RIP Bo Nickal hype train

I don't want to make assumptions because I have no idea about his camp and training but he looked like a fighter who has never taken real damage before and this was the first time he's had to react and deal with it.

Like the prized possession of the gym where the coach told the others not to go hard on him. It reminds me a lot of Brock Lesnar.
 
Bo Dallas is just a Murican version of Mike Mallott. Wilts the moment he has to face adversity.
 
You don't weigh a man's grit before hard times come, grit is measured after. In the fight game, the worst thing that could happen just did. He looked less than good and was finished in solid fashion. Now we see what Bo Nickal is made of with respect to MMA.

With that said, I had hopes he could make the transition from wrestling to MMA, but he doesn't look good and I'm not optimistic he can have any serious impact within the sport.

Nightmare matchup? A fucking Judoka that can't strike and is 35? Stylistically it was an opponent chosen ideally to favor Bo. You dumb? Bo just sucks, he was getting roughed up by fucking Brundage and looked like sbit vs Craig lmao. Goofy.
 
Ezzzzz work, can't believe this guy wasn't signed by the UFC but we get a lot of 10-3 28 year olds from Mexico. Lmao.
 
It seems to me that Bo has no will to suffer to became champion.

Who's the one who conviced him to invest his youth in MMA?

I think he will retire soon.

Def looked like shit. shit striking, doesnt have that heart and dog in him to get into a war. He's not someone who is ever gonna be a top guy.

They shouldnt have made that fight, he really did need a few more before top 15 and if they wanted to rush him into it they shouldnt have given him RDR.

Back to unranked guys now but doesnt look like he's gonna go very far. He's not making big improvements in his game.

Honestly I wanted Bo to succeed, but I could tell just from the way he moved and looked in the cage already against Pickett that he wasn't going to be as good as the hype, and then by the Brundage fight it was getting obvious.

Then again I remember thinking that about Cormier vs Devin Cole and I clearly couldn't have been more wrong about that one 😄
 
It's a fighter with less than ten fights fighting someone who has double the fights. The fight was Bo's to lose. That guillotine attempt cost him the fight.
 
“Nickel sucks”

Luke strikes again


Nickal sucks': Fighters react to Reinier de Ridder's TKO of Bo…..”​


Check out the tweets- Holland calls RDR a Silverback lol

He runs his own gym and camp so I’d say that’s accurate. It’s like his own personal American top team.

What did you think when you first saw Khamzat? Just curious.
 
Somebody tell Bo he ain't wrestling at Penn State anymore.

These guys are trained fighters not college kids.
