Rothwell on the MMA hour

He actually did ... He said that everyone knows he can't defend a front kick and that the best way to describe his performance was body malfunction :/

Whatever. Dude had 5 full rounds to get it done against a conservative JDS and couldn't/didn't. Getting tired of these excuse-a-thons.

He said something like I was out on my feet at that point and that it wouldn't have happened otherwise. The whole interview was really cringe.

Yeah that's how I felt about the whole thing during the fight, it seemed that if jds would've followed up his overhand right with some other punches Rothwell would've been in big trouble

I was sad to hear Rothwell attempting to downplay JDS and his win. Still a fan though.

I would like to see Rothwell vs Arlovski 2 next, thats a good matchup to make, everyone else in top 10 is booked or just fought these 2

How would you know this? That's bullshit. How do you know this? Rothwell is awesome and a really nice guy.

Didn't he beat up a teenager with a mental disorder?
 
I'm a fan of Lord Ben of Rothwell, but he fought like dog shit in that fight

Like you didn't beat up a few kids with a mental disorder when you were 18 or however old he was in that fight.....I mean cmon.
 
JDS smacked him harder than I thought. He thinks it was close? What a delusional idiot.
 
Rothwell did say he fought the best JDS ever. And that he was half-knocked out at the end of the second where JDS landed the Sparta kick. But then criticzed JDS for not finishing him, lmao.

Collecting the excuses:
1. "Physical malfunction"
2. Alluding that fight could've been cancelled (Ariel didn't follow up)
3. Regrets taking on a guy coming off a loss
4. Alleging that Croatia was pro-Brazil
5. Hints that JDS was juicing

Forgot to mention that he said he didnt know ATT had a camp in Croatia and JDS was the guy everyone was getting by and the guy they pushed so the crowd wasnt behind him and that effected him... really crazy ....

Did he really say that last part? About it effecting him?

If so holy shit.

I agree 100%. You can't call out guys for cheating when you yourself have done the same thing. Same goes for Claudia calling JJ a bully yet she hit JJ well after the bell, Tim Kennedy crying about Romero yet clearly held onto Yoel's glove for a significant amount of time, Aldo saying McGregor is rude and disrespectful yet felt the need to throw homophobic slurs at Pettis before, and on and on. Be a professional, be mature, be an adult when it comes to discussing your fights and thoughts (selling a fight is a whole other matter). It seems like a lot of fighters lack this sense of self awareness and self critique.
