LEG KICK TO THE BODY AND ITS ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL OVER

 

[stalehotdog]

Kazmat has been handicapping himself and sandbagging this whole time. Now that he’s finally facing an elite fighter he’s revealing his true form and has grown out his hair. Kazmat “Samson” Chimaev is born.

He grew his hair out to be a cushion for his head when it crashes to the mat from a Whittaker high kick.

Weigh in Shookology observations and bets

Okay gangsters. Having carefully dissected the ceremonials and face offs, I have judged the following bouts to be a DEAD CERT outcome, based upon my expert level Sherdog shookology analyses. I've used the following methods of proven psychological steps: How they look at one another. Their face...

Uh oh drama. Who’s shook now.

 

[Lycandroid]

What does it take to be an expert on shaking guys without getting carpal tunnel ?

 

[Trabaho]

Shookology shook nomenclature phylum aggressive shook

Exactly what I was trying to convey

 

[AngryWeasel]

Leg kick to the upper boddy for the concussion tko.

No can defend

 

[Lord Pyjamas]

I love the science of shookology.
Wish they offered it at my university. Instead I had to settle for a business degree

I thought it was included in Cognitive Science.
Just left that shit and never came back after learning it wasn't.
(me flunking tests had nothing to do with that decision).

Let's define Shookology better to advance SherScienceTM.

Using a 0-10 shook rating score here. 0 being not shook at all. 10 being SHOOKED AF.

Magomedov vs Petrosyan
Magomedov smiling because he knows he's going to destroy this guy's upper body with leg kicks to a TKO.

HUH?

Destroy his body with leg kicks?

Da fuck you going on about?

Magomedov vs Petrosyan
Cordial smiling, a little jabbering. But both fighters smiling for difference reasons...Petrosyan smiling because he's happy to be there. Magomedov smiling because he knows he's going to destroy this guy's upper body with leg kicks to a TKO.

Shook level:
Magomed - 0
Petrosyan - 6.5

Ige vs Murphy
Murphy is imposing. Ige is feeling the height advantage and knows this guy has never lost a fight before.

Shook level:
Murphy - 0
Ige - 8.5

Ankalaev vs Rakic
Magomed is stoic, calm, reserve. As exepcted. Maybe slightly shook. Rakic looks dialed in. Locked in. Zero shook in his body.

Shook level:
Magomed - 1.5
Rakic - 0

Chimaev vs Whittaker
Khamzat is unfazed by Robert's clinching jaw. Robert is hyperventaliting to overcompensate from the internel shook he's feeling. Khamzat is cool as a cucumber.

Shook level:
Khamzat - 0
Whittaker - 7.5

Topuria vs Holloway
Topuria is so shook he just can't keep his mouth shut. He disguises his shookness by talking. He just can't help it. Max just quietly nods his head. He's been here so many times. This is a lopsided shook-off here.

Holloway - 0
Topuria - 9.4

Hard disagree on some of these.

You attend Devry?

[TGArthur]

Danny ige is the last person I would assess having any level of shookness

-Armen has a look of relief, As if he knows his time in the UFC is over and he can move toward the next chapter in life. 6/10
-Sharabutin knows he was handpicked an easy match up, Gets to do silly spinning shit with confidence. 1/10
-Ige, Murphy both ready for war, 0/10
-Magomed is a bit shook. His opponent towers over him, He feels confident, but small. 3/10
-Rakic looks clinically insane, Could be playing crazy to shake his opponent, which shows a small lack of confidence. 2.5/10
-Whittaker looks as he often looks, but I think he's trying to be a little bit meaner today, to intimidate his opponent. 2/10
-Khamzat is oozing confidence here, as most undefeated fighters do. 0/10
-Illa is worried looking into this living mirror of what he might become, A former FW champion who eats headshots for breakfast. 6/10
-Max has his hawaiian "chill" demeanor but Shookology suggests the distance he is keeping is for his own saftey, He does not want to be any closer to illa, would like him futher away if possible. 4/10
