Rothwell on the MMA hour

It's true he didn't fight to his full potential...

He didn't fight at all.

hope he bounces back, I'm a fan of the yette.
 
Ben Rothwell simply thought he was the best. Gotta have that self confidence. People think delusion is always bad but it is not. Delusion saves more lives everyday than pessimistic reality.
....yolo man yolo..
 
If I'm not mistaken he was never booed, yeah Junior had more support but that's because he's a former champ and is around for a longer time, which naturally leads to more fans, while Ben is relatively unknown, especially to casuals.

I bet that at least 80% people in the crowds didn't even know there's ATT gym in Zagreb. Nobody cares about ATT or Brazil in Croatia, nor was Junior treated or hyped favorably, it was just that Junior had more fans from before, combined with his nice personality.
 
He screwed himself by accepting this fight. He would have been given a TS anyways. It was a dumb decision on his part.
 
"Physical malfunction"

Did he have the toots in the octagon ?
 
He's always been a bit weird, but he came across as delusional and very bitter on the mma hour.

Where are all the trolls saying it's only Brazilians with excuses?
 
people here dont understand that fighters have a belief in themselves that normal people consider arrogance. 99% of people need that or else you wont be at the top.
 
He should've just said he was inefficient with his energy.
 
1. I was injured
2. I was fighting at half my capacity
3. I should not have taken the fight
4. Croatian crowd did not like me
5. ATT had a camp there and they organized the crowd against me
6. JDS has relatives in Croatia
7. JDS was scared of me
8. JDS is scared of my grappling
8. JDS did not wan't to engage on the ground with me

But, he does not want to make any excuses!

What a joke.

Big Ben's Big Book of Excuses book deal being made as we speak
 
Doesn't sound like Rothwell is taking the loss very well. Not using the " fighter making excuses " line but a little disappointed on how he downplayed JDS's win. Stating how if he could have grappled more and got the takedown the fight would have been finished, also how he thought the fight was close and he won the 5th round... Regretting taking a guy on a loss...

Calling everyone out saying they are on PED's

I dunno ...

Thoughts ?

The thing is, the fight already happened and this kimd of talk makes you beleive he has nothing to work on.

Basically here ben is saying if his other half(shadow?) showed up JDS not only loses but gets finished.
 
This whole sport is filled with clowns like this.

Big Rig being the worst.

Chris Weidman is climbing the shit stick as well.

yes his mind needs that so he has a reason to train. basically train and make sure that version hes talking about shows up next time. me and you might believe that version doesnt exist but in the mind of rothwell he surely believes that it does and he has to. fighter mentality is pretty arrogant when it comes to how much they believe in themselves compared to regular people.
 
Just listened to this interview, what a whinger. Never liked Rothwell and this interview really hammered home a lot of the reasons why. He's delusional and a no class cry baby known past cheater. Imma go rewatch JDS outclass him for 25 minutes, right now, just for the lulz
