If his technique is bad than how did he beat Hall with it? Mind you he didnt use wrestling to win that fight and Urijah is consider to be a very good striker. Ko'ed Moose with a kick and in the second fight had him wrestling him to get the win instead of striking with him.
Because when you shadow box you're not suppose to fully extend into shots. He does it with jabs and straights which usually okay. The hooks are exaggerated by the elbow being very high. This is done to work on having hooks go over opponents punches and to generate better power through the different hook angles.It's weird, his shadow boxing looks terrible. Yet he looks like a very solid and well balanced striker in the cage
Forget it.@drbolony so I give you examples of Urijah hall outstriking a very good striker Moose in their first fight and then Moose having to resort to wrestling Urijah to beat him as a way to show you he is a good striker and you tell me I dont know nothing? You are aware that Urijah also had a very close fight with the champ as well? The champ wasnt able to put Urijah away but Costa was able to make him crumble with his power. I am not saying Costa has very good technique but when you add his power to what he knows then that is good enough for this division. Dude's power is good enough for him to be one of the most dangerous fighters at MW.
I am not saying the guy is some dynamic striker. He is good at what he does and his power carries it.
@drbolony Are you even a real Doctor dude? Is that just a lie too?
Bumping to ask.. Is that guy polishing his ROD?

Well Hall isn't consistent, like at all. One day he's champ material, top 10 ko highlight in history, and the next day he folds under the tiniest of pressure. Never bank on Uriah Hall, but I really like the guy.If his technique is bad than how did he beat Hall with it?
