Why is it so hard to believe that a fighter would go easy early on in the fight? It's an extremely common tactic. I know you watch a lot of fights, this should have been obvious to you.
Now I will certainly agree that Daniels has at least proven himself to be a tough fighter.
Holzken was absolutely going easy in the first 2 rounds however.
Theres a difference between going easy and putting yourself in unfavorable positions, missing punches and looking sluggish. I wrote in the live thread Holzken is preserving energy myself but there is no denying he looked off. at least to me.
the truth is probably somewhere in the middle.
Yup, just coincidence that nieky picked up the pace and it ended
Has more to do with the fact that Daniels can't take a punch.
