The reason Cyril Gane has little chance against Tom Aspinall

[Captain Herb]

Dropped, but immediately popped up, able to immediately recover on solid legs, unhindered balance, and then immediately hurt Tuivasa.

So, yeah, there wasn't any danger of him being out and finished.

Had that been Tom he would've been finished, I can guarantee you that.

Fuck, if you're going to claim that Tuivasa had him in any actual trouble, then it's not worth bothering with you.

He recovered extremely quickly once he made contact with the cage (credit to Gane because quick recovery is extremely underrated in MMA), but if you think that punch didn't scramble his brains for a second, you've never been around fighting. You don't fall the way he did with both legs going straight and stiff for a second if you're completely with it.

You didn’t watch the fight did you? Tuivasa dropped him and had him almost finished. Even gane admitted he was out for a brief second. I’d consider that “actual trouble”, yeah.

Did watch the fight. Saw Gane immediately get back to his feet, on solid legs, start striking back and had Tuivasa hurt the reeling backward in less than 30 seconds.

Hurt him, briefly, nothing remotely resembling Gane being in a position where he was in danger of being finished.

Calling that asleep only shows you have worse reading comprehension than a second grader. Attacking an argument i never made.

And you are still wrong. Everyone can see Tuivasa had him in trouble there. You can pretend the video doesn't show what it does but Everyone else doesn't have to indulge your delusions.

No, my reading comprehension is fine. I assumed you were the person I originally responded to.

He immediately got right back to his feet, wits fully about him, legs steady, and started striking back and got Tuivasa into much worse trouble, almost immediately.

If you think that qualifies as actual "trouble," you don't know anything about MMA.

Doesn't matter. Heavyweight. Don't need skills, just 1 punch.

I'm pretty sure Ciryl said in an interview after that fight that he didn't even know where he was after getting up from that shot. Took him a few seconds for sure to get the lights back on. He definitely got hurt alright.

Absolutely. His instincts were good, he did exactly what he needed to so he could avoid follow up shots and stay in the fight. But that was clearly a shot that hurt him for a couple seconds.

gane can easily catch him, especially if aspinalls hubris catches up with him, and he thinks he's mr K1 all of a sudden. tom blew out his knee just moving on a flat surface. those kinds of bio mechanics when met with actual striking knowledge, can lead to some brown sauce

At least in your previous post to this one you admit he hurt him

After video evidence was posted clearly showing he hurt him you had to tone down your lies/stupidity

"Thinks he's mr k1"

His UFC career to date pretty much proves his striking is shit hot. More effective than Ganes

I never denied he was hurt by that punch. I responded to a post that claimed he was nearly finished, or was "asleep" by pointing out that no such thing happened.

None of that changed, because I looked at that video months ago when others were making the same claim about him being "almost finished."

I didn't tone down anything, as I've been saying the same thing about what happened the entire time.

This is your first contribution i believe

Good job you backed down from this indefensible position at last

 

[Rampage_Jackson]

I want gane to win, So I hope you're right

Tom will blow Gane away if he tries to exchange at all he has to run away to keep consciousness

 

[TOMFDJYEDH]

I know the real reason guys, its that Tom is a far superior mixed martial artist.

 

[CombatCyborg]

It;s a really good fight. Gane is good enough that Ngannou couldn't connect in their fight, albeit they trained together for years. Tom's punches are straighter, but he'll have to think about strikes coming back. We could see a situation where Tom gets frustrated on the feet before taking Gane down, like Ngannou did.

Whenever I see the, "________ has little to no chance" threads, I always get a chuckle.

Folks never learn.

Agreed. It's a fight and anything can happen.

 

[linvillegorge]

Aspinall is just the better, far more well rounded fighter. Now with that said, Aspinall does fight with hands low on the feet primarily relying on reflexes for defense. That's admittedly a dangerous game to play with a striker of Gane's caliber. Anyone getting KO'd at HW can't be seen as completely shocking

 

[Doughie99]

Gane can win if he avoids the ground game and survives the onslaught of the first two rounds.

I don't see any way Gane can avoid ending up on the mat.
I really don't think Tom Aspinall has ANY intentions of letting this fight even get to rd 2.

I'd say this fight lasts 3mins max, possibly quite a bit less.

I didn't back down from it at all. Goodness, you're an illiterate moron if you think my narrative changed, at all.

As I've constatantly stated, he bounced right back up to his feet, was on steadly legs, had his wits about him and started dealing damage right back. That would mean being knocked off his feet for a fleeting moment wasn't any kind of real danger or trouble for him.

That's not being in any "actual trouble." It's a flash knockdown with pretty much zero after-effects.
