Media Proof King Green didn’t try to take down Paddy

I could use a breakdown like this on Green very clearly intentionally spearing Gordon with the top of his head.
 

Saw this earlier and found it pretty interesting.

Watching it live, I knew he didn't just panic shoot on Paddy, but I also didn't realize it was a result of the leg kicks forcing him into a vulnerable spot where he was out of any better options, so he committed to the takedown only to get wrapped up and put to sleep. And it all happened in a few seconds in real time.

Credit where credit is due, Paddy finessed him on that one
 
Think my break down is better
 
The amount of love Paddy gets from beating green is crazy. Dude is fringe top 15 at best who cares. Shit chandler is only slightly better and paddy will most likely get a title eliminator if he wins. That's how dumb ufc is now days

Paddy had notched 2 lackluster wins in a row and they put him against Green, who was 3 and 1 in his last 4 where had put Tony to sleep (Paddy couldn't finish Tony) before knocking out Grant Dawson and then he fucked Jim Miller up pretty convincingly at ufc 300.

Hindsight is 20/20, but I think many here felt that Green was a step up both in ranking and in experience. That if paddy was ever gonna pan out, we'd need to see him get through a guy like Bobby who wouldn't hesitate to engage him.

It was a great win by paddy, he got a great finish over a kill or be killed fighter that had the more impressive wins of the 2 coming in.

Paddy forced him to make an error and he latched onto him until the ref had to pull him off.
as a fan who neither loves nor dislikes him, Paddy earned a big finish and made it look easy
