The importance of the mindset of a champion

[vigneshm1995]

All three of them made the same mistake - utter disrespect for their opponent's abilities. wish other champions and highly ranked fighters learn a lesson from these fights when they fight lower ranked guys

I'm a fan of Rockhold but Bisping made him look really bad. He kinda deserved a humbling imo

couldn't agree more. Rock hold actually grew on me after making weideman look like a bum. Then he got way too cocky and careless against bisping, pillowfists or not, that shit ain't cool.

I think it's a kick in the pants to the UFC and that division to get it's shit together. I mean seriously! bisping as champ?!?! Give me a break. That is straight up laughable and a joke. His reign won't be long but definitely a humbling experience for all involved.

Give the king a break. It's 4am in New York City and I got up to pee. I though bisping being champ was a weird dream...now I realize it's just a sick joke.

Bisping will succumb to the deadly jaws of the alligator real soon.

Conor doesn't have the mindset of a champ

That's hilarious

He can't even defend his belt

He's active and healthy and making ufc do an interim belt
Pathetic

I was referring to Aldo's mindset and how he lunged forward with no respect for his opponent's power

Conor is irrelevant to my thread. Not everything needs to be about him

Let's just shorten it to "Conor is irrelevant"

Don't forget this gem. Although Silva got bored and stop respecting his opponents long before Weidman.

Takes a pretty strong will to go undefeated for so long and still have same hunger that you had when you were fighting to become a champion.

You are over analyzing this. The only person who truly disrespected his opponent MIGHT have been Rockhold.

Werdum was rocked before he went chasing. It is common for a guy to go for a desperation shot or punches when they are badly hurt. He was also feeling the pressure of fighting in his home town.

Aldo did not disrespect Connor either. He went for a punch that was available but Conor read it and perfectly countered it. You dont go nine years undefeated by looking past a fighter, especially considering Aldo wanted to win this fight more than anything. If anything, he could have been feeling pressure fearing defeat.

 

[genecop]

GSP never looked past anyone..that's why he was the Champ

 

[Lucifer Alpha]

That's one of the reasons Mighty Mouse is my favorite fighter. He's not retarded.

I might agree with the Aldo situation but Werdum is smart enough to change his game plan after getting clipped , he was hoping Stipe would shoot if he pushed forward

Not sure Ronda belongs here. Holm was just better.

I wouldn't say Ronda lost because she didn't respect Holly's abilities
All the other fighters i mentioned actually have a chance of winning their respective rematches (if they earn it)

Ronda lost because she sucks
