but even more important might be that Wonderboy was still sort of in his MMA infancy (or at least he was an MMA toddler LOL). 3 years into his career and like 6 or 7 fights I think?
I think it's unrealistic to think Johnny isn't going to hit any takedowns and will have no time with top position. But I was impressed how quickly he popped back up vs Ellenburger when Jake took him down. I'd be really surprised if we see Johnny blanketing Wonderboy for most of the fight.
