Peak Johny Hendricks would have destroyed the best moderns Welterweights

[Kertol]

Johny Henricks at his peak would have wrecked the modern welterweight fighters.
He had better wrestling and better striking than all of them especially in the knockout power department.

If a guy like Masvidal was to have the advantage on the feet Hendricks would have just mixed up the game plan to win like he has in the past against certain opponents, plus Masvidal can be chinny at times.

Usman and Colby wouldn't have been able to outwrestle him and would get knocked out on the feet.

Against Woodley, Hendricks essentially was the better version of him in all areas plus a more diversified attack and way better cardio.

 

[RawkyMarciano]

Agreed

Hendricks was a beast on his time, his KO power was great but a little bit overrated considering that his last KO was in 2012.

 

[dc007]

Nah

 

[Kertol]

Yeah but he was on steroids. Give Usman, Woodley, Masvidal and Leon the same shit Hendricks was on, they would absolutely destroy him.

There is no proof he was on anything. It was just other fighters suspicions. The same suspicions were raised against Usman. There is just as little proof.

 

[EYEKICKFACES]

You mean roided to the gills Johny? Maybe.

I said peak Hendricks.

Regardless his KO power is still more than the top WW guys.

Hendricks had a short peak, so hard to really pin it down. Had him winning gsp fight. Oh well, if anyone fought him at that time they probably would have lost but probably only within the span of that year. Pretty much pre titile hendricks rekt, then he was done

 

[papajohns]

When he was on that run he looked pretty unbeatable. Crazy how fast it seemed like overnight he just went completely down hill.

 

[Portland8242]

plus Masvidal can be chinny at times.

Literally never been KO'd before in his career, but just keep making shit up.

 

[Moro]

Peak Hendricks was juiced to the fucking neck and eyeballs.

 

[Paulsp]

Prime Hendricks is the best WW ever

 

[tc300]

can not agree on this.... his downfall speaks for its self.

 

[Pascal Bergeron]

non verbal admission
Its pretty obvious he was with that and his result post usada

 

[RockyLockridge]

probably.

The guy has been dropped so many times.

I dont think Hendricks offensive wrestling was so unstoppable, particularly by more capable wrestlers than Condit or Magny.

 

[THEfightsAREfixed]

prime hendricks was a flash in the pan but his wrestling up there as best ever to enter the octagon and when he was mixing it up with huge bombs he is elite at a level above current WWs like GSP

The same interpretation can be made with how Usman reacted to Colby's claims he was on PEDs.

never said anything about usman and wouldn't be surprised if usman gets pop for EPO

 

[Xoleth]

Yeah, Hendricks was on roids, but Usman and Woodley weren't/aren't.
