Petr Yan’s highly improved cardio

[FlyAmericanEagle]

What an amazing performance from Yan. Very surprised that he was able to turn it up in the latter rounds against Merab who is known to be a cardio machine.

Bravo. I never knew he had that capability. Looking forward to the rematch.

 

[Preston broadus]

I think it had something to do with merabs slight hesitation after getting blasted in the face a few times.

 

[SamuraiBro]

Don’t switch up now after getting roasted in your previous thread

 

[Pierced7681]

Yan has always had good cardio, he’s gone 5 rounds at a fast clip a few times before. He was more ready for Merab this time and made adjustments to beat him.

 

[Deadwing88]

OP was in Merabs jacuzzi evidently.

 

[markg171]

Nah. Yan got quantitatively outworked badly, but qualitively anded the better shots to win his rounds.

 

[josh345]

I want to see a rematch. I thought round 1 and 3 were pretty damn close. I think yan won 4 rounds but I have round 1 to Merab. In terms of damage he got beat up pretty bad though.

Yeah, it's so incredible how Yan was able to beat Merab for only 2 rounds, but lose 3.

 

[Gas121]

Yan was conserving his energy much more and making most of his shots count. He clearly studied Merab a lot for this fight.

 

[Big Tuppy Hole]

He looked bigger, stronger with extra cardio. Most probably found Nerabs secret recipe

 

[Cowboy Kurt Angle]

I’m not a dr but I think breaking your hand can effect cardio

 

[Hairrow]

Would Yan not be the first male Asia-born champ?

 

[TheMMAnalyst]

Guess he’s not getting sacrificed to the JBG @FlyAmericanEagle.

 

[Dim1]

He looked physically bigger and yet seemed to have a much increased battery. Amazing how he was able to generate so much more power over the full 5 rounds, just uncanny. He definitely must have improved his diet.

Or Russian creatine?

What ever it was, Yan looked good in that fight.

 

[The Blue Bird]

Haha cope harder

 

[HatKick]

He saved a lot of energy in the early part of the fight. Barely moved an inch as Merab was throwing haymakers. Also slowing Merab down with those body shots and fucked up nose slowed the pace a bit to his advantage.

yea peter blasted him full power in the end of the first and I think it fucked him up its crazy Merab wasnt dropped. How many times have we seen these endless cardio guys suddenly exhaust once they take some real damage Cain Colby etc

 

[FlyAmericanEagle]

Or Russian creatine?

What ever it was, Yan looked good in that fight.

Can Russian creatine make such a big difference? His strength and cardio was night and day

We have now seen three fighters improve their strength and cardio significantly and they all got ties to Russia…
